  • hugs for your DD Nicki, i hope the bullying hasnt started again keep an eye on her and dont be afraid to ring the school and say she wont report it as she doesnt know exactly who it was but can you just be aware of this please. well done to her for helping you out sounds like knowing exactly what needs doing with the help of list will boost her confidence as she gets the flying right and she shes how good shes giving it and it also helps you out sharing the load.

    done one settee and the lazyboy they only yielded a couple of sweet wrappers a 6inch ruler and a 20p coin, but the cushions are fixed on and i use throws. got one more settee to do but im giving them a spray with the leather polish as i go.
    dragged the piano out and dusted the back and gave the skirting and windows a good clean while i was there.

    I think the Rawcliffe Bar one goes direct to the museum? Does the one from the designer outlet? I can see it goes to the station but I was going to bring a buggy.

    Had a HH tidy this morning before our friends arrive. Just having a cuddle now. Might grab one of the storage bins while the girls play upstairs, and we have coffee. Need to think about lunch. Might just be sandwiches... There's some chorizo and bean soup left for us mums.

    It's definitely the Rawcliffe Bar one you want. The Designer outlet one only goes as far as the station, and then back to the DO.

    Nicki hope bullying doesn't start up for DD - mine suffered from it and it was horrific. Glad she's finding your list useful!

    Done my paid stuff and now off to Pilates but my back is distinctly wobbly - goes into spasm so got back support on and taken parrots. Think it's from a combination of running the other day and my office chair here isn't quite right so need to sort that out but no more running til I'm fixed again. Plan to get back from Pilates, lunch, walk the dog (only a little walk) and fly .... see you later x

    Walk done and a few stretches afterwards which I need to do daily as I'm not as flexible as I was a while ago.

    Dancemum sorry I misunderstood. I've seen those results oodles of times at AS, they can be pulled around. Sciences are hard and a huge jump up from GCSE and require new skills.

    Off to put some washing in the airing cupboard and have my shower then a touch of flying.

    Cakes made. Come round for coffee, Kazwookie?

    The bara brith is great :D
    The coffee sponges which I wanted for DH's birthday have sunk :mad:
    The gluten-, sugar- and fat-free cake for which the recipe says "This always sinks" hasn't :rotfl:

    :wall:

    Well done Nicki's DD for wanting to learn how to fly properly :T Hope the bullying can be dealt with swiftly.
