    I wouldn't worry about the strike if you haven't had direct info from your own school, parents affected at ours have already had letters a couple of days ago. As I said it apparently only affects classes if the teacher is in the union and choosing to strike. So if you haven't already heard about it from your schools I think it's safe to assume you aren't affected.

    Pigpen those photos are lovely, you have gorgeous children.

    Busy day today as we had ofsted in, so I think deserve a glass tonight. I'll catch up on the lists tomorrow.

    Hope everyone is as well as can be.

    No fly zone.

    Kids to school
    Long dog walk
    Oooooooo tiny bit of ironing and WM
    Lunch
    Dentist
    Reading at school
    Swimming lessons
    Tea
    Put away shopping delivery
    Kids to bed

    And here I am

    House complete dump. Due to torrential rain all day the places where OH has been digging drainage in the garden are now muddy quagmires, the garden path is covered in clods of muddy earth, there is mud tramped all through the house and I am losing my mind with the state of everything, why did we ever buy this house, six years and it's worse than ever, not enough money or time to finish it, completely tired.

    Right, rant over.

    Piggers, the pics are lovely.

    Welcome back mmm x

    Iona you can't say there are only five things on your list when one of the things is clean the whole house!!!!

    Biscuit, you were right, there were more than 5 things, because i added WMx5 :eek: and the result is that I haven't yet cleaned the kitchen properly. But the rest of the house is done :D

    Pigpen, I love the photos Beautiful girlies, all of them xxxx (and your OH ain't bad either - if I was younger I might consider him quite dishy :rotfl:)

    Tomorrow's list:

    - Clean the kitchen worktops and wipe down the doors and drawer fronts
    - Deliver some letters that I'm about to write now before I go to bed
    - Transfer files to my flash drive
    - Pack
    - Leave the house at 11.00 pm
    - Come back (hopefully) at about 8.00 pm minus a bunion
    - Sleep

    I may pop in in the morning, otherwise I'll wave to you all from the sofa sometime over the weekend.
