    Ionafan, great house, is it a hobby or have you made it for somebody?

    It's something I enjoy doing but I don't earn a living by it. I am retired from the paid stuff and now spend a lot of my time co-writing Bible study courses with a difference for housegroups - the difference being that we develop ideas through different themes with 2- and 3D illustrations. In the case of the Georgian house, the themes were "Inheritance" and "Young and Old". IYSWIM.

    Anyone is welcome to PM me if you want to know more. I appreciate that there are likely to be MSE members present who think religion and flying don't mix, and I would not want to annoy them by taking up further space on the thread.

    Done

    Washing folded and put away, 1 washload hung, steamed the floors downstairs, kitchen blitzed and shone, my bedroom 3/4 done !!. If only i could mealplan for the week, sort my papers and do last bit of bedroom today, I would be a very happy bunny.

    thanks for clearing that up
    Jennyjewel/Kazwookie - thanks very much re the oven cleaner i think i need a spray, as i cant get to the roof as element in way !!
    Juliejim - hope your shoulder gets better, not sure what voltarol is, but if its like deep heat, i use that with my daughter, who used to get loads of sports aches and it did the trick after a hot bath
    Dumbe - welcome
    BonnieBumpkins Yes, i know the :cry: feeling dd went uni last Saturday. Her new room was a tip, and she sent pic saying "i tidied my room". Keep getting text saying im in Tesco, i don't know what to buy. I suppose she will learn, i thought i taught her better !!! p.s. Foxtrot oscar sounds about right.
    Goodintentions - my daughter has only been there just over a week and she refers to uni as home, brought a lump to my throat, but at least shes settled.

    Evening all

    Did settle to a bit of flying then paperwork for meeting, then meeting.

    DS3 away on a residential and it feels odd
    Fallen out with DS1 again, over the same issue as ever so feeling rather miffed and frustrated and hurt.

    Going to bung some fish fingers into the AGA for my dinner, DS2 cooking his own dinner and DS1 can do the same if he wants to eat! I'll file all the papers on the table whilst they are cooking rather than move the pile like I usually do.
