P.S. thanks for all the tips on oven cleaning. It is the bottom really thats yucky although getting better. Oven is part of rented house and has never really been clean. Think i have to accept that its as good as its ever going to be and wipe it over after i make a roast on sundays. (DOH cooks during the week so no chance of getting him to do it!)Millions long for immortality who don't know what to do with themselves on a rainy Sunday afternoon.0 -

Go on - be brave! I did it yesterday and we are in the frozen north.
There was a marked decrease in temperature today, though....Is it home time yet?0 -
I managed to get out of the talk with DD tonight as I met my cousin at school and he invited us around tonight after tea
:j So of course we had to go and buy some pressies for baby, little girl (and DD's best friend) and mummy & daddy
When we did get there CUTE little week old baby spent over an hour asleep on my knee
We all agreed I must be comfy :rotfl: I feel all broody but OH isn't :rolleyes: I'd have to trick him into having another one and I don't think that would go down to well so I'll just have to borrow my cousins :rotfl: I've already said I'd be happy to babysit both kids for them anytime
I'm off to bed now though as I'm worn out. Will have to tackle "the question" tomorrow night after school instead...at least it gives me more time to work out what I will sayNight Night. :wave:

Didn't quite stick to the list today as was a mega busy day. Didn't make packed lunches last night so had to do it this morning.Was at work for 8 and a half hours. Collected kids, went to ASDA and spent £131.00 :eek: . Most of that on 'stuff' for DD's sleepover at weekend. Never even bought myself an alcoholic beverage to help my sanity during said sleepover. Did some ironing, nagged DD into tidying kitchen, loaded DW and did load of washing. Went to fat club too (and lost 5 lbs
) tidied round and now dead on my feet so off to bed. Catch you all tomorrow. Hopefully ahve time then to read some posts. Take care xx

Hope this posts, as internet is playing up . . .
Told you I'd get nothing done yesterday, and I didn't :rolleyes:
Today may not be much better. Woke up with a start this morning, jumped out of bed too quickly to answer the phone and have felt sick ever since!
Kids have haircuts at 1pm, mine is after work at 4pm. Other than that, nothing extra planned for the day.
