tortoise · 09/08/2008 21:35

TMH It is awful isn't it? We are hoping to go to Crealy on Thurday. At least they have an indoor bit if it is bad.

lucysmam · 09/08/2008 22:02

rain for 5 more days

really mad are you sure it didn't say beautiful sunshiney weather all the time forever

tortoise I don't know in that case, unless they've been nicked by the key faries

glad you have had a good day mad.

We've just finished up in kitchen for now, it looks huge and fresh and new now instead of old n knackered

TheMadHouse · 10/08/2008 07:52

Morning all

I have been up forever, DS2 is so snotty and bunged up he is having trouble sleeping and can not even settle with mummy cuddles in our bed.

DS1 heard us and got up too, so I am knackered, as my throat is sore again

Although the forcast is for rain we have had gloreous sunshine since 5am, but as soon as we go out I can tell it will pee down.

FLy wise

Done

Hi TMH sounds like a heavy night for you.
I hope your DCs pick up today, poor old things.
Morning all
My LO woke me up at 7:15 by sitting on me whilst trying to take off his damp jammies. Had a small accident. Trying not to drink coffee, so this is day two of feeling a bit lethargic.
Do have a nice cup of green tea though. [bleuch face] It's OK with honey.

Can't see me doing a lot of flying today, think I might have a few hours of chilling. It's sunny here as well, but suspicious of sunny mornings, they don't tend to last.

ds has killed lkeyboard

rowingboat · 10/08/2008 11:06

hlo Jac ho r yo?
Has he popped the keys off? Mine does that. Grr! Or is it deid?

Simply · 10/08/2008 11:07

Hello to all.

Well, I did type up a packing and self catering list last night which is on the pc so I don't have to do it again! I've also done lots of ironing so hopefully packing will be quite easy!

Sorry to hear about your keyboard Jas. Is there any hope for it, do you reckon?

Jas · 10/08/2008 11:12

he Has popped the keys off
no hope

Simply · 10/08/2008 11:19

Oh dear. How expensive are keyboards, can you get another one fairly easily? We donate things to our local computer and furniture recycling centre and they sell them on at a fair price. Have you got something like that near you?

TheMadHouse · 10/08/2008 11:53

Morning again.

It started raining as soon as we got out, so have decided to come back for lunch and then have a lazy afternoon

TD is on
Washer is on
DH is shelling peas and cleaning spuds from the garden for dinner
Lunch is homemade burgers is buns

I need to do a camping list.

I think we are nearly there, just need something to keep the sharp knives in

rowingboat · 10/08/2008 15:16

Simply how is the grass cutting going. Is it all in stripes now? Does the dog do the stripes?
Jas are you sure there's no hope. Is it a laptop?
My LO popped off six of my laptop keys (by biffing) but I found a website which had photos of how to pop them back on.
Do you think that would help?
We have stacks at work (University)I could probably 'find' one.
TMH a lazy afternoon sounds like a good idea.
I'm falling asleep here, might go for a snooze.
The LO wants to make biscuits so I'm looking for a recipe. They all seem to be for 150 biscuits, bit too many. [frowns]

lucysmam · 10/08/2008 16:07

I have a shortbread on that makes 15 or so rowingboat if that would help?

lucysmam · 10/08/2008 16:09

Hi everyone,

Havent read thread. Pretty naff weekend. DH now gone away on business until Wednesday. I hope to blitz the house in the next couple of days so expect some organised posting from me

We've all had dinner and the dishwasher is loaded and kitchen cleared (adv to having dh away is I eat with DDs - probably better for my waistline too). I've also cleaned all of the kitchen cupboard doors and skirting boards so it all looks nice.

I notice we have the bathroom and an extra room this week so I plan to do both bathrooms and both DDs rooms.

lucysmam · 10/08/2008 18:37
