I'm glad your ipad was replaced with no problems. The no charging fault seems to be a regular problem with apple things.6

Today I have done a bit more money shuffling and have paid off the car! 😃👏✨ DH's savings are back in place now. I feel very happy about that! I've tidied up my finance spreadsheet and have organised things a bit better so it's clearer.
I've had a tidy round, hoovered through and taken little jwil to swimming. We also did some science experiments this morning. DH has been out weeding the garden, we have a massive pile to go now

Jwil, I look forward to you coming over! I'll just get the kettle on...once the cake's out of the oven xxjwil said:
Not at all Humdinger, it's lovely to have people post, and thank you for your lovely comments. Enid Blyton fans are always welcome, and seriously, I am coming round to playHumdinger1 said:
Cranky, not only do I admit to reading Enid Blyton- but my daughter and I read them out loud, acting them out and camping them up between fits of hysteria! Hope you don't mind me bounding into your diary jwil; I always read, enjoy and admire you. Love Humdinger xCRANKY40 said:When I was young I only knew one other person that read chalet school books but I've found quite a few more readers now that I'm in my fifties. If I found one that I haven't read I'd still buy it. I have to admit to a fondness for old style books - Angela Brazil, The Abbey Girls and I do recall the Bobbsey twins too. Malory Towers and St Clares anyone?
Well done to Little Miss. I've been trying to talk myself into doing a parkrun for the last 3 years! Sorry you're not feeling too good.
Haha, I agreeHumdinger1 said:School stories, that is. Love Malory Towers and St Clare's. Though I have to ask, what school would stay open once the goings-on came out? Girls shimmying up sheets tied to drain pipes to rescue others from burning buildings where the fire brigade is waiting for tall ladders to arrive; clinging onto cliffs while the sea rages below; nearly drowning several times; and wasn't there also a kidnap plot? Ah well, good clean open air fun to take our minds off everything else!
And the Naughtiest Girl in the School where the kids make the rules and the head teachers pretty much do nothing!3 -
@jwil and @Humdinger1 shouldn’t that be with lashings of lemonade? Also preferably with a suspicious set of smugglers that you can capture before supper 😁 (can I come?)Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien
