And we are delighted.Valli I think your weed is hairy bitter cress, and it's a menace. If you pick the small rosettes before flowering they are edible. It does explode seeds everywhere.

Evening all! Been a bit MIA, have caught up with thread and can confirm I have done the bathroom and a bit of ironing today.
Cats have been released through the electronic cat flap today. The brave one is having a great time, the cautious one less so.
Had a great day today with my Mums Club, we took the kids to pizza express and then horrible histories theatre show. We all met when the eldest babies were tiny do have known each other 7 years now. There were 19 of us today inc kids but it wasn't the full gang. We've got our 3rd annual spa weekend in a fortnights time. SOOO looking forward to it !!!!!!:j:j:j:j0 -

Been really fed up today - not for any particular reason just really really bored.Nothing on the telly worth my attention so have just been pootling round doing nothing remotely exciting.
Never mind tomorrow should be a lovely day.It would have been my favourite Aunties birthday but we sadly lost her last October aged 87 after a long illness.Only myself and Mum could attend the funeral as she lived over 250miles away so the whole clan are gathering for Sunday lunch in her memory.Will be a sad but very happy occasion as she was such an amazing, stylish lady and very much my role model when I was a little girl.
Mr E always teased her that he holds her 100% responsible for my lifeling obsession with handbags as it was her who bought me my very first one when I was about 7. :rotfl:
She has so kindly left me a sizeable and totally unexpected bequest in her will and it is my dearest wish that I buy something really special to keep her memory alive....any guesses what I will be buying?
Night all
Elastic x x
awww she sounds as though she was wonderful (and do we get a photo of the .... handbag?)Must use my stash up!0 -
I have been pottering. Hubby on the sofa and me trying to nip off to squeeze bits in.
Nipped off to the toilet earlier and cleaned the sink and toilet while I was in there. Hubby totally oblivious. He thinks we have fairies that do it all!

Nipping in, we've moved again, never settled in the last house and now most of the stuff is here I need to declutter & get us organised.
Trying to work a way of keeping up with the group so I've added a link to my phone for now, see if that helps
I need to get to the bottom of mount wash more but as I have a small utility now I've managed to buy a second hand second drier which is helping
Off to read a bit, see if I can find my mojos
Hope you're all well and cyclingyorkie your news made me smileOne day I might be more organised...........

Morning all. Up at silly o'clock for a weekend as we have a new routine in our house now that DD has left. LittleyDog stays in her room until DH leaves for the paid stuff at 4.30 then she comes and jumps on our bed and stays with me. It is a compromise! BUT she won't sleep in later than 7am, it's like she's got a built in alarm clock.
Elasticmoney, enjoy your day today and your handbag when you get it.
Today this is my list at the moment:
Put beef in slow cooker
Water house plant
Breakfast
WUDUPA (incs last nights)
Gym
Bath
Walk dogs popping to farm for veg on way
Hoover and mop through house
Make two cushion covers (no excuses Jazee, get this job completed today)
Declutter something
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Morning all
Well I sorted my wardrobe and drawers yesterday - 5 binbags for the CS, 4 bags for DS's school and 1 binbag of rubbish!
Plan for today is to clear the surfaces in there I think. Not planning on going anywhere as we've had a bit more snow so everywhere is icy.
Yorkie - Congratulations to your DD!
Have a good day all
Hugs
