On the other hand though - not a single other job done and now need to collect ds and take him with me to work for a bit

ok sbdh I'll make a list and work through it
good news about your DW, couldn't live without mine

I have to go out, but will be back to check on you later Littlemissbossy (I hope you're not as bossy as your name suggests! ) I can't tell you how relieved I am about the dw (although, secretly, I quite enjoyed washing up this morning..standing at the sink, looking out at the garden..all rather nice tbh...would not want to do it on a regular basis though!!)
Bye for now x

nearly finished the cake! Done the tricky bits anyway. Making the horses heads stick to the cake without falling off! Not bad effort actually. Just got the easy bit of cutting flowers for the 'paddock', so I can rest a while. Ludaloo ~ howz the tumbledrier. Think I'm just as sad to ask!

I'm off out now too, haven't done anything this morning, eek, but am walking around in sleep-deprived haze so at least have an excuse of sorts. Well done everyone for keeping busy. Princess that cake sounds great, lol when you said about about the horse's heads - made me think of the Godfather

Hi everyone

It came and its very good

Does anyone want to be nosey??

This is my house!

I spotted it on the BBC Wales homepage!!! We are famous!!!
They are looking at our village!

Well the Eisteffod went on for 4 1/2 hours!!! I had to leave after about 3, the kids were bored witless, Dd1 did very well and came 2nd twice for her recitals and a song about shopping. She was very good

Well I am truly knackered, and have bought chippy chips, so I shall go and eat

See you all in a bit xx

ludaloo ~ I am relatively new on mn so I didn't know you were Welsh! Happy St Davids Day! Do you do anything special or is it a big non event like St Georges Day. (Obviously your chips came with leeks and a daff! )

Nice house Luda.

Hi princesscc I'm not welsh... we moved here about 4 years ago from the midlands. It is a big day here, I'm exhausted now!
I still wave a little England flag on St George's day (well actually England flags don't go down too well, especially when the world cup is on)

I do love Wales though, I always have, I have welsh relatives, my maiden name is very welsh (Parry)
