He's just text to say he's getting on a plane. It's only a short flight so he'll actually get here earlier than he would have done if he'd got the original flight. DS will be so pleased as i've prepared him that daddy might not be here first thing but he'll be here later in the day. Saying that, i'm never happy, it's blowing a gale here so I hope the plane takes off and is safe! I'm glued to teletext flight arrivals lol! Thanks for everyone's positive thoughts.

The Dyson Duo have cursed me!
Living room smells funkey why? Think the hoover is now broken... it works... but has a burning smell coming from it and a very strange noise...
My own fault, lazyarsitis makes me hoover lamenite....
If it's a Hoover what do you expect?
Now, if it was a Dyson, the Dyson Duo could probably help out :rotfl:
We may have one or two going cheep (oops - I think the missing budgie has been found) or even cheap....I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

It is REALLY bad :eek: I'll try and do pictures when I come in from work tomorrow, and in my defence its difficult as we dont have wardrobes as we're in the attic and cant get any to fit under the eaves or go up the stairs !Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!0
