CY (((gentle HUGS))) - sorry your so-called friend doesn't do "horrid stuff". I'm afraid she's going to find out at some stage that "!!!!!! happens" and one has to deal with it accordingly.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Morning all. About to catch up with Monday's kitchen jobs.
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Morning all :wave:
I've been up since 03:15, as I had to take DH to the airport for an early flight - he's off playing with steam trains in Poland for a weekWoke to find the car still covered in snow from last night's blizzard (NB we're in the West Midlands region, not the north of Scotland :eek:) and it took us a quarter of an hour to clear the windows sufficiently to see out, even with the heater on full blast. The snow had melted and then re-frozen in thick icy lumps, and even after three quarters of an hour's drive in each direction to and from the airport there is still snow/ice on the roof and bonnet :snow_grin Kazwookie, I was thinking about you and it being "too late" to plant stuff out - no way! (unless you want ready-frozen peas).
But we've had a beautiful sunrise this morning
Welcome back Lemanie.
CY, glad you got to your book club.

iona:wave: from clear blue sky, glorious (but cold) Scottish sun.
Not up as early as you, but a productive morning nevertheless. I think I have finally perfected my GF Healthy Chocolate Brownie recipe. (Still cooling and a little too early to taste test but it looks lovely and gooey!)

Taking it easy still today, I'm still not feeling myself but I've got a cold which isn't helping. So its more sewing for me today.

Off to start my day :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Morning ladies!
Ground floors currently in the process of being broken up so I have retreated to the caravan.
Have made enquiries about the cost of moving the electricity meter and now need to ring the dog cage manufacturer to organise installation. Also have to pop something to the engraver, do a tip run and collect Tiny from nursery (after lunch)...
Cuppa first...0 -
Right, I'm in, let's blitz this house! Still going on decluttering - old bank statements today (I've read Martin's guide, where would we be without him). I also need to find a plumber - any websites you'd recommend? And I think I'll accept that I will never clean my oven - Piggers I think I read you have someone come and do it. How does it work? Do they put stuff on and come back? Is it just for a fancy oven, rather than normal?
I'll read back when I'm flagging for inspiration...0
