Thanks for the welcomes.
I've made and eaten a bean and potato curry for my tea and am off to tackle some ironing. It's cold here so ironing should heat me up! feel sad as OH has left for a 3 week work stint . Ah well, the house will be all flylady-ed by the time he comes back

Hi Flyladies - have been too busy today to post - will catch up with you later. Just wanted to let you know that the three maps I put on Ebay last Saturday have all sold. And guess what - three bits of paper that had been sitting in the loft for about 6 years just gained me £46 !!!!!!! (Less auction fees of course!). Just had to tell you all! I'm chuckling away to myself here. Will pop back for a proper update later

i am ready to collapse! back is aching badly and we're getting there

OH has gone for a Chinese and then we'll do some other tasks and ignore the packing for the rest of today!

Must be something in the water today then, hmm, weird when they are nice for no reason and you don't know what they want (yet!) Especially Saturdays I usually don't even expect sense from mine, he usually sleeps until 2pm after being at work then he just slobs the rest of the day until he goes to work, was VERY strange.

Solway ((have a squidgy hug)) at least I suppose it's done and you can move forward. Should have waved as you drove past me well done for being a good friend when you had so much of your own 'stuff' to deal with. We don't mind one little bit having you around more often!!!

Rach, you'll get there, probably not a good idea to do more tonight if you're hurting but you will get there with it. I never thought we'd finish when it came to packing/moving but we did.

Well the shopping is away, DPs work stuff done (helped tidy but still can't figure how to make a sandwich/bottle of juice :rolleyes:) some laundry on airers, more needs to go in so will do that next. Oh heck no I won't, need to feed the kids and dogs first because I've forgot (at least they had snacks since lunch!)

Lil_me, I did a 360' wave from the A1 just to cover all directions!

I've done nothing but play on the laptop since I posted last. I do now have msn though - something else to distract me! Half hour ironing challenge is in order I think.

That'll do just fine, my house is only about a mile from the A1, we don't hear the traffic etc but do hear sirens if there is an accident on there, I drove 'over it' twice today over the bridge about midday so might have even been the same time. Click on the ickle person under my avatar etc to get my msn addy.

Just been emailing Wilkinsons, trying to chase up the replacement order which was supposed to be here over a week ago. I have dropped some of the 'nice people' from where we used to live an email. Kids now eating dinner bad mother forgetting to feed them, then I'll try to get them to bed.

Need to decide what to do off my 'meals list' for dinner tomorrow, it's either roast chicken or toads in holes, think I'll let the kids decide...

I need to find some salad dressing recipes too, low fat ones, DP wants to eat salad (well try to) he's finally realised his diet is shocking, but says it's too boring so I need to make something nice to go on it. I bought some french dressing which I just tried, not very nice and the whole bottle needs using within 3 days of opening so most would be wasted.

Kaz the photos only just uploaded for me, huge well done, that room looks great.. I still can't believe your son is so tidy!!! As for your DD, well I was the same, I still am a messy tike by nature if I am honest, guess some people are naturally untidy (hence I am here as it takes an effort for me to do what others do 'naturally')

Oh I just spotted the baby picture, awww, he's lovely Solway
