Evening all
I'm not staying for long because i havn't done anything for a while so havn't had anything to say. God knows how many pages i have to catch up on in this thread :eek:
I'll pop back tomorrow with my weekend chores
Night all :beer:0 -
I did a bit this morning before work, but more importantly, I bought stardrops!!!! However, as I went to the panto straight from work, the bottle is still in my office. Couldnt wait until tomorrow to try it out. There are sticky marks on my whiteboard where someone sellotaped something and its been bugging the life out of me. I used some neat stardrops and its almost away. I'll have another go tomorrow.
Thanks for all your suggestions about the mattress. I'll give it a go on Saturday when DD stays at my mums. And I'll catch up on things I havent done as DD does her own bedroom.
Night night xx0 -
