    I've joined the GC this month as this is the enxt area thet I need to take control of, especially with the price of everything rising so rapidly and unemployment looming if I cant find another job soon.:o :eek:

    Kids are in the kitchen doing sand art and glitter art so while they're in there I'm going to give the LR a quick going over.

    Bleurgh, i've given in and taken some cold and flu capsules. Have just run round the house with the hoover, fed the birds, let the rabbit out-she is pretending she is the andrex puppy with my toilet roll:confused: Just popped a batch of shortbread into the oven and changed my electricity supplier.
