    onamission - welcome! I'm struggling with the flying now that I am back at work, but it is well worth doing a bit every day, as it means that I don't have to spend all wekend doing housework!

    hex- I was wondering where you were - should have known that you were in the garden! You must have had better weather than we have, as it rained nearly every day in halfterm, I gardened yesterday in the rain, and it has chucked it down again today. At least I don't have to worry about watering...

    Hi AnW's mum,

    I was happy to hear that you all had such a great time caravanning. I told lil_me that we had a static caravan, at Winchelsea beach, near Rye, for years, and absolutely loved it! We have also taken the children to caravan holidays on the Isle of Wight, and if it had rained a little less we may have continued. The past few years we have booked gites in France, and had a great time!

    ps well, that didn't work - so I'll just have to do lots and lots of short posts! But before then, I'll go make dinner...

    Evening ladies, not much flying done today desipte not having the children here most of the day, dropped DD1 at school and DD2 at nursery then went food shopping, got back at 10.30 and spent from then until 2.30pm putting their new wardrobe together:eek: I still have the doors to do but I have huge blisters on my hands from it. Mind you I found it easier than I thought, we have the same ones in our room and I remember them taking so much longer with DH!

    Anyway just having 5 mins on here, then putting kids to bed and will do the lounge then.

    Evening happy flyers, it seems to be raining everywhere and I'm another that's had to put the heating on in June. I've had a very 'thinky day' at work which is more tiring than a physical day for me and I just wanted to get home this evening so I didn't go swimbling. Going to get a cuppa then I'm going to switch my head off and get blitzing in the livingroom.

    I'll be back later but before I forget, good luck for tomorrow Shell and well done GnB!
