Making chicken feed of my mortgage

Yesterday sounds a delight. Sorry to hear the girls woke you up. Was it you or someone else who played classical music to their chooks?

No such luck Kate and Greying - at 06:45 there was "I-want-to-lay-a-egg-but-there's-another-chook-doing-the-deed-and-I-refuse-to-share-the-nestbox" squawking from Miss Effie... so I've done my ironing for the week (normally I'm a dry it on a hanger, iron as required person)
Not me Tilly - is it Hbbb that plays classical music or does she sing to her chickens?
:wave: Cath - I read All You Need Is Love by Carole Matthews - easy reading chicklit and I even laughed out loud a couple of times
Plan for today:
- Grocery shopping (I have another £7.50 off if you spend £50 Sainsbury's coupon)
- Mow the lawn (I did the edges and the bank by hand yesterday so now I just need to finish it off)
- RSVP to an invitation
- Pay car tax

Sorry to hear that - I've realised that lack of sleep is one of the most debilitating things there is. Hope its better tonight.2023: the year I get to buy a car0

Me too - I plan to be in bed by 9
I need one good nights sleep before Mr MWC comes home and I have to put up with his reading in bed/tossing & turning/jet lag!
After reading the weather forecast on Tilly's thread, I thought I had better prioritise mowing the lawn... just finished as it started to rain :TMortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

I was in bed by 21:10 and asleep by 21:11
Just as well because the noisy little madams woke me up 40 minutes before the alarm clock this morning :mad:
Mr MWC is home today :j
And he has bought me a pair of my favourite Eddie Bauer curvy fit jeans :kisses3:
I might as well head into the office early - the sooner I get there, the sooner I can come home!Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000
