    What a gorgeous pup, very 'regal' :)

    Woke up scarily early, couldn't sleep for thinking of all that still needs to be done before my bro arrives at 9:30am to be ready to move! Excited, scared, happy and sad in almost equal measure right now.

    Right, time to clean those bathroom cabinets, they won't do it themselves (wish they blooming well would!)

    My god yes, good luck KK, its happened so quickly now!

    Maty - Rodders looks so lovely! Absolutely adorable.

    Pippi, don't worry about me - I'm okay really. I did absol. nothing yesterday, went out for a looong walk in 2nd half of afternoon, had a look round a new housing development on the south side of my town, gave me an interesting diversion to look at.

    I love what you said to dottygirl - we're all looking at the same sky. We are indeed. Lovely thought.

    :TInspired!:T Why on earth didnt' I think of it:j can't see the omelettes for the eggs.........

    I love that we're all under the same sky - isnt' it a quote from a movie? I've always liked the saying. With that in mind I drove home last night a took a few pictures of my commute from town, whilst its not everyones idea of a commute - driving through gorgeous scenery we often don't see what's under our noses do we?

    I'm glad you've taken it easy. :A

    :eek::eek::eek::eek: Noooooooooo :eek::eek::eek::eek:. Kettle doesn't get packed!!!!!! It goes in the car with the mugs, milk, teabags/coffee, spoon and emergency hobnobs :D.

    and bottle of wine, bottle opener and large glass, or was that just me :o

    Hope it goes well :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
