    Hairdressers. Taunton. DS' s birthday.

    My kids are such bumpkins that traffic lights with filter arrows and shops with multiple tvs on at once are a major curiosity.

    Marking marking marking.
    Trying to get free for Easter. Except I am going in to do revision at Easter.

    Hope you got free?

    I got mine to a level where I could actually get out from under it, so still need to do more.

    I'm also bored but with loads to do!!

    Enjoy your hols! xx

    Pavlovs sooo fast!

    I was so convinced he would be early that I missed by appointment at the hospital to be induced because I was in denialabout the date!

    I still have marking to do but it will wait now until after the hols.

    The smalls are off out for the day with the grandparents and I *should* be planning a productive day of life affirming activities.

    Instead I am planning to go to bed!

    Going back to bed can be pretty life affirming on the first day of the hols :)

    Did it and managed three hours!

    Just spoke to the estate agent and notalot doing. The usual "perhaps we were a bit optimistic with the price" after three weeks. Its just laziness.

    There is one with a bigger garden but no period features on at 475. There is one with a bigger garden in need of doing up and on the road with a huge re thatching needed for 340. There is a 4 bed with an annexe and a pool for 595.

    Our neighbours 3 bed with a smaller garden than ours but in perfect condition sold for 499. The rents sold theirs for 450 with a bigger garden and a pool that the purchasers have since filled in.
