    In my last house Bob, I had a Fox and two cubs that would come in and play most nights. Lovely to watch :D

    Nothing much to report other than a SFD. I didn't bother going shopping and ended up going to my sister's again and finished off her ironing. She comes back from Portugal on Thursday, so I will give her house a quick dust and vac, to spruce it up. It's immaculate anyway but i will air the rooms. It's a large house so I must remember to lock all the windows up before I leave. I would hate to leave one open and someone get in! :o

    Had a Chinese take away bought for me this evening. Beef and peppers and black bean sauce and fried rice, plus spare ribs and prawn crackers. Have loads left over as couldn't eat it all and I'm stuffed! :eek:

    Well I'd better check on the footy score, sounds like we've scored....My friend has just yelled from the next room! :rotfl:

    Awww sweet. Foxes are lovely looking creatures. Nice on the takeaway front.

    Dizzyblnd not sure what I am deciding on:) It wasn't me with teaching decision lol. Worms eek, had a few nit letters with gs but phew none of the critters made An appearance.

    Had a lazy weekend as lost few nights beauty sleep with knee pain.

    Yesterday nothing really productive. Had a night out, so grand total spent of £15. Nice meal out and gig after which was fun, limited dancing this time.

    Goodnight sleep last night so gutted my dining room, except for table/ chairs even when not hobbling not attempting to lift any of them extremely heavy.

    Then moved onto garage, as wanted to store some furniture/toys in there. Horrid job out the way, so dirty dusty but left one corner, biggest spider ever. Shower after felt so dirty yuck spider webs everywhere.

    Today a Sfd, small walk as only allowed gentle exercise, with dodgy knee, not sure running upstairs with all stuff I had cleared counts.

    Tomorrow need to post passport off and get bunny stuff. Physiotherapy appt so hopefully be fitter for end week when I head south on my hols.

    Foxes sound so cute,but keep them there. Bob I would worry about baby Bob coming in the house. Seen the mess they made trying to get out of my old neighbours garden and noise.

    Hi everyone!

    Sorry I haven't posted for a few days. Attended a fair yesterday so have been busy prepping items for that. Didn't make a huge amount there, but it all helps, plus it's a bit of advertising for my business. Also picked up some bargain books for the little ones from the fair. One of them should have been £25 new, looks like it's never been read, cost 20p!!!

    Up to 6 NSDs now. Today was a spend day as did weekly shop, but also made another £20 supplying a few items for a party.

    Evening all,

    Very spendy day but all items I had been waiting to buy with examining money - new work shoes, bridesmaid shoes, mattress protector and 2 new mugs.

    Started my new healthy eating today and have to say the plan I'm following seems great. I haven't been hungry all day and only had one time when I was exhausted and felt like I needed sugar. I get to eat huge portions of protein and veg so will see if that translates to weight loss too. I've had about 8 different types of fruit and veg, including fennel (never tried before) and celery and courgette which I usually hate.

    Off to bed, night all

    Morning All

    We do seem to have a problem with the fox now Mothernerd having assumed it only came in because the door was open it appeared again last night during tea when the back door was locked. Which meant it had come through the cat flaps. Sure enough it appeared again this morning via the same route.

    We seem now faced with the choice of blocking the catflaps entirely which means the cat will be stuck outside for hours each day. Or have this animal in the house. As Mothernerd says I am very worried about it attacking the baby.

    Would the council do anything? The problem is we cannot 100% seal the garden. We back onto a lane and that is where they originate. They come in over the fences by jumping on low garage roofs. Fun issue!

    In better news we have now sold 4 items on ebay this week. Managed to sell one of my husbands graphic novels for £13 last night although I didnt see until the morning becauae I fell aslesp doing the bedtime feed at 8pm and husband found me like that tea gone cold. Must have needed it.

    Right have a good day all.

    Bob

    Bob is your cat chipped? I bought a microchip cat flap so only my cat can get in the house as there are lots of cats around here. It was expensive around £70 but worth it as never had another visitor!

    Morning Turtles,

    It was my GF’s brothers wedding on Saturday so both Saturday and Sunday failed to be NSD’s.

    Back on the waggon this week though. Look to get a good few in a row.

    Fmess - the diet sounds up my street. Whats the name of the diet?
