Humungous lists there again madam - PLEASE remember to breathe!

Ooh - something I remember we found useful when we moved - might be helpful to keep an every-couple-of-days note of meter readings at the moment so that if (god forbid) you forget to take them on moving day you can provide an accurate estimate.

Happy worky day lovely - hope the sun shines on you! xx

Good plan and I think this is a great idea!

DD did googly fine thank you!

I did indeed remember to breathe and had a cheeky wee walk in a local park for 15 mins at lunchtime too between both jobs with les mutts.

Good luck to DD :j She is indeed a clever lass and she well do well I'm sure!

Loving your lists - and loving even more that you've paid the captain off! :j :j Bet that felt SO good :j :j Well done you

Thanks cheery - and chookies are a must aren't they - they might not land the first day but here's hoping

I've emailed the local chaps and we're talking chookies and timings.

OK so tonights progress

Chookie picked through and meat extracted.
Gravey made from the roast drippings
Stock a bubbling away from the bones

Did a nigella on the frog in the bog - squished out sausages as little bullets - was OK not sure I'd do it again although it made one big fat sausage go a long way
Also squished out some sausages as wee meat balls and cooked the other four as proper sausages whilst it was all cooking in oven.

Emailed council tax folks

Paid wine money to the card so £30 off the card for a few alcofrol free days.



DD had a driving lesson
Doglets went to the beach


And, aside petrol a NSD today.

Packed up a few wee bits into drawers

Decided to leave off putting boxes into the garage until I'm done with the crazy sanding.

Stoor everywhere. Bleurgh especially bad in yer drawers!

CC - 1960.05 - :eek: Last card left - £30 wine money off showing.

Emailed the campervan folks about sending spares to them.
