    me too and I haven't really started on it. But that's the list for 3 days, and other than a couple of things which really need to get done, everything else can just roll over to next week if it gets missed.

    Morning all - a gentle one here - got up late after a 6 am "seeing to the dogs" trip downstairs which was lovely. S&S'd kitchen and shower room. Went to PO with my amazon sale, did emails and then tackled the ironing ... starching shirts ... bleurghhhh... Still all done and put away now. OH is going to go and mow the field lawn as soon as he's finished on his puter - hope it isnt dark by then!!!! :rofl

    Am going to list a few more books on amazon and then spend a bit of time revising prices etc .. Nice easy day really - am out all day tomorrow on a training day with my young dog so no doubt Monday will be clearing up at home day!!!!

    Have a good day everyone ...
