Mudbath
You have made me feel so much better!! Had a v busy day at work and then the gingerkids have been a tad fractious since we all got back from school. To make things worse, DH is away overnight for work (up in the frozen north east!). Still - having caught up with the thread, my children are little angels compared to Mudbath's child from hell!!
OK - plans for tonight are: bath time for kids x3, cook something for me for supper, clean bathroom and office and then settle down to watch Hotel Babylon whilst doing the ironing! When ironing finished - read school reports for Reception classes looking for typos and/or children changing gender mid way through where teachers have used cut and paste from other children's reports! (Last year DS apparently played well with all her friends!!!).
Wish me luck! (and if you see me later with a glass of wine in my hand TELL ME OFF!)

Right, that's my half hour done. What have I done. Actually, it's amazing what you can do in half an hour when you set your mind to it. I now need to go and sort out the kitchen - it seems there's not a surface left. Then peel the spuds to cook for mashing to go with the yummy smelling chicken casserole that's been in the slow cooker all day. But, before I do that, let me see what I need to do flying wise tomorrow on my next post
