    Hi all.:hello:

    Brainfog is bad today, so please forgive me for not remembering everyone's news.

    Welcome LB29 and rach pach.

    Good luck Mumto5 (interview) and CY (horse-piddle).

    Congrats on new job Mr Frizzle and on 3 months celebration FBO.

    Dusty hoping Coyote leaves you alone this week - ruddy Trickster's a pain in the arris!

    Flying off piste again, not least because Mr LW did the bathroom yesterday - he does it at the weekend because he can haul the bath-lift out for a proper scrub, but if I clean it I have to leave it in situ so it doesn't get as good a clean.

    Also I'm concentrating on Lizzie's needs this week; she's calmed down a lot from last time she stayed, but she still needs two l-o-n-g walks every day, and wants to play with her tug toy a lot of the time.:o We avoided the rain this morning, but it's tiddling down out there now, so I rather think I'll need to borrow Mr LW's wet weather gear for this afternoon's walk; and of course I'll have a soggy Spaniel to deal with at the end of it.:D

    Anyone up for a HHC at half past two?

    I'm going to do the bathroom, having had my lunch.

    Overran the HH a bit, but the bungalow has now been vacuumed, and the lounge, hall and bedroom dusted (round the heavy ornaments, I confess ;) ).
    How'd you get on, Valli? :o

    My visitors have just gone and it's now raining so can't carry on with garden. Instead I'll do bathroom list - I've got about an hour to do it in as we've got free tix for cinema tonight.
    CY hope things are good with you, hospital goes well and news is good
    Frizzle well done to your Dh on the job news
    Running to catch up with Valle who's almost completed today's list. Well done valli.

    Enjoy a well earned cuppa :coffee:

    Having a cuppa now and just contemplating what to do next ? Think I'll water the boxes and planters on the balcony whilst it's still fair out there. The wind seems to have quietened down a bit atm as it's not howling through the place.

    Crossing fingers, toes and everything else for good news for CY. Looks like joiner is nearly finished in kitchen so everything will be to set straight. The dog is to collect from my parents and both kids from different places. Might not get to my gym class tonight.
