    Oooh I shall speak to OH, I might manage the York meet.. providing it's not too early.. getting out of the house before lunch is tricky lol.

    I can probably do that one, too!

    Aww took DD to school nursery this morning, she was ever so good. She's really excited to be a big girl and wear her uniform. Looking forward to picking her up at 3.30 to see how her day went. DS was brilliant too, and said he will look after her :A

    Working from home today and quite a busy first day back, so very little done here. Have got a wash on and cleared stuff away, but rest will have to wait. Wanted to say hi, though :wave:

    4 pages already! Very industrious ladies. Well done! :rotfl:

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Happy New Year everyone!
    Thanks for the list Natty.
    List complete except desk cleaning which I'm off to do now. Was waiting for the computer to finish backing up prior to de-frag and I could turn it off to give the keyboard a good clean.
    See you tomorrow.

    Thanks, Natty, for the list. Haven't started yet as I had to go to town for some bits and bobs.
    I've got the towels in the wm at the moment so the way is clear for later on. Have to take some paperwork to a friend for tomorrow's meeting first.
    Still grey and windy here. Yuck

    Phew! Done most of the list - bits applicable to my house anyway! ;)

    Can someone please tell me how to do the strikeout thing with the text - I'd like it so much better if I can cross things off.

    Having a quick sit down now before school run.
