'non-stop rock.. all rock radio'.. kind of does it for me.. whitesnake.... bon jovi..
.. fratellis
.. ocean colour scene..
... queen... hmm.. I flip over to kerrang when they get to playing too much rolling stones and beatles!! and sometimes if I am feeling a bit chavvy.. *gulp* galaxy

Afternoon all,
Just had a catch up over some lunch.
mudbath - liked the singing
g&b - loved the clip and yes carp does appear from nowhere
embb - don't over do it with all the cleaning you don't want to end up hurting/pulling something
dusty - very wise words for today will try to follow them
vanilla - very envious of your lit fire I would love one but modern houses and real fires don't go
pigpe - I have joined the ebay listers and listed 5 things on Sunday I have about another 50 bits lying around so can I suggest a ebay listing session over the next few weeks.
My catch up list seems huge but as I gutted the bedroom at the weekend I don't have much to do there.

Hi everyone,
about a Level 2 in the bedroom - not hard, as it still only contains a bed and a lot of bags of clothes. The one which is mine is beautifully folded, and I'm not touching OH's.
I've also done the weekly shop, bought a second pair of rugby shorts for DS2 who discovered this morning that the first pair is too small, and delivered them into school for his match this pm.
I'm just about to deliver DS1, and then off to my favourite garden centre because I need some plants (not want you note, but really need).I'm going to spend the rest of the afternoon in the garden. I had an hour yesterday, and I'm really sorry Dusty, but I don't like cats. (Or rather, what all the neighbours' cats leave in my garden.
All three finish school/revision class/rugby match at different times this evening - really irritating, three separate trips to school.
The supply agency rang, and are hoping to send me out next week - gulp. I'm already feeling wobbly.
Happy birthday to AnW's W - lost track in the posts, today or tomorrow?
I have to read all the posts as well, that's why I don't have much time for housework!
Good luck with the course lil_meIt is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0
