    Morning :) whoops woke up later than I was hoping as want to go to the lottie before oh goes to work. Just slurping a coffee before schlepping off there - feeling blurry eyed!

    So excited! Oh has finally drilled holes through the gas piping I'm making an arch for my squashes :j so I'm hoping an hour will be enough time to erect it :D

    Madam has ballet today so while in town will return a jug and stack of kids beakers to TK Maxx (£10) as found the exact same product in A5da for £4 ;)

    Will pick up boxes and piping/materials for sand pit while there also

    All meals from stores

    Will take madam to the park after ballet

    Make humus with some of chickpeas cooked yesterday. Freeze the rest in 200gm portions ;)

    Do upstairs cleaning - did d/s and bathroom yesterday. House looking spick & span :D

    continue listening to audio book Corrag. I find audio difficult as a medium!

    That's all I can think of right now. Hope you all have a great day! x

    Me and smalls all had a shower, warm enough to let all our hair dry naturally

    Last night I ordered some products from Severn Trent water they are buried deep in the website under 'save water' but are free :T I got a fat trapper, timer to use in the shower, leak detection tablets and a cistern thing. If it's any use to anyone.

    Hopefully it will be a bit cooler for people today, enjoy. Purps.

    Good Morning All

    Have woke up in a real grump today, mainly because I'm tired and partly because rec'd a text last night to say footie training tonight instead of Wed, no explanation or anything and then another text to say person who's been helping with DS can't pick him up (so that means £20 taxi fares or 2/2.5 hrs bus journies), that is one thing about this team that really annoys me - the lack of communication or last minute communication. Very overcast here but still hot. Today's little list:

    Packed lunch for DS - Done
    Check Bank & make PAD - Done
    RM Surveys - Done
    DH to Dr's (needs some codeine he's struggling on just paracetamol) -
    DS to training? -
    Clean decking (thanks pinterest for DIY option) -
    Declutter a couple of drawers in bedroom -
    Continue purge on emails -
    Enter a few comps -
    All meals from cupboards/fridge/freezer -
    Check: Luckyphone, Ashleigh, Numberplatelotto, FPL -

    Apologies for being a moaner and bringing the thread down. Have a great day all!

    It's the 'day of rage' thing.

    We don't hear anything about these things outside London. Almost as if the press, broadcasters etc hush it up!

    Ziggy, what a pain, parents have to go to such effort and expense nowadays for out of school activities - my children are grown up now, but back in the day there only seemed to be local activities.

    Really hot here again today, and supposed to be even hotter tomorrow when I have little GD, who struggles with the heat :( I have set OH to blowing up the paddling pool in preparation!

    Other things:
    Showered, sat outside to let hair dry naturally
    Load of washing in, dry outside once done All dried and folded :)
    Dog walk - done, before it got too hot!
    Picked strawberries for breakfast, before the blackbirds did :)
    Sow some seeds Black Tuscan kale and chard :)
    Get rid of some pots of salads etc gone to seed Done - in compost
    Blanch and freeze mangetout Done
    Food from home, still bits from Sunday to use up Done
    No spending plans :DNothing spent :)
    Watered pots in back garden, plus the young fruit trees at the back of the raised bed

    Sooo hot, and supposed to be even hotter tomorrow. Struggling a bit, especially given recent / ongoing health stuff :( Wish it would cool down a bit! Cool shower and early night I think!

    Hope everyone has a good day :)

    I didn't know anything about it until yesterday but you know how these things can get hijacked and turn violent and people are understandably very angry.
