    Cleaning up is not man type work. if you want men to do men type things then you shouldn't complain when they want you to do woman things.

    I've cooked FOR THE LAST TIME ON MY HOB AND OVEN

    TheLastDinner.jpg

    Please bear in mind that I didn't clean at all last week.
    The pliers (to the back of the hob, on the right), are holding the gas on as I had a little mishap and had to override the cut off. I'm like an engineer, me :rotfl:

    Pan front right is 28 years old...front knob, you'll notice, is broken...

    I'm ok at work now but I'm surrounded by 'whose going to cry today' lovely people stressed to the max... and as more people go off sick, the remainder get even more stressed. I try to help with broad shoulders to cry on, and cream cakes.

    Even more reason to look after yourself... Good Luck!

    Flying - I've done WM x 1 which should be out on a day like this but would be straight up next doors conifers. Am thinking of getting a whirlygig washing line thingy - any recommendations?



    Rx

    We have this one: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/8500856.htm

    and can heartily recommend it! I had a 3 arm one before so it always seemed lop sided but with 4 arms it's easy to balance the load - and takes lots of washing!

    Had a lovely morning out with the dogs, they had great fun off their leads! They have been comatose since we got back but are both awake now as out dinner is cooking!

    Bit of ironing to do, just had a bath, all ready for Upstairs Downstairs later! :T
    :j Almost 2 stones gone! :j
