    I am so pleased you had a good time
    and thank you for cheering me on

    dogs can be very fickle if food is around - when we stayed in norfolk last year we found two brilliant pubs that welcomed all six dogs - as a multi dog household we get lots of attention - so in the pub we they got loads and we got ignored :)

    have a great action packed day

    Oh my goodness Nora, my back is turned for a few days and there you are putting me to shame! In a good way though as I'm itching for some "me time" at home to give my poor abandoned house a cleaning blitz!

    Life is sounding really cosy and lovely for you right now. It's lovely hearing about it all.

    I think I should head off and start writing an achievement list for this weekend! Until Friday morning comes around and I can't drag myself out of bed as it's so comfy!!!

    I too get the obligatory 2am wake ups!

    I hope you're having another cosy acheivement packed day!

    Oh you lot are funny!


    Today has been about work, knitting group, lots of laughing and a pay day treat of chip shop chips.


    And I'm totally pooped! So I'm going to do a quick round of the diaries and then I'm off to bed.

    *slides chippy chips over to Scuba* Yep, Midlands chips are ok - but so far I've only found potato surprises made in the South East. And they're easily the best thing ever! *sulks*


    Not much to report today.....ONLY THAT MY LANDLORD IS HAPPY FOR ME TO HAVE A WATER METER FITTED!!!!!


    So thrilled, I can't tell you - my water bills are huge. So I'll be getting that booked in, quick smart! :D


    Other than that, it's been a hugely busy day so I'm off to rest my weary self.


    *wonders whether 5.30pm is too early for bed*

    Yay for the water meter.

    Dare I ask what a potato surprise is? It sounds to me worryingly like something I'd find in Nanny Ogg's Cookbook.....

    If you have nothing urgent to do instead then I say 5.30pm is not too early for bed, as long as you wont be awake hours earlier than you need to be tomorrow.
