    Middle room and hallway vacuumed.
    Kitchen wiped after Squeak decided to do a Winnie the Turd impression and spread honey all over the place.. inc. herself!!
    Bubble machine fixified.

    OH reminced the grass.. cos it really needed doing a third time this week!

    Best go do dinner because noone else will! There is a line full of washing to bring in too and fold them OH and DS3 can put it all away!

    Dot outside in the garden on her mat.. surrounded by cushions in case she flings herself.. I can see her from here so she isn't being neglected.

    *yaaaawwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnn*

    Is it bed time yet???

    Managed a BBQ for dinner between the showers
    DS3 temp on the rise again
    DS1 not feeling well, possible sinus infection (I have spare ABs in the cupboard which will be dished to him tomorrow, I'm not going anywhere medical this week!)

    Off to phone my mother and then ironing with the evening olympics so probably see you all on the other side.

    Well, I dunked the tots, and they are fast asleep, and I have framed myself and stripped and remade my bed. Will be an early night for me, although I do feel heaps better. Been watching the Olympics today. Didn't think I'd be bothered but finding it watchable...

    Things I need to do this week:
    Sort August birthdays.
    Paint shed door.
    Sort out HL fund.
    Hand wash my dress.
    Get rid of bed base.
    Emulsion dining room and downstairs loo (end of decorating this year...)

    But tonight, sleep. Night night x
    Bossymoo

    Away with the fairies :beer:

    I've been on my feet all day at the carnival but we've raised £100 so that's good so I'm shattered and going to bed.

    Night all

    If they are not playing ball (and they should be, as you say a £3.50 basic iron should NOT be performing better that the steam generator iron) remind them of the SoGA (Sale of Goods Act - which states that 'goods should be fit for the purpose intended'. And it is the retailer's responsibility too.

    Electrics blew. Washer appeared to be problem; fuse changed in washer, fuse tested, washer still wont play. It is 'electrically dead'. A few months back I had new bushes fitted to it - and that was £50 :eek:
    ExH had sense to offer to take a load of washing with him, for us. I removed my panties from the washload first...well, it didn't seem right, somehow:rotfl:

    So this year I have 'lost'

    one iron
    one kettle
    one TV

    and now a washer....

    bear in mind I have just had a new kitchen :eek: time

    Does anyone want to buy a child...don't think I have anything else I can list now...:rotfl:

    They were fab, as it turns out - no questions or queries and happily refunded me. New one (£10 dearer) is fantastic - tried it out for 2 hours last night! :)
