DD1 on her way over as she has the day off. Will do the ironing whilst we chat. Or maybe go to the local Museum seeing as they were closed yesterday and they have a new exhibit of wedding dresses through the ages, we're both big history/local history buffs so looking forward to seeing it :cool:
Glad you've posted Goodintentions saw the news and hoped you weren't caught up in it x0 -
Can any of the Key Stage 2 techers help.
I have found a few Letts KS2 revision/study guides for Maths English and Science. They say they are the 2006 literacy framework (but I am sure they are not that old!) Will they be any good to anyone (and if so does anyone want them) or should I just fling.

have signed up for BT infinity - at the moment I'm with 2 separate providers for landline and internet and I'm just at the end of the internet contract. Done through Quidco so it looks like cash back AND a voucher for Mr S!

Nicoise salad made (may end up having it for tea if DH likes it), leftovers sorted for DS1 (tiny kitchen, so not enough space for two) and left over veggies and a few mushrooms turned into lunch for me with a bit of cream and peppered cream cheese. Need a yogurt and a cuppa now, so next HHC at 14.30 if anyone wants to join in.
Only frogs left in the kitchen ...
