    Is anyone up for another 30 minute challenge, as I expect that some of you are now back from the school runs, and will want to get a headstart on tomorrow's list? I'm going to be out on supply tomorrow so I know I won't get a chance then, and I'm meeting a friend for the day on Friday, so want to get on if I can.

  • I'm home.

    got a phone call from sister to ask me to take the cat round as she has a mouse in her bedroom. Several hours later, cat just fell asleep under her bed so it isn't caught. Oh well.

    I now have a very whingy boy as he is due his tea, after he chucked most of his lunch on the floor, and i am gasping for a cuppa as i wasn't even offered one while out.

    tia -sorry for scaring you. All our windows were smashed, and also they had to cut through the bricks to put in the new patio door so you can imagine the brick dust mess.

    Oooh you lucky thing! I've always wanted an AGA...and a scrubbed wooden table....and a BIG HUGE kitchen to put it all in :rolleyes:

    I love it dearly and can't imagine not having one - had it for about 7 years - one of the reasons we brought this house was because it was suitable for one - kitchen is solid floor, no bedrooms above and leading into the front and back gardens so has doors/windows for ventillation when it is hot. I have no other cooker, no toaster, electric kettle, microwave just the AGA. I dried all of DS3's nappies on it when he was a babe. It is just fab - sorry going ott but do not have a scrubbed table or a huge kitchen.
