    The Eagle has landed aka DH. Need to go and collect him in about 30 minutes.

    WM1 on
    Bed stripped
    Some back garden jobs done, hope to get another HH out there later

    Lunchtime now, may pop out and get some finger rolls and do a bit of a BBQ as everybody will be home. I'll see what I have in the freezer.

    Can you put a nappy on it Mrs MP?

    I thought I was making a large wholemeal loaf in the breadmaker. I've just turned out a housebrick. As I did so I realised I'd forgotten to put the yeast in. Not one of my brighter moments. Any suggestions for uses for the lump?
    Better is good enough.

    Door stop, HoneyB?:rotfl: Not just me that does that then!

    Helen - Did you catch the mule I flung your way? Can you please return it now as I may need it later? Pretty please?

    Lamb Tagine is now on - didn't have half the ingredients but it true OS fashion I just decided to wing it with what we had in. I'm sure brandy and a splash of balsamic works just as well as red wine :o

    Other than clearing up after myself in the kitchen, there will be no more flying today. My feet are swollen with driving around in the heat and I have to be on them for another 5 hours tonight at Job 2.

    How's the alcove, Pigpen?
    Well done, Mrs MP
    Fingers crossed still for Dusty's friend.
    Tax Credit office on industrial action then? Cool, that's another job put off until next week then :D

    How's the alcove, Pigpen?

    untouched.. My sister came round with my poxy niece.. hopefully shared some germans.
    My Tesco delivery arrived..

    Then... we went to Tesco... so after a half hour walk round there I am in fact quite dead! I needed some bits which either cannot be ordered online or I needed to choose in person.

    DD2's bracelet for her prom arrived.. it is very lovely.. it needs a proper clasp but it is very nice.

    I have decluttered some mouldy bits from the fridge and scoffed the last bit of lasagne so rice krispies for dinner it is!
