    I have the lurgy. Upper respiratory thing. Not sure if it is mould related or just a virus.

    Airing cupboard done
    House henried
    Bathroom cleaned
    Ds2 bathed

    Ex mr boarded up's trees have been chopped down including the 20ft conifer :) our house and garden are extremely light in daytime now :) it has exposed our fence and 2 panels are badly damaged and the rest is a little rickety. I think we had a £700 quote for replacing them a couple of years ago. It will have to wait until we save up. The tree stumps have been left behind so I hope they will go soon.

    Started choreographing dances for a show in March. My tap group are dancing to a jungle book tune.

    Went to mr L for a little shop.
  • Yorkshirelass I work in thr theatre. Are they the big paper ones or the cheque sized shiny bright ones. Are they from society of london theatre? Thry dont expire so use away. Its just if there the paper ones they stopped making those about 6 years ago so you might get a funny look but dont worry they dont expire and u can still use them! X

    Oooh thank you. They are paper ones, and they say Society of London Theatre on them, all properly stamped with where they were purchased. There isnt a date on them anywhere. I thought they had gone forever but they were tucked inside something else!!

    Great post HB.

    I have just found another folder that needs shredding. I had put it to one side to deal with later. Ah well, enough for one day, time for bed I think.

    Good morning Dusty.

    Not managed to get on for a couple of days. It's been a bit hectic and then I was out partying last night. Getting in at 1am is way past my bedtime.

    Good morning, Dusty and everyone.

    Just popping in to say that I have completed my October challenges this morning - all the bulbs are now snug in the garden or in pots for indoors or in small flowerpots for dotting around the rockery when (if) DH ever gets his railway layout finished. ***'s Law meant that yesterday, when he was on the big railway all day, it was beautiful weather for working outside :mad:

    Congratulations to everyone else who has completed their challenge or made significant progress with it. LW, we do not use the F word, please - your waistcoat is very nearly finished :)

    I shall not put up a challenge list for November - I think we've all got a good idea of what we have to do, and there's nothing to stop people setting their own monthly challenge and adding it to their posts in their signature line or a weekly / daily update, then you can enjoy lots of :T :j :T from lots of flyladies sharing your joy when you've crossed something off as "done". A public announcement of good intentions certainly keeps the mind focused!

    Hope everyone has a good day. Will see you all on next week's thread x
