    Ponyplops has just accidentally done double exercises, she could do with some carrots!

    This has been a helluva week and it should have been an easy one.

    ebay sales going ok though, so that's something.

    Lovely full but not too mental Saturday. Got ponyplops out. Children well enough to play which is a relief.

    I need to get super ready for next week so it doesnt smack me in the face like this one did!

    I hope you get all prepped for next week Al - sorry to hear this week was hard work

    On the vegetarian meals discussion - i am not veggie now but was for years - anyway there is some meat i cannot eat as it makes me very ill and people think its ok just to serve it up all mixed in and if i pick the bits out then i'm not eating the meat :wall: Left a couple of meals we've been invited to still hungry due to this one - even though hosts are well aware of what i can't eat - maybe they're trying to tell me something? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Glad the children are well enough to play out again :T

    Sold 16 items on the bay so far but 27 unsold.

    Dedicated I think people are a bit rubbish unless they have a condition with a name...though it is very unhospitable.

    Thanks Lois. DD2 starts new school tomorrow.

    Really very pleased with the latest homebrew. Pinot Grigio.

    must be the start of a stressful week for you! ;) :rotfl:

    Well done on the ebay sales - have a pile of stuff staring at me from the living room floor that I need to think of either finding a home for or sticking on ebay but so far am being lazy and drinking tea whilst catching up on diaries! ;)

    Wine looks good, hope it tastes as good and that 7.21 was just the time you posted the picture :)
