    No I don't think so Amber - I took the dog for a nice long walk yesterday but realised I don't have 4G so had no internet available so couldn't find any :o Not sure I'm cut out for all this technology lark anyway :D

    So, this morning I've stripped my bed and the first load is in the washing machine. I'm about to remake ds's bed and maybe then do the ironing. It looks like being another hot one here today, maybe I'll take the dog up the forest where it's shaded as he gets too hot in the sun.

    Ds is due back this afternoon and then I've got one and a half days at work to get through and then it's holidays-time :D
