    Yes, just come back from a South East Asia cruise, got back yesterday but unfortunately came back with the flu, it literally knocked quite a few people off their feet the last few days, apart from that we really enjoyed it.

    So it's the weekend again, I would write a list but I've had a mega productive morning and I've done most of it already :D

    This morning I had to drop ds at the station to catch his train, then I popped into town, bought some stamps and posted a letter, treated myself to a new savings pot for my £2's, it was reduced to £8.99. I went to the bank and moved the coins that I paid into ds' account into mine and also paid in a cheque. Then I picked up a couple of reduced bits in M&S food hall and headed home.

    Once home I have cleaned the bathroom, tidied and cleaned both bedrooms, cleaned the hall / downstairs loo, done two loads of washing, mopped the kitchen and conservatory floors, tidied and cleaned the lounge and taken out the rubbish / recycling.

    I still need to: check the banking, hoover through, iron when the washing is dry, do my Super 6, reach my swagbucks goal and then spend the afternoon chilling watching the football and rugby ;):)

    At the minute I'm sat in the conservatory in the sunshine with the laptop and a coffee, watching the first load of washing I've put on the line this year, spring is headed this way, happy times :D

    We managed to recover a draw from 2-0 down yesterday in the football so at least we got a point there, today I need to finish off the bits and pieces I didn't get done yesterday, make a roast dinner and collect ds later from the station.

    I'm sat in the conservatory again this morning, its chilly but bright, and I've just seen a little bird having a nosey in the birdbox on the fence :T :T Spring is definitely on the way :D

    And we've got a snow day :j :j I know 99% of the country has proper deep snow, but for us to get any that settles here is stupidly rare - the Isle of Wight shelters us a bit and it just never settles, so this is the absolute best bit of my job, an unexpected day off, I feel like a little kid on Christmas morning ;):D
