Morning everyone...happy valentines day

Anyone get any nice suprises?
I have one on the way apparently

You are all off to a great start! I have been to buy a nice bottle of wine for this evening, and made a lemon drizzle cake.

The kids have been busy making daddy valentines cards...my house is plastered in glue and glitter and things! They are going to get cleaned up and then we are going to make some heart shaped biscuits, I've promised they can ice them themselves (eeeekk)

I'll then get on and do some housework!! I did the mission yesterday luckily.

See you all in a bit xx

tortoiseLikesItNiceAndSlow · 14/02/2007 12:58

Afternoon all.
