At least you finished baking before 00.38! That's when I finished baking my cupcakes for school at the beginning of the month! 😴😴😴😴😴😴😴

They look lovely!

Morning! I'm heading into work early today. I hope we have systems running as I'm now epically behind after yesterday's IT issues. Sigh!

Gonna be gorgeous today, I think. Hope it holds out until tomorrow!

I don't think I made as many as you, Buttocks. It's a token effort after my manager badgered me into it!

Morning! I made 24. I didn't start until sometime after 11pm though, I couldn't be arsed with DH looking at the clock and going "why are you cooking at this time?", so I waited for him to crash out on the sofa.

I'm having super scrambled egg, a banana and a large caramel latte today. 😋🍌☕

I'm asleep by 11 so no chance of that!

So nice out here today. If breezy!

Evening all! Seems cooking is the name of the game today lol , just done a B & B pudding , a Victoria sandwich and 2 lemon drizzle cakes for Saturday celebrations yay! Went to a car boot this morning as the weather was nice and then home to cook , we are having spaghetti bolognese with garlic tagliatelle and cheese , I have cooked a chilli for tomorrow as well. I have only just sat down . We are going to have Steak chips peas onion rings and mushrooms for tea on Saturday DH is cooking it , YAY. Perfect l am getting like you .
I watched the Windsors wedding special while waiting for the cakes to finish , it was very clever and funny. I love the way they make their posh accents sound
Your cupcakes look delicious Fluffy well done!
Well done Perfect my DH would be like that
My sis done the parents today , Dad is much the same but at least he is no worse.
Hope all well , l am looking forward to the Royal Wedding on Sat it's been a slow burner but l am on the page now . l do love Harry & Wills .

Am off up the Parents today, going to do some cleaning and tidying and just making sure they are ok. Then up to the forest for a stress busting walk. The weather is looking beautiful here , Fluffy have a great first Friday off , I bet you can't believe yourself YAY!!!
Have a great day everyone take care

Morning!

It's Friday! And my day off! (It feels weird, I have to say.) 😂

Beautiful day today. I think we are off to Martin Mere again as well, just me and DS. ❤️❤️

How odd I wrote a post last night and it posted it yet it’s not here!!! Where did I post it then 😮😮..
O well I’m off to get my hair done at 9. Did carboot yest which was pretty quiet but weather was ok. Made hunters chicken for tea which was amazing, just had mine with salad but DH and ds had fries aswell. Got to get ds ghee ironed this aft as he is at a seminar all weekend and word is Olympic scouts will be there! Hope your fridays are productive / relaxing depending on your itinerary for the day 🙂

Woo hoo fluffy! My day off too and I'm meeting an old colleague for lunch plus food shopping and seeing a lady about a job. Busy busy.

I've just marinated the chicken which we bought from our local butcher on the way back from school as I'm doing curry for me and DH tonight.

Not sure we are going to Martin Mere. DS can't seem to make his mind up. Though he does want to go to Asda!

Check your posting history, Internal, see if you told someone else your news! 😂😂

Morning! I had eggs and bacon, a banana and a large caramel latte today. 😋🍳🍌

Is he after toys Fluffy? You get bigger toys for the same money at Asda. One Christmas I got DS2 a huuuuuge monster truck for £20. DD had to carry it home as it was so bulky and I had the food shopping! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

No, not toys. Bread rolls for tomorrow's BBQ! 😂😂

I've just had a turkey club sandwich, a bag of crisps and a Vit-Hit. 😋🍗

I have just eaten apple strudel and it didn't hit the sides yummy!
Been to Mum & Dad , gave them both a shower and shopped, tidied, cleaned , cooked and came home . Been to see the NDN in hospital , he is going for rehab to another hospital so he will be able to come back home with carers. no stress busting walk for me lol, just a naice cuppa tea and apple strudel . You know l would much rather 'do' than sit and watch them deteriorating, it is the hardest thing of all . I bought mum some flowers 'off Dad' bless her I can't bear to see him so poorly let alone mum having to sit there and watch him all the time, it's heartbreaking.
Hope all have a lovely evening l am looking forward to the Wedding tomoz!

Picked the DC up, bought them slices of chocolate cake from the year 1 cake sale, had chicken salad sandwiches for supper, DS2 will go to bed at 8. 😋🍰🍗

I’ve just had a Gu pudding. That also didn’t last long! 😋

The kids are asleep and we are watching Gardeners’ World. We’ve spent ages in the garden today; it’s been gorgeous. Hotter tomorrow though.

DD wants to watch the wedding after getting wedding fever at school! Bless her. I’m giving blood tomorrow, but DH can facilitate viewing!

Fluffy they had reduced Gu puds in WR and I could not buy them . I knew l would have eaten the 4 of them , they are delicious. Chelsea flower show next week YAY!
You are so good giving blood well done m'dear . I am excluded because I had a blood trans after DD2 birth in the 90's when the CJD was rife, I used to worry about getting that a lot I don't think about it now except at times like this.
Am chilling with a naice cuppa , l am secretly thrilled Prince Charles is escorting Meghan down the aisle but l really don't know why .
Have a lovely evening everyone

I can't give blood as I'm diabetic so signed dh up to do it next month I think everyone who can do it should.

Mmm I love Gu puddings!
