Evening, I'm impressed at everyone's busy-ness.
I did get the kitchen cleared and cleaned and got a load of shopping and everything for the kids school on wednesday.
I will have to try and get up early tomorrow before it's too hot to get some cleaning doneTrying to keep in budget.

Evening! Most of the kitchen done today and I've been to the cinema and to collect just over 2lbs of rhubarb from dad. Does anyone have a rhubarb fool type recipe please? I had one involving rhubarb, jelly and condensed milk but can't find it!
I got very excited last night doing some family research as I found some relatives AND photos of my great-grandmother and great-grandfather along with some great aunts and unclesI've never seen pictures of any of them before
Tabby - both Asda and Tesco round here have black PE shorts from age 3-4. Happy to look for you if you can't find any.
And I second Valli's comments about naming everything - the supermarkets' school clothes are fab until you get a class of children back from PE with 8 identical polo shirts to put on them and none are named!!!

We also have a base for those who can't manage all day so they can have work brought to them there instead for part of the day if they are getting too tired. HTH
This happens at our secondary too.
Notice you still need to get the bus pass, posted ours yesterday and then noticed it said 20 working days. So should have done it earlier as it has been sat ready on my desk for a couple of weeks.

I have just put in a claim for a declined cashback through Quidco and raised a claim for my WM which hasn't appeared at all. I am SO glad I have developed the habit of screenshotting on line orders.
