Morning all, Relaxing start to the day as I could wake up naturally and not have my alarm wake me at 5am. Sitting writing my list with a cuppa that DH made me whilst he runs around the house hoovering behind DD who is dusting.
My list for today
Feed the animals
Sweep and mop the kitchen floor.
Sort out Mr T delivery
Submit shopping information to scanning company
Sort the catch on the garden gate
Answer work related messages and emails.
Get dressed
Laundry x 3 loads
Sort through the ironing pile and put away non-iron clothing (all laundry has been thrown on the pile whilst I've been busy lambing the last couple of weeks)
Check the plants and dispose of any dead plants, water any surviving plants
Check and sort diary for next week
Do some uni work
Go to collect our new puppy
Sort out the pups microchip
Think that is everything that I need to get completed today, it's going to be a busy day so I best get started. Hope everyone has a lovely relaxing Sunday.

Arrived safely in York. Blue sky and sunshine here after a night of heavy rain at home 😃.Enjoying a coffee in the old signal box at the station and recalling happy memories of Cycling Yorkie- this is where we met up for the last time.
Enjoy the lambing, MMM. That’s something I’ve always wanted to help with. Maybe I should have been a midwife!

I am doing a charity bike ride in June and need to do some training but it's too windy to go out so I will do a session on the spinning bike, which is not my favourite activity.
Valli I'd be up for a London meet.
A fairly lazy day after battling with the wind to walk to church and back, gave 2 more pairs of fingerless gloves to the waterways chaplain; apparently they have been a real hit with the boaters so I'll keep knitting as they are so easy. I hate wind. However it has been lovely and sunny. Mr N has done a fair bit in the garden but I've skulked indoors - rang Mum, got fish out of the freezer to cook, spent some time watching the swimming championships as the daughter of my friend from church is hoping for her second trip to the paralympics (silver last time). When I saw her last week, she said her main event was today but the timetable isn't easy to follow and they do their heats in mixed categories of disability.
Organised the lift I'm giving to a zumba lady tomorrow as it is back again after a few weeks off.
Done a bit more of a report.Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.6 -

Took some pests to see some trains.
Thank you Iona for the lovely feast.. the hot chocolate was a BAD idea but very delicious. I hope everyone got home safely.
And no the DW hasnt been loaded!!!!

Gutted I wasn't there with you all.
I am really nervous about returning to work tomorrow, although I know it will be fine. Random freezer bits flung in the oven for tea then early ish nights for all xx5 -
We are going back because mine loved it so we can arrange a date you can make, if you want? The car park is a building site at the moment though. We are looking at taking them to the museum of science and industry (Manchester) over summer and The Armouries (Leeds) at some point if you can get there? Or we are going to the east coast many times over the summer.. Bridlington/Scarborough/Whitby/Filey (My favourite) if those are easier for you?Asparklierblonde said:Gutted I wasn't there with you all.
Cuppa slurped.. off to feed the monsters and do pack ups for tomorrow and OH can scrub small.

Evening all. Thanks to Iona, Valli and Piggers and her family for a great fly meet today.
I have just put DGD2 to bed so I'm going to settle down with a cuppa and lemon drizzle cake - thanks again Iona.
Flying? I put the hoover round before going out today.
See you all on the new thread.Spend less now, work less later.6 -
