We'll need a new Countdown thread before the end of April by the looks of things.
Can we aim to fill this one before the next Rudolph Day?

NoWordForFluffy · 21/04/2018 06:26

Sadly not, Woolly, or I'd definitely help you!

We are filling this one quite quickly, aren't we? @SideOrderofSprouts needs to be coming up with a new thread over the weekend I reckon!

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 21/04/2018 06:34

Morning! DS2's in our room for WiFi, I'm in bed drinking coffee. 😋Brew I am actually drinking out of that mug! 😂

Well the sun is still shining and I am off to work .. hope there is a little sun left for Tuesday when I’m off. DH had mowed the back lawn and tidied up all the leaves, dog hair etc that had accumulated on the patio over winter when I got home yesterday. DS passport has arrived which is great as he goes to Germany for a karate seminar on 4th of May. We only sent off for it last Monday so was panicking as cutting it very fine 😮😮 so major relief! ... Have a happy Saturday and il catch up with things properly on my days off.. just sort of skimming posts at moment so apologies if I have missed anything important x

Mrsmadevans · 21/04/2018 06:46

Morning all Smile
Another beautiful day Yay!!!
Am taking mum to see her friend for lunch (hmm) and DH is visiting DD1 in Manc, they are going to see Tim Peakes astronaut suit and the re-entry capsule he came down in.
Fluffy. l had to do this thread in a bit of a panic last time .I didn't feel as if l qualified to do it really because it wasn't my thread iyswim Xmas Grin Xmas Hmm l am silly sometimes haha. So perhaps we should just do one ready?

Mrs on the Respo threads we all take turns to start them. Is that an option? 😆

HairsprayBabe · 21/04/2018 07:48

Working from home!
That was always the long term plan but my manager waa happy for me to do it immediately!

NoWordForFluffy · 21/04/2018 08:12

That's a bonus, Hairspray! 😁

Let's give Sprouts a chance. It always was Sprouts last year, like Reastie does the bargain ones!

I've already cleaned the bathroom, hung the washing out and Dyson'd the kitchen. Not much left to now, thankfully!

It feels chilly out right now, but it's 8 degrees, so not really that cold, just feels it comparatively!

WreckTangled · 21/04/2018 08:30

I'm waiting for next door to finish tile cutting before I hang my washing out! So dusty! Going to make the most of the last sunny day though

SideOrderofSprouts · 21/04/2018 08:44

I’m here I’m here!!

NoWordForFluffy · 21/04/2018 08:51

Yeah. Downhill from here. Boo!

TheWoollybacksWife · 21/04/2018 09:29

Internal I'm intrigued by the idea of an international karate seminar. DS' organisation does training camps abroad for the black belts but DS is too young to go alone.

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 21/04/2018 10:12

All we are saying
Is give Sprouts a chance 🎵🎶🎵

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 21/04/2018 10:14

In the Sainsbury's café, the DC had kids' breakfasts, I had cheese on a bagel. 😋🍳

HandbagCrazy · 21/04/2018 10:55

It is another lovely day here. DH cancelled a camping trip with Dnephew because we were supposed to have rain and cold etc so he's a bit like a bear with sore head today, in a grump because the weather has turned out fine Hmm

I got up early and did all the chores I needed to so the rest of they Day is mine to waste enjoy 😇

NoWordForFluffy · 21/04/2018 12:22

I'm at a 5th birthday party with DD at a soft play place. It's private hire, so a bit better than a public one with hundreds in here!

We are BBQing later. Can't wait!

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 21/04/2018 16:11

Had prawn pasta salad for lunch. 😋🍤

SideOrderofSprouts · 21/04/2018 18:19

I shall make a new thread tomorrow with the countdown on it. Can’t believe we’re on a third thread and it’s only April!

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 21/04/2018 19:25

Had crispy crumb spaghetti with tuna for supper, DS2 will go to bed at 8, DD will go at 9.20. 😋🍝🐟😴

FridgeCut · 21/04/2018 19:32

Pasta sounds yummy! DH has taken Gabriel to A&E, he fell over on Thursday, took him to A&E yesterday and they said it was fine. Didn't seem fine to me, got DH to take him back and he has broken his wrist!

NoWordForFluffy · 21/04/2018 19:38

Oh no, poor boy, Fridge! I think it's actually quite common to not spot a broken wrist to be honest.

The kids were wiped out tonight. DS almost nodded off during his book (The Snowman and Snowdog for the 4th night running)!

I've eaten too much BBQ. I missed lunch due to the party so was bloody starving. Stuffed now!

WreckTangled · 21/04/2018 19:41

Fridge didn't you used to work in radiology? Hope it's a simple break that will heal quickly.

I'm tired, not sure I'll be able to stay awake much longer Grin

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 21/04/2018 19:42

I had a broken elbow for 3 days when I was 5 before it was spotted. I broke it a really uncool way as well, I tripped over, put my hands out to stop myself and it bent the wrong way. Blush

Flowers🍨🍧🍦🍩🍰🍪🍫🍬🍭 to Gabriel.

SideOrderofSprouts · 21/04/2018 20:28
