    Honey Bear Thanks for that:A - unfortunately, I can't get in touch with the owner to ask - my guests come via the local agent, I don't have any direct contact with the owners. I do know Mary's owner's on holiday abroad til the weekend, but I'll email the agent, and mention it.

    I shall still be following the thread, but I feel a bit of a fraud if I post daily when I'm not doing proper Flying.;) I did loads last week, so I don't think the bungalow will turn into a pig-sty if I only S&S this week.:o

    I'm going to take the little lass for a walk fairly soon (as opposed to her just going out into the garden) while it's still light, I think.;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
  • Water leak fixed :j I have got some insurance sorted now, as they said the pipes are in a sorry state, and could all need replacing at some point.
    Fridge completely cleaned :A It wasn't bad, but it is good to do the whole thing every now and then rather than a shelf/drawer here & there.

    I need to pop out to get some bread & other bits. I will do a proper shop later in the week. Back soon :)

    Lamewolf I think clearing up after Mary's sprinkles qualifies you to post. I love to hear from you.

    In my HHC (9am I think)
    Cleared and wiped 3 worktops
    Cleaned kitchen window & sill
    Emptied toaster and wiped
    Wiped liquidiser (need to store away as I rarely use)
    Cleaned vases and crap which live on kitchen windowsill. Threw some away.
    Tidied throws in LR
    Received 3 parcels from Postman Pat
    Washed up
    HHC over ran a little.

    Since then
    I have been to the hairdressers
    Visted Mr T for Halloween goodies and more underbed boxes.


    Anyone fancy another HHC at 15.15 after a cuppa?

    Afternoon everyone - I really need to get back on the wagon. Kept jumping on and off but due to various restraints I kept falling off :( Anyway I am just starting to get my life back on track again, nothing major just having to readjust to a much higher dosage of my meds and a major ME flare :( As I'm also out of the house two days a week now I really need the house to be back in shape again. Oh don't get me wrong it has been okay just not deep okay - more superficial okay.

    My garden birds have all come back from their summer break - although Mr Woody seems to have come back a bit worse for wear. He has a rather gammy eye, but luckily he can still blink it. If I tried to go near him he would fly off.. So am just feeding and keeping an eye on him for now. Mr and Mrs Dove have come back but I think they seem to have brought back 9 of their friends, I think someone has stopped feeding them so they come to me now..and the amount keeps growing each day..lol I have no idea what we are feeding them that is different but the doves certainly seem to like it..lol Son of Asbo robin has made the garden his home, and is certainly asserting himself regarding his territorial rights :D We have the usual culprits of starlings and sparrows - their definately isn't a shortage of these in our garden..lol We also have our solitary coaltit, greattit and a chaffinch.

    Oh and Mr Hedgehog has returned home from somwhere, he has been seen by the dogs snooping around the garden. I have even figured out his route around the garden so am leaving hedgehog food for him, out of the way of the dogs.

    Sadly we lost one of our harvest mice in the garden, but I imagine they will have many more under the compost heap :D

    So as you can see the wildlife in the garden is still keeping active, even if I'm not..lol

    Am just going to finish watching Criminal Minds then head off to have a VERY late shower and get dressed. Don't ask :o

    Welcome to all the newbies, and welcome back to the returnees :D

    Hugs and love to all...

    Not much done today - it's half term so I don't think I will get as much house work done as normal :) We are getting new hall stairs and landing carpets on Weds so looking forward to that :D It has needed to be done for a long time! I will try to get a bit more done but having a bit of a lazy day after the madness of the last few days, anything not done today will be added to my list tomorrow x

    Thanks to Juliejim for this weeks list and Dusty for last weeks :)

    I'm back from picking the kids up, all the pumpkins are done and the WM and TD are on again. I've got about an hour before I need to start thinking about getting ready for Cubs so I think I go and do something.
