Trouble is I don't fancy doing any of it!The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Dusty and Natty: Thanks for your respective lists.
Lost: One GUAG. If found, please return ASAP.
As you might gather from the above, things have slowed down a bit (or even a lot) over the last few days. If anyone feels like giving me a boot where it'll do most good, please feel free to do so.
Thanks.

I had such great plans for today, and then slept so badly that I heard the whole of Brideshead at 3.00am, followed by quite a bit of other talk radio. I'm feeling all gritty around the eyeballs.
Third WM load just about to go out on the line and then I'm off to unload a entire car boot's worth of gibble that I have collected and intend to dispose of via the scrapstore, the CS, the bottle bank, the women's refuge, the foodbank, the library, the post office and the chalet. That pretty much takes care of the rest of the day.Better is good enough.0 -
got time for another HHC 1-1.30 before DH comes home for food if anyone wants to join me
my plan is to wash up load and start the wm and put a bit of the floordrobe away if i have timeSPC~12 ot 124

Kills my back, it's normally DD2's job but she has enough to do in their pit and she's being a grumpy mare so I daren't ask.
Front room is a bit untidy so I've started on that. Sofas wiped over and throws washed, tumbled and replaced. Also one load of washing on the airer.
