Thinking of you all Natty.

I am still reading but have had the delightful sickness bug since Wednesday so not a lot of tidying going on.

ETA Fhizzwhizz, that isn't wicked. It is exactly what you would do (and I do do!) with your own. I have SSs so I do appreciate the added complication.

Very sorry about Ollie Natty x

No flying today, I must iron we have all been better for nearly 24 hours now and I have still not done anything useful.

I also have washing to catch up with, I think if we can all go naked for the next 5-7 days it should give me a chance to wash/dry/iron all clothes lol.
