    Ionafan- yes definately! I am 5 minutes from the A1!!

    Having a mini crisis at home. So the kids and I are hoping to go away for the weekend (just trying to arrange) to give OH and I some space. 3 huge arguments in a week- all about the same topic. (Me going out too much and not doing enough housework).

    So I was going to do housework this morning but I really can't be ars*d!!
    Catch up soon x

    Hugs frizzle maybe you should let him have the children, might be a bit of an eye opener for him?

    I've found it impossible to stay on top of things with the kiddies at home, and I only have 2, and not babies. I've been putting off all kinds of jobs until they go back to school. Sounds like he's being a bit unrealistic xxx

    I have, however, finally cleaned the downstairs loo. I gave it a good top-to-bottom (pardon the pun!) with de-webbing, window washing, all the paintwork etc right down to mopping the floor. It needed it! :eek:

    Shopping has been put away, with a box found and some party drinks and crisps etc put in it for Sunday. No room in freezer for bag of casserole veg so guess what's for lunch today :) told you I liked Autumn!

    Lego is all away and we've taken some toys out of DS room that he's happy to let go of. So I think his Lego should live in his room.

    Legs feel a bit wobbly so I'm having a sit down. Phew!

  • Thanks. That means a lot. Little miss has to come with me as I am still feeding and I thought about leaving the boys but my best friend has said he might feel like I'm trying to score points. Still waiting to hear from my cousin. I wish she would hurry up and let me know one way or the other as I feel a bit in limbo and quite anxious.

    Bossy- well done on cleaning the loo!! X

    (((Hugs))) Frizzle.

    Wobbly legs, Bossy? Sounds like a very serious affliction for which administering chocolate and plenty of rest is the only cure.

    Replacement sundeck and steps scrubbed of builder's bootmarks, kitchen cleared and tidied, another jar of strawberry and blueberry jam made (fabulous mix), dog walked, sitting room tidied and I'm looking out of the window as I'm typing watching a pigeon standing next to the pigeon spacer carefully pecking niger seeds out of the goldfinch' feeder. Hmm.

    Off to do a bat and moth guided walk in a graveyard this evening. Oh the glamour of a Friday night in Plymouth.
    Better is good enough.

    OMG what a lil' darling! I lurve him!

    I also lurve my gtech @ir-r@m - I have vacced the whole house in about 10min thanks to no cables and it's more powerful than my corded vax!

    HB I don't have any chocolate in :( but I have had extra tea breaks :)

    Cake decorating has begun. And living room decorating lady has just been. I need emulsion and gloss, plus some satinwood or eggshell. Better double check my colour choice!

    Need to make a start on dinner, too. Chicken and bacon pasta for the small people. Still loads of casserole so I might do some veg sausage for me...
