    Afternoon all :)

    Catching up after overnight at cousin's and getting her started with comps ;)
    She is not great on the computer but managed fine and I got her new email set up, free RoboForm installed and set up, log in for MSE of course and started her off on some of the regular puzzle comps so a good start.

    We had a nice bar meal and a good chat later so very pleasant evening.

    Had a WEM too from this comp

    for an egg decorating kit so we popped in to Silverburn and collected it-perfect for the wee GD and my first April win.

    Well done Elle - and great that you have introduced your cousin to the wonderful world of comping! Hopefully she will receive her first wen soon and pop in the Inn to say hi!

    I watched the trial this morning then did some cleaning this pm - emptied the fridge so I could clean the shelves, compartments etc. Then I did the same to some of the cupboards! Oh how I love a good clean and have planned to do a 'proper' polish and dust tomorrow - not a nook or crannie will be left with tuft of fluff! spring-cleaning-smiley-emoticon.gif

    Shiels, if it comes in bottles I will set one aside and bring you it when we meet up later in the year. Neither of us are real wine drinkers so I usually keep any I wen for presents at Christmas etc so you are welcome to one. When are you off to Harrogate?

    Well done on your prize Elle sounds lovely.

    I think I have nearly as many animals to look after as your for a while firefly, with strict instructions not to cut the front lawn as we need the dandelions for the tortoises and not to cut the back lawn as she has a pen which moves about and the rabbits/g.pigs eat the grass. Think I could do we a few animals that would come along a eat my grass :rotfl:

    Hope you have all enjoyed your day.

    SYL
