Yes, Ed funny how it becomes a game!
We have a 24 hour rule ... if it's still lurking after 24 hours it's fair game for the sealed pot! The thing is that Mr. Hbbb thinks he's found a second spot for his pocket pennies, which he hasn't shared the secret location of ... but I'm not sharing the fact that I'm onto him ...Stash busting 2014 45 / 60 (balls of yarn)!

Gosh, busy one all round I think!MFW actions:
* NSD (by the skin of my teeth, you have no idea how close I came to succumbing to a yarn purchase which would have been a definite want, not need). However, the fact I still have my last telling off from GallyGirl ringing in my ears was enough to keep me on the straight and narrow ...! :rotfl:
* 100 day SMASH day 2 / 100 - and we're off with a £100 MOP contribution from Mr. Hbbb's account, as he's sorted out his pay / money for May. So, the ball is now rolling: £ 100 / £ 3,000.
* Over 45 mins of my working day spent in exchange of emails to the person who eventually owned up to being able to help me in pursuit of monies owed for uni work, so hopefully that will be winging its way soon!Grey Clouds:
Got all excited about early night and Fargo catch up last night only to find that it isn't actually available until tonight! So ...Silver Lining:
Tonight's early night is all mapped out, although I do actually still have some work to finish before then, for big meeting tomorrow!Daily declutter:
Nothing left the house today, really busy day so haven't been able to fill the charity bag either. However, do plan to go through a drawer before I leave for meeting tomorrow and liberate all old under-bolster garments that don't fit any more and drop into unwanted textiles bin which is close to meeting venue!Simple pleasures:
* Wandering up the garden with Mr. Hbbb after dinner to look at the passion flower which has suddenly bloomed after 3 years - and in the hen zone too! Lovely pics taken but can't find lead to upload so will try to share this tomorrow.
* Orange based meal: homemade lentil soup followed by super-ripe mango!
Hope everyone is OK, big hugs as needed xStash busting 2014 45 / 60 (balls of yarn)!

I always think passion flowers look too exotic to be grown in this country, gorgeous flowers, can't wait to see your pic.
My mouth is watering at the thought of super-ripe mango ~ has to be one of my favourite fruits :drool:'A watched potato will never chit'...0 -
Hello Hbbb
Loving the picture of Bessie
My Bluebelle was beautiful to look at but a rubbish layer... my Speckledy on the other hand was both beautiful and a good layer even in her old age :T

The drooling smilie is about right PP, I can't seem to eat mango without getting in a right old messphotos tomorrow with luck and you're right, very exotic looking! It's the one thing that can grow in the chicken area because they won't eat it! x
