    clutterfree - glad you're feeling better...........post migraine, not a good feeling.

    I count garden rubbish in with 'clutter' especially as it was OH who created it ! Yesterday afternoon he re-potted a Hydrangea that was in desparate need of more root space and there's muck everywhere..........thats without the bits of dandelion he pulled up !!And where's he gone now when he could be clearing it up ?? To the pub to meet his mates !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So, today

    Out..............nothing
    In................nothing

    Missyg.. get a better bra.. and flaunt your assets! lol.. they aren't obscene!.. my 3 year old tells me off for having my boobs hanging out and tries tucking them back in! lol

    Lmao Pigpen! :rotfl: Cheeky so and so, implying my fabulous 30E bras could be BETTER?!!! :rotfl:

    It's not just a bit of cleavage we're talking here, it's the fact that because of the weight loss, if I sit down or lean over in this dress, virtually the entire bra is on display :rotfl: I'm proud of my assets - but not enough to want to share them quite that much :rotfl:

    It certainly does! We put 15 bags of cut grass out for the recycling people last Friday and our garden looks a LOT less cluttered because of it! And we threw out about 100 dog poos that were scattered across the lawn :eek:

    My OH constructed a 'pooch patch' as we call it.

    It measures about 100cm x 100cm or yard x yard or 3ft x 3ft (sorry don't know if you're imperial or metric).

    It is basically a patch of gravel with wooden boards around the edges to retain the gravel. It's down the bottom of the garden so well away from the house and where the children play. The dog has learnt to use this as her toilet (yes you can teach an old dog new tricks). The gravel makes it easier to shovel up the poo and bag and bin it.

    I can not imagine trying to tip toe around a garden full of poo. :eek:

    But well done for clearing it up :T

    FFM :)

    Right, as hubby is at golf I have no trasport to take bags to charity shop and they will be closed Sunday and Monday so have decided to put them out for collection on Wednesday - saves me both time and petrol. Just looks a mess with them still in the living room but beggars can't be choosers!

    OUT: (well due to go to tip!)
    4 bin bags of garden rubbish.

    IN: Nothing! :T

    EBAY: Bids totalling £25 with 41 watchers :eek: and still 8 days to go... :cool:
    :heart: Ageing is a privilege not everyone gets.

    pigpen - all that for just 10p ??????????????:confused: Surely not...........really, did you -honestly ???

    If you did, well done you and forget having to replace the 10p spent.........lol
    You've spent more than enough in bin bags and they've been a very necessary purchase.
