Reporting for duty
Wow 4 pages already, will have to catch up when I get a chance.
DH is on nights so is fast asleep in the master bedroom, so can't fly in there till he gets up.

Morning all
Wind assisted journey to school but much tougher coming home with it blowing in my face!
DS3 put his wellies on in the garage and walked across the kitchen to the door so there is a trail of dried mud to hoover up first.
Need to pop into the loft to put a few bits away and look for a box.
Ebay stuff to package - all paid but they have not emailed me back to confirm the paypal addresses - I prefer them to do this but might post anyhow.
Be back in an hour.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
