    Did any one watch the Obsessive Compulsive programme that was on TV a couple of nights ago. I just could not believe the state of those two houses. Even in my darkest depression my house never got like either of those, although I could well understand how it happened.
    I watched it on 4oD a couple of days ago. Love that programme but i heaved a bit at the state of the nightclub toilets they had to clean to push their limits.:o

    Morning all,

    Another chilly start today. Have sorted the washing and a date and walnut cake is cooking in the oven :)

    Had an odd thing happen yesterday morning. I pulled up and parked in my usual spot on the road outside work and my remote locking zaper wouldn't work. I thought it must be a flat battery in it. While I'm fiddling and trying again my colleague pulls up behind me and the same thing happened to her. Both of us had to use our keys when we left but the next time we parked up they worked! Stumped us at the time - cue lots of laughing about Aliens. Had a google last night and apparently it has something to do with radio waves and is quite common...

    Still think the Aliens theory is more fun ;)

    DH has stuck a note on the downstairs loo saying it's turned off (Macerator) so that means him washing it down on the drive tonight - ugghh :(

    Have a good day all.

    Good morning all,
    Frosty one today after such lovely sunshine yesterday, i even did the afternoon school run without a coat! I had such high hopes for the weather, fingers crossed for the weekend, have lots of washing so would love to have the outside line available.
    Easy dinner of potatoes, ham, broccoli and cabbage for tea later- at the request of DD, apparently it is her favourite, least it is a healthy option i guess.
    Not much planned this weekend, just see where the time takes us, i do fancy a slightly quiet one tho.

    Have good days all xx

    Morning, just having a cuppa and doing my meal plan for next week - the washer is on and I have some beef to go in the slow cooker later too. Trying to be organised but at the moment just keeping the house tidy is hard enough. Planning a run to the recycling center at the weekend to get rid of some stuff and should have enough to fill a bag for the CS by then too.

    Hope everyone has a good day x

    Good afternoon everyone,

    :bdaycake: Happy Birthday Camelot, I hope you have a lovely time with your DD and enjoy your meal.

    Well had an awful day at work, which I hope will not be repeated. At least its the weekend and can forget about it.

    I'm on my own at the moment, DH is working, not sure when he will be finished. DS is away with his GF he comes home tomorrow. DD has gone off with friends to a gig in Bromley and won't be back until late tonight. I'm going out with a few friends from work, so it will be nice to have a drink and a laugh after today.

    I need to have a quick tidy up, put some towels in the wash and then get ready to go out. I will have plenty of housework to do tomorrow:rotfl:

    Have a good evening everyone x.
