Morning all,
Didn't manage to get on yesterday after the 70s party - lots of dancing and so much laughter. DD picked us up at midnight but I had to get up at 8.30am for coffee! Spent the day shopping for more paint(!), food shopping and then painting the lounge walls. Finished about 8.30pm - exhausted! More of the same today and then just a little wallpapering to do in the alcoves.
Sorry to hear about Brian's Mum @snoozer x
Safe travels @-taff x
Lovely hearing your news from Aus @Gers and that your teacher-mode came in handy!
We are out with DS1 and GF for dinner tonight - local curry house. Will be nice to catch up properly rather than during a DIY session (at their house) or when dropping off pup.
Have a good day all.

Thanks taff I remember her coming back on as Black something but couldn't remember the name either and now she seems to be MIA again. There are a lot of people reporting log in problems.

Take care, nan xxFailure is simply the opportunity to begin again, but this time more intelligently9 -
