    Flopping is very good, but sorry to hear you're a bit crook :(

    I don't have a tv licence any more, so I didn't watch the debate, but it sounds like the Scottish lady didn't take any nonsense from Cameron :) What a great self description, Pippi, all those women absolutely represent you :j:D

    Well that is indeed cheery :j and reminds me that I should get out of my pjs and plant those pesky plants in the garden! :eek: *nearly* did it yesterday, dug the ground over ready, but then we got hungry and it started going dark and I decided it could wait til today...

    ... no excuses now though!

    Have a good one - happy easter! :)

    Morning Pips!


    If I'm not mistaken you are on the second day of your weekend! Hope all is well with you & that you've been out in the glorious sunshine!


    I was working in the big smoke yesterday & soooooo badly wanted to sit outside at a cafe for lunch - unfortunately none with a table to be found, so inside it was - bah!


    By the end of the day - when it was home time, I was blissfully happy to have dressed lightly & was down to shirtsleeves for the commute back home - sun was glorious - made me smile & hum all the way home! (I did have my earphones in - so as not to appear crazy, but the music was entirely in my own head - thank goodness I mistakenly got on the non-express train which was almost empty for the whole journey.)


    So today is a work from home day - been up since 6am, but my tada-list has only been home stuff so far...
    • dishwasher unloaded and then loaded back up again
    • kitchen tided & smelling like natural citrus cleaner
    • recycling bin now filled to the top with assorted bits
    • laundry sorted and a load in
    • OH sent on his way to the office for the day
    • paperwork sorted & junk bits recycled
    • not in pjs - that is an accomplishment in and of itself
    • coffee made & kettle is on for anyone who wants one
    Logging on to work e-mail now to sort out the paying work...
    ...and happily reliving my childhood listening to Elmo (small red furry thing from across the pond) being interviewed on the radio!
