    Morning all

    A VERY slow start for me today as by the end of yesterday I could hardly walk after two days in a row on my feet. I was doing a very good impression of 'Mrs Overall' from Acorn Antiques last night :o

    * breakfast made for 3 of us
    * white towels collected & in WM
    * plastic bottles and card/paper into the recycling box

    That's it so far, back later ;)

    ETA Valli your DS and mine are in the same school year then, only mine isn't 18 until August. I thought children were classed as 'child' in the final year of education, ie, year 13 & doing A levels in our case, when they still receive CB and are counted as 'young person' on any Tax Credit award. So both our DS are in the same category even though they are almost a year apart; it's the school year that classifies them. I'm sure you have a very strong case and I'm right behind you!

    I missed yesterday's postings as I went out and bought a car! Now I've got to read back and see what everyone's dragging me into for next week!:p

    M&D arrived back from Cuba this morning and are disappearing to the caravan for a few days after coming here for dinner about 2ish so I need to hoover through and have a bit of a tidy up.

    My daughter is in the same year, 18 in July... My oldest son I got CB/tax credits until he was hearly 20.. he is a September birthday so was 19 in the September, did his A-Levels the June/July and was 20 in the September and he was classed as 'child' until that August.

    Decluttered a plain scone.. it had too much baking powder in .. bleurgh!!!

    So hex is the culprit - the most I can fit in is 7 days though as it doesn't start until tomorrow. Can you let me have your areas and I'll see what I can work round it?
