    Self cleaning doesn't mean it doesn't drop bits of food that burn to the bottom and never come off.. oven liner!

    Mumto5 Good luck for Monday, hope you get that one. Doesn't sound like the other one was up to much.
    I've applied for one that sounds perfect for me (apart from the fact it's full-time), keeping my fingers tightly crossed.

    Hi all. I am a lurker on this thread and am in awe of how much you all achieve. I am pretty OK with level 1 but level 2 and 3 is much more occasional. I hope that someone can help me; is there a particular time of the year that moth repellants should be refreshed and replaced? If so, when is it? If the answer is somewhere I should have found I apologise but would be grateful if you could point me to it. Keep flying....

    Remind me again - this dating thing, is it normal to be thinking how little I can get away with doing?

    ie, no poncey clothes, but a new clean T-shirt will do with the newest jeans, a halfway decent pair of trainers and some makeup/perfume/put a bit of effort into the hair?


    (as you may guess, I'm aiming for effortlessly cool)

    I think so. My oh used to say he liked that I didn't look too different when we woke up lol. I suppose that meant he preferred the natural look.

    Basics and a little bit of deep for us today. DS is even more spotty and starting to be itchy. DD has one little pimple on her leg. Dunno if it's the pox or not.

    Not much else...

    sounds perfect Jojo... that sounds like a LOT of effort :p... He better be worthy of all that effort and you! Have a lovely evening(s) I would kill for a night out.. with anyone!.. can't get a sitter for Dot so one of us has to stay home and I feel bad going out with my friends when OH has none here.

    Nothing achieved today.. AF and 3 of her friends visiting I think! 3 lots of clothes this evening alone!!!

    It was a fun night, ladies...being myself made it a lot more relaxed, too.


    I could get used to this dating lark........:)
