    Did you not offer him any cleaning tips Bossy?? lol

    :D

    I shall be going round with some newspaper, a dustpan and brush in the morning. The silly gits have just had a blazing row outside, one shouting about his effing gearbox and another about his effing phone. Although I could hear him trying to shush his mates, one had a complete hissy fit, hurling obscenities at the others, leapt out of the car with a bottle that smashed and threatened to glass one of the others :shocked:

    I was about to call 100 then they all got in the car and whizzed away. Silly boys. I can't see where the glass is but the car was at the end of my drive so I'm guessing between mine and theirs. But I'm not going out now.

    This is usually such a nice street too. The last time anyone fell out around here was over an 11yr old playing football too close to the cars :o

    I shall be speaking to mum next week!

  • off to take DD1 to airport shortly.....getting all the young skints out of bed, (as DD2 is not home to be responsible adult for DD3 and DS) is proving a challenge

    Morning all x

    I've been awake since 5. This is probably due to the fact that DD and I were in bed by 7.30 and sleeping by 8! Still feel tired though I'm sitting here yawning my head off.
    It will be a Lazy day here at the funfair I'm going to do the hall and stairs and that will be me probably but we shall see.

    Love and hugs to all x

    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Morning all. Planned flying today:

    Hoover through house
    Cut grass
    Walk dogs

    All heat dependent, I may just end up on the sun lounger again.

    Have a great day everyone, hope your headache goes soon, Bossy.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Bossy.. report them to the RSPCA.. cruelty to fish and frogs.. I hope they found frogs in their undies!! It is quite amusing that they would be sat in the pond... though I know it probably wasn't at that God forsaken hour for you though. Subtley drop in conversation 'how did the stains in the new carpet fare??' when mummy returns ;) .. drop him right in it!

    I have one of my new comfy dresses on today... why did I not buy these years ago? I look like a huuuuuuuuge blue whale but it is so comfy.. not halterneck and all soft and comfy.

    OH and the 2 grots are still snoring.. I seem to be having one of those 'every time you move your nose starts bleeding' days so I am trying not to move too much. I am prone to nose bleeds while pregnant when it is really hot, I didn't get many with the other 2 so hopefully today is a one off. Blood down my new blue dress is NOT a good look!

    Up to 58 squares of my blanket now.. 22 to go!!!! I WILL get it finished before this sproggit arrives!!

    I have all our stuff to pack up once the beastlings are awake.. Though I think between pool and sand Squeak went through about 5 pairs of knickers yesterday and Dot wore 1 pair when she pooped in the last swim nappy!! I am NOT looking forward to the drive home.. it is too hot and it is going to take forever to pack up all the gubbins.. fortunately there is less to take back.. There is some fencey stuff staying here and a paddling pool which took up a surprising amount of boot space.

    Morning all

    Bossy so sorry you had a horrid night, pond story did make me laugh though.

    Off to collect an ebay item in a minute, not sure where it is going whilst the decorating continues. I need to list some stuff myself later.

    Today
    Clean bathroom
    Wash towels
    Finish Gov paperwork
    Ebay listing
    Hoover upstairs
    Remember to feed neighbours mogs!

    They have koi in the pond :eek: I bet they stink now, ugh.

    Feel better after some brekki, a cuppa and a shower. I ought to have told the kids to quieten down when they were out scooting at 8 ;) but I didn't.

    I went to get something from the car, and can't see any glass so either it was smashed in the car, or they've cleaned it up already...

    Hair dried, toenails re-done, kids toenails done :D DS has got bright orange :rotfl: he wanted black on his fingers :eek: but I've told him no fingers until the nail biting stops. I've said I'll paint his name on them if he stops biting :D

    Kids nattering about going for a walk so will leave the boxes of clothes until after...
