    LameWolf I know exactly what you mean about slobbery tennis balls!!! The best £3 I ever spent on my dog was for a ball flinger so I don't have to pick it up :-)

    Just got in from work, hung washing out and cooked and eaten tea. Having 15mins watching TV then I'm going to make a start on the list. Hope everyone is having a sunny smiley evening :-D

    Healing vibes and good luck vibes to all who need them!

    Also managed a trip to the cash for clothes near work with the bag of clothes and trainers I de-cluttered as part of my mammoth weekend clear out so I am richer to the tune of £6. Until tomorrow when I give £5 of it to a friend for race for life.

    Evening all

    It's been a long day. My friend did not get on very well, she has to go back on Wednesday for results of today's tests, consultant was concerned :(

    DS3's cricket team lost; trying to get him to find the positives in the performance of others

    Governors meeting was intense.

    I need to clear up the kitchen and hit the sack. Paid stuff first thing. Need to check when DH gets back into town.

    Decorator back first thing two - must remember to go and close all the windows/doors before bed.

    Sleep tight flyladies.

    Oh I'm sorry Dusty. Fingers crossed they are being over-cautious due to the family history. X
