    Narco thanks for your gardening tip. My pea germination was awful this year, just a few made it so I'll try your way next year.

    There's still time for another lot. I always soak them in water for at least 24hrs before sowing, same with beans.

    Tiddles last day at her current primary school.. went in to tell the staff and ended uo them blubbering on me so I did it back.. !!!!!!.... I need to get a grip!

    The kitchen is disgusting so I am shifting the table when I've slurped my cuppa ... I wonder if OH will take over given I can barely walk today.. I've been awake since 6 with the pain. I didn't use the crutches while trotting around the new primary yesterday so I'll pay for that today..

  • I was meant to get up at 7 this morning to make a start but I ended up sleeping in and didn't get up till almost 9.

    I have spent the past hour getting showered and dressed then running around tidying the living room, as I have midwife coming out at some point between 10 and 1.

    Currently sitting with my feet up watching animal frontline and catching up with the thread. After I have watched this I will make a start on cleaning the kitchen and do HH ironing (hopefully mw will not arrive whilst I am doing this).
