    All done! :D Well, apart from the extras. But I've got myself into a good routine this week so am very pleased with myself. I've got up every morning after OH goes to work, rather than just lazing in bed until lunchtime, and have done all my flying in the morning, then I don't feel bad about spending the afternoon with my feet up relaxing!

    Hope everyone else is well today!

    Ah, I see. I'd never have realised.... mind you, I hadn't realised it was Wednesday til I looked at today's list.:D

    As for what I was thinking...... no, that wouldn't have occurred to me either (out of practise, I guess).:(:cool:

  • Not sure how much I'll get done today as so far I've opted for resting - like a fool I fell down the last couple of stairs this morning, hurting my right arm quite badly at the elbow and getting myself a nice lump on my head :o That'll teach me to wake up properly and put my glasses on BEFORE I go downstairs lol.

    Got to pop into town now to take some trousers back for my other half as they are rubbish lol, and also to get a new kettle as ours has finally given up today (so that gets me out of descaling it at least! :rotfl:) Have a mountain of dishes to do when I get back then will see where I go from there.
