Household:
Make banana cake
Carry on with laundry
Call my aunt
Phone school run mum re broken toy
Order foam/wadding to make cushions for chairs

Work:
Email Futurity re website
Order portfolio
Upload photos to Photobox and get prints
Send cassette tape to be transferred to CD
Track down book for research

If I get al those things done, then I will be able to relax and enjoy my weekend away...
Will check back later.

Morning everyone

DS was quite disturbed in the night, and DH is working at home today so I had a lovely lie in until 10am . DS has still got a temp and really isn't himself. Lots to do today now, but the weather is all murky - meh is the perfect word for how I feel! I think I will just make a short list too.

MM - you do sound a bit perkier. Always good to know there is going to be nice food in the house!

JKS - glad you've had a calm night

CWWM - it's rubbish having stupid rows, always gets me down.

Welcome Wilbur

ITS RAINING HERE, so hope you are all enjoying the weather your getting!!

I forgot to tell brag you all about my claim to fame, Have you heard of The Priests?
Well one of them is my Parish priest and he will be doing dd1s communion and she had her pic in the Daily Mirror with him on Christmas Eve, and he was also the parish priest of my old parish so he married dh and I, and christened dd1, (Its actually quite boring and useless piece of information but there you go).

Think I'll go with a mini list today also

Unpack Tesco shopping
Make phonecalls for dh
unload dishwasher
make lunch

Welcome Wilbur.

Plum - Never heard of them but congrats on your claim to fame. My claim to fame is soo much better hehe.

I still have pains but feel better in myself

ohh MM do tell, are you famous? related to someone famous, sleeping with someone famous?? I promise I won't tell

I have no claim to fame.

Back from volunteering all the way over the other side of town and the girl didn't turn up. So I stood around for a bit in the place I was supposed to meet her, got slightly rained on, and came back. Good exercise though (over 4 miles to cycle there and then another 4 and a bit back) so I can have something nice for lunch.

Am I famous... NO
Am I sleeping with anyone famous...NO
However, I am related to Elton John - He is my nans cousin

Ooh that is quite a claim to fame

George Stephenson was my great great great uncle

I used to live next door to Charles Dickens' grandson

I was childhood friends with the Scudamores (jockey type people if you haven't heard of them)

Not as impressive as Elton John though

My ex-housemates went to school with the new Doctor. Probably not as good a long-term claim to fame as Elton John though.

Yeap I think Elton John wins

but here is The Priests if your interested [yawn]

Plum - I think I know them now!

The only other thing is before DD was born, I used to go clubbing every weekend with the Portsmouth Football Clubs First Team.

Ooh Plum that is exciting - I quite like them actually...

MM - I think Elton John does win though!

TA - what's your view on the new Dr? I am

Not sure about the new Dr, but it took me a long time to get used to David Tennant - after Christopher Eccleston he just seemed to small and girly. I guess we need to see him as the Doctor to make a decision.
