    Sorry to hear about Mary, LameWolf xx

    Yes, cat smith, I knew the 16th rang a bell, but I couldn't remember why - great memory valli. Hope to hear her news soon ((hugs)) thinking of you xx

    I have pulled up some weeds. There are still many to pull up, it's like that advert where you turn your back and they make an evil face at you and grow again :eek: I need to find my gardening gloves to tackle the brambles which are creeping in from the back. There are a couple of thistles too which are intimidating me, but I am a horticultural wuss.

    The DW needs emptying... again...

    ETA: zut alors, madame Valli - vous etes une professeure merveilleuse, j'en suis sur





    now don't tell me that's rubbish

    mais oui, mes amis, mais je n'avez pas le 'grammar'! But, you know what they say - in the land of the blind the one-eyed man is king.

    Ooh gosh, I hope she just got the fine and the ban :o

    Neighbour update: all is well, seen mum tonight, she asked how the noise was, and I just raised my eyebrows. She I'd I'll come round. Anyway. Her partner overheard, so he came out too and said "what's he done now?" (Nicely, they weren't being unpleasant) so I told them. Everything. They were very apologetic, she wasn't happy about the cannabis at all, even though she knows he does smoke it (he told her he went to the emergency dr with his asthma at the weekend :mad:) and he was warned not to bring it to the house. So I think they are more mad than me. They will replace my parasol, and make the boys pay for it. So all sorted.

    Tots in bed, I need food!

    My condolences to the bereaved.

    *relieved sigh* for FurryBeastOz.

    I seem to have been flying all day, and it's not that the sitting room, dining room and front door area don't need a going over, but I just haven't got the energy to drag the machine upstairs. I did, however, do the whole of the downstairs in the neighbour's cottage I'm looking after after the engineer fixed the boiler. I don't know when I'm going to be able to have the car to get over to the chalet to do the changeover, which absolutely has to be done by Friday for the new people.

    Last night the hungry hoards arrived back at 10.45, so dinner was at 11.00pm. They left slightly later this morning so if the day went to plan they should be back by midnight, when they'll need feeding. I think I've worked out a menu that will keep them happy and won't have me tearing my hair out.

    I cleared out both fridges and ate all of the leftovers that were cluttering them up. *stuffed*
    Better is good enough.
  • I think someone snuck in and welded my bum to the sofa.....need some help to get going as have done nothing tonight AT ALL!!!

    I cleaned the front door, damp dusted the tv unit and the sideboard. Wiped down the dining room table and all the kitchen sides.
    We had tea out in the garden then went for a walk along the prom and to get the kids an ice cream. Got the ice creams and DS decided to have an asthma attack but had no inhaler :eek:. DD and I had a very fast walk back to the car whilst DH sorted DS out and we took him home. He's much better and has gone to the driving range with DH. DD then decided to kill her leg. Need to take her to see gp soon just in case it's something other than constant prancing around her room and being generally heavy footed but I think she'll grow out of it.
    It's cooling down a little bit here now.
