 Didnt get much done last night in the bedroom so playing catch up plus today has been a no fly day due to various bits n pieces.
 Sorry you didnt get the change Valli but its good for us
 FFP - have a shoo for the BD
 Mumto5 - Hope you find th glue, the weather holds and all goes well for the moonwalk. Ouch for DD car and DS losing swimming gear again. Is there any reason he is doing it so many times this week if it upsets his eczema.
 Pollybear - That article is just downright weird, why would you brag about living in a hovel
 CY - bless your DD for writing the poem
 Jo - welcome back. There are so many other names we need to see back as well.

 can i have good weather vibes please youngest is doing a prep walk with his school this afternoon ready for a sponsored walk across the peaks in june, trying to decide if to send the light kagoule or the industrial one. had a mad dash intot he attic last night playing hunt the walking boots that fit. yes i know he should have been breaking them in for weeks but luckily they are the size his older bro wore when he did the walk so i think (hope hell be ok) as they are already worn in just not by him.
 got to ring and accept the invite my elder DS had to go to a dinner with the mayor :j hes decided to take his grandma instead of his gf as he thinks gm will enjoy the occasion of it more. sometimes they make you grind your teeth with frustration then they come out with something like that and you think you must have do something right after all.

            There's something about posting here about what's been achieved that makes me want to do more......DUH! that's the idea!!!
 Kitchen cleaned, tidying in lounge, 3 loads of washing done but then yesterday I fell downstairs so nothing got done as a bit battered and bruised. Today I will tackle inside the fridge and change the bed.
 Thanks again to all those providing inspiration to people like me who need a kick up the backside. (If I had been tidying longer I wouldn't have fallen down the stairs!!!!)'Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.' T S Eliot0
