    Good morning ladies and good to see you Piggers! And you too Yorkie....I've missed ya!

    :j for you Dancemum - well done. Wrap up warm though, as Valli says, losing weight means you feel the cold more.

    Jazee I think you've saved me...handwritten lists are OK, aren't they!? :rotfl: Pointed look in Lamewolf's direction...

    Great news for your DH and you FBO. Enjoy scuba diving in the cold, you nutters!

    Good Friday was spent mainly watching cartoons, as our day out was cancelled due to the rash situation. It isn't anywhere near as bad today, so might sneak in an outdoor activity later. I know it's traditional to eat fish but we had Lamb and onion pie with HM shortcrust pastry for dinner...yum, yum...no leftovers, sorry mutts!

    I did however, blitz the boys' room from top to toe! :T Go Dizzy, go Dizzy :j It no longer smells like an animal den in there :eek:

    New school uniform ordered. New school shoes labelled. Chicken house cleaned and scrubbed. New wood shavings down and egg boxes gleaming. Bathroom scrubbed, but there is already toothpaste splatter on the mirror :mad:

    Today has started as expected, with a bin-raid by !!!!!Lips. Chewed tinfoil all over the floor. I'll expect sparkly poo...

    Later lovelies x

    Morning all

    In bed with a cuppa listening to the birds (whilst ignoring the noise from downstairs :rotfl:) and it's SUNNY!

    Beach day planned today as tomorrow looks to be a wash out. We are here until Friday, and the forecast looks ok in the main :)

    Flying? Urrrrm none but that's what holidays are for, right?!

    Happy Easter xx
    MFW :)

    I meant Tuesday jazee :p

    Hi pigpen xx

    Still in bed (again) lol this is quite a habit now! No dancing or football this weekend but I have a plan to go to a nice park this afternoon and my mum invited us for Sunday lunch tomorrow.

    Ironing all put away last night but I've more washing to do (always lol) and downstairs floors need sweeping!

    Breakfast and coffee first tho!

    Morning all,
    Up early -really annoying as I don't have to be. So of course I have put the extra time to good use...not! Unless coffee and hot cross buns count - and they do, right??
    No flying achieved apart from the usual WM run. It's flipping freezing outside, so washing is hanging indoors. A bit of money stuff done, and now Wind0ws is updating itself yet again.
    Hi Pigpen :hello:
    Nothing else much has stuck, as I got distracted by the mention of Lotus 123 and Supercalc, both of which I used. I loved Lotus, and couldn't believe that Excel would ever catch on - so what did I know?? Now I'm on it all day at work, and even it would appear for "fun"....Meal plans included!
    Have lovely days x

    3 washloads on line
    Bottom deck of DW emptied
    Couple of admin jobs done
    Family coming round tomorrow. Except bil, it would appear he's declined yet another invitation. Not bothered; had enough. Buffet planned.
    DD has gone to meet a friend; DS at work.
    Lovely to see Piggers...

    Hi Pigpen, job getting vibes for your OH. Would love to see photos of the little one too. X

    Enjoy your holiday ATB. Hope the weather is good for you. X

    Ground floor vaccummed
    2x wm done
    Airing cupboard sorted. Ds2 had no long sleeved tops in his wardrobe so is wearing a Christmas one. :)
    Mr T delivery put away
    Ds2 taken for a pok emon walk. His hands were cold so we came back after an hour.

    DH took a broken lawnmower and strimmed to the tip.

    After lunch befrienders should arrive to play with DS2 and we are expected to go out.

    It is Ds1's gf birthday today. We are expecting him home on Monday until Friday.

    just brought the furries in and sat them on children's laps. They need some hooman time, to keep them tame. And I'll let them wander round the conservatory to stretch their legs, since they can't really go on the lawn.
    And it does the children good to interact with furbabies of whatever sort, imho. :o How's Boy Piggie? He was on meds, I seem to remember.
    I'll have to race to catch up LameWolf Colour coded pegs, and colour coded spreadsheets. What's next?
    :D It's Valli who has the colour-coded pegs; these days I usually get Mr LW to hang the washing out, as it's nigh on impossible with frozen shoulder; both of us just use whatever peg falls into our hands, though. ;)

    In my own defence, hand-writing anything hurts like hell because my paws are so arthritic, so it's actually a lot easier for me to type it onto a spreadsheet. :o Plus my frightful handwriting would make even the most tolerant inebriated spider shake it's head in sorrow. :D

    I had a rather ...er... "interesting" but of ad hoc Flying today - took Ronnie, who by the way is a long-haired JRT, out, and long story short, he came back with a bit of a grotty botty. Cue filling the bathroom basin with tepid water, getting an old flannel out, and washing the little chap's nether regions. Not my favourite task for a Saturday morning, but he was very good, I think he understood that he'd be clean and comfortable if he co-operated. :o

    Boy piggie is fine thanks LW he had his lump drained and it hasn't come back yet. Can still feel it a bit but it doesn't bother him. He's a lovely boy and I swear he smiles when I rub his chin :D

    Been out for a nice walk around a big pond (small lake) - bit windy but the mini railway was running and kiddies had an icecream. My dad came with us too. Was nice. We have the fire on now though, brrrr.

    Swept around earlier and did a bit of laundry. Will go make kids some tea I think...

    Back home after 3 lovely dives. My new suit is lovely. DH's birthday present to me (or him:D) and borrowed his heated vest. Apart from my hands I was toasty warm.

    This morning I did an early morning raid on the Ulverston butchers. It's almost a case of giving you the name of the animal that gave up its life for your plate. Gloucester Old Spot sausages just devoured:D. We have New Season Leg of Lamb for lunch on Monday:T

    The house is ok. I managed quite a lot of flying last week, and DH was working so much he didn't create much mess. I'll S&S tomorrow after church, before we go for lunch. I imagine I'll be too exhausted from the noise to do much when we get back.

    Monday DH has to return the hire car. I have a PT session and some paid work to do. I'll fly as well.

    Must remember I am racing next weekend so I need to be careful about eating and exercising this week. Not too much hoovering in case it hurts my back:rotfl:
