    Thanks for the thought - being a keen gardener I am always getting scratches etc so it is nothing new! I haven't had a jab for about 15 years - I know you only need so many in your lifetime so there is a good chance I have hit that number being an old bird.

    Hi Dustykitten

    At present total of 5 tetanus jabs ,which includes 3 for initial course.
    Have you tried Magnesium Sulphate paste on a piece of elasoplast for your thorn?

    Hope all well

    Polly I am both jealous and not envious of your daughter! I loved being a Florist and I miss it, but Valentines and Christmas were the most painful! Valentines with thorns that usually ended up right under your nail owch and Christmas making holly wreaths, my hands got covered in so many scratches I used to plunge them into ice cold water to make them numb before I had a shower. She will need plenty of hot food, it's cold work.


    They don't make their own holly wreaths at Christmas time - they buy them in from the gypsies and then decorate them!

    Michelle that had better be the weeks list and you better not be going to try to do it ALL yourself!! .. or else you'll be in BIG trouble .. behave yourself woman!!! you have been warned!

    that is this weeks list and i was looking at what i had managed. I don't think i would have enough stamina to do much more than cook dinner and run a hoover around the living room today. I'm enjoying not having to lesson plan on a sunday far too much for that.

    clean the porch for me please. ours is 0.5x1m, and is quite grim. I only flick the hoover around in there, and it has in it my buggy, a shoe cupboard, toys from my car when DH took them out. Basically it needs the uPVC door and window frames cleaning, and the windows. The window cleaners mostly do the outside when they do the rest of the house, but i have been meaning to do the rest of it since before charlie was born :eek: - bad flylady confession from me. ;)

    I think that is a brilliant idea. Mine gets full of spiders' webs and as its not usually on the list I tend to forget it. It would be a good one to give to the kids to do when I am away.

    Poohbear.. that should be incorporated into your 'me time' which is the whole point of the thread.. managing your time so you have more time to do things like that for yourself. I know some have been doing a 5GC (5 minute challenge in the garden) which means you are out there doing your thing.. There is also a 'do something for yourself even if only half an hour' There is also a new one for Friday.. and I'm not giving you any more clues! ;).. but it is nice!!!

    hi guys :wave:

    Welcome Samphire :hello:

    Pink (((((((hugs and a beer)))))) x

    Rach! been having a nose at your pics on Facebook and you look gorgeous! Glad the day went well, love the Marge & Homer on top of your cake too - LOL x

    Been for a mooch round the shops (again) for a photo frame and some odds and sods, got the tea to do shortly and a hoover through which I haven't done today yet. Littley was poorly yesterday but she's out playing so she's better I think lol. Washing is all done just one more lot to fold, then up the stairs they go to be put away.

    All this talk of men in uniforms is making me errrrrrr wriggle, stop it!
