    Now to do some ironing............oh, I need to pop to the shop for something for tea too........will do that first...........
    HHI at 4:30..............xx
  • Dont feel like Ive done much today.. all of the downstairs was swept and mopped yesterday so dont have to do that.
    Put away any books or DVDs hanging around, finally sorted out xmas presents sat on chair since xmas!:o I think Ive actually skimmed the tops of several clutter piles rather then tackling one!!LOL
    Bins will be emptied tonight anyway (bin day tomorrow!).
    Just off to walk dogs then still have time to make naan bread, waft the duster around and and put away laundry.
    Have to say I love this thread!!:D Even if you dont do the days tasks it still gives you incentive to do something around the house!

    I'm going to try...not heard from my colleagues yet anyway;)

    just been and washed the car in the middle of the massive washing up marathon (while the dishes drain) and that looks better. Need to do oil/water yet.

    Have to say I have been really lucky with the laundry and have been managing to peg out even when it was freezing it sried - because of the dry atmosphere. I have towels out now...

    and DS is busy hooking DDs laptop up to her TV (blowed if I know why i player I suppose...) I'm quite impressed. He must have him mums 'have-a-go' gene.

    And I found a button on my kindle - EXPERIMENTAL - blow me if it isn't an internet browser...shame it's too small for me to see without the specs but we did get onto google! Don't think I'll be posting on here from it - rather have a keyboard!

    Evening peeps

    Had a fairly tough day at work today so taking it easy this evening and DH has said we can get takeaway for tea so I dont have to cook tonight, he knows how to treat me on Valentines day (we decided we werent going to bother with the over commercialised carp this year) so happy with that. Have had a quick read through so Well done to Dustys lad on passing the theory test and glad to see some of the new peeps doing well. I would love to be able to meet up with some of the others but am too far afield and cant get a day off anyway so hope you all have a great time. Going to chase DH to sort tea now so hopefully catch you all tomorrow
