Olivebranch Does your grill work or are you down to the hob only?

rollonsummerholidays · 10/05/2007 14:32

EHM · 10/05/2007 14:34

rollon You sound like you have a lovely family. We going to Minorca for a week to a 'family Resort'. Although I know we are very lucky to be going on holiday. A bit of me is scared, we won't be letting Ellie out of our sight for a second. My mum said to me on Sunday that she knows I won't sleep until we get back(even though Ellie will be in the same room)
tort you will be fine you've been on a helicopter. The dc's will love the plane too. But I can totally understand why you would feel scared.

Simply the grill is fine what can you suggest?? Rollo had Spag yesterday which is why I feel a bit stuck today - thanks for the suggestion though Whatever I cook will be for me too so please don't suggest fish fingers!!

EHM · 10/05/2007 15:05

oliveBranch how about bangers & mash? ITs pretty wet & wild here today so I am thinking about doing something wintery.

SleeplessInTheStaceym11House · 10/05/2007 15:53

tortoise · 10/05/2007 16:31

yes helicopter was great! I went to the scilly isles for 3 weeks with my 1st nannying job. It was amazing but i think a lot different to flying a lot higher and faster in a plane!

Phew - set off at noon with ds to run all our errands and (other than calling in to collect dd from school) didn't get home till almost 6.30! Everyone very tired now.

Better go and get supper on the go for dh and I.
Have a good evening all

tortoise · 10/05/2007 20:33

Evening all.
DC all in bed.
No lunch boxes done yet but it doesn't take long so will do it in a min.
Not much else done today (as usual!). I must be the worst FLYer on here!

Londonmamma · 10/05/2007 20:36

Hello Jelley, Olive, Sleepless, Rollon. Simply, Luda Aufish and EHM.

EHM - hope you have a fab holiday, Aufish -fostering's a really worthwhile thing to do. Luda - sorry you're still dealing with sick DC, Sleepless - hope you get the bill sorted out

I seem to have lost my recent bout of household self-discipline and things feel like they're going to pot again. Have hardly managed to get anything done today and with DH out am at risk of spending all evening on MN.

So - Londonmamma's late night fly list!
1)tidy basement, empty DW
2)Sort mags to send to friend
3)School email
4)packed lunches
5)clear hallway
6)put recycling out
7)check urgent post

Londonmamma · 10/05/2007 20:37

Sorry Tort - forgot you on my list. Hope you're feeling OK

Jelley · 10/05/2007 20:38

Evening

I've not done much today, either
I didn't even get round to hoovering

My parents came, which is always nice, so the rest will wait til tomorrow now.

Childrens passports - you don't have to change the picture...dd2 was under two in hers, and they happily accept it is the same child now that she is 6. ds was 9 months for his, and it will last til he's 5
