  1. Hope it goes well. My grand daughter had to be 'glued' at the weekend (classic forehead job) that was bad enough.
  2. meant to add to my previous post - Great news!
  3. I can't believe it's Friday already. I have actually done practically nothing on my work TDL (I have literally just made one) 😳😩 I've done the registers- but not printed off as probably late changes! (I feel I I don't print off there will be no changes, if I do there'll be loads!!!) I've printed of the new frameworks act- but not really read anything just skim read. I do need to do an 'outbreak management plan' apparently 🤷‍♀️ (I intend to just google and develop something from there!) Still waiting for the hall updates to be finished. We have been told not to panic as we have until 11th (even beyond) to get ourselves sorted, but I just want it done now. We go back on the 1st, and to be honest I wanted to do it all by myself and have a serious chuck out- now it will be up to 7 women all having there own ideas of what needs keeping/chucking!! If that's not a hot recipe for friction in work place I'm not sure what is!😭 If I'm honest I actually feel less motivated to go back than this time last year. Time for a serious retirement plan. I have my daughter's friends children with us and I really want to see their time out with us though, and in Jan I will probably have my granddaughter in for one morning- but not sure how that will work out 😳🤣
  4. I'd best stay away form that then! 🤣🤣
  5. I have just added these to my (new customer) basket! 🤣
  6. I stopped doing it once cheap exports from China became a thing. In all honesty some of the exports are really good though :)
  7. I steer away form reality type programmes as a rule, but I did get sucked into 'curvy brides' a week or so ago. I couldn't believe the actual fit of the finished dress on the wedding day shots!!! Admittedly I used to make wedding dresses so I can be picky- but I don't think the dress had been altered to personally fit the bride at all. 😳
  8. Sorry to here that. I'm no expert, and it may be just me but the air quality does sout doesn't seem to be the best at the moment which can't help.
  9. I love both the chosen dresses- I like that they complement each other in both themes and fabric choices.
  10. Yes, I've had the panic visit to the hall this morning 🤣 We've been told all will be fine, and we have until 11th Sept to fully sort our new storage (we go back 1st) but I feel out of control 😩
  11. I've always had fiesta's since they first come out :) We used to trade up every few years ... and actually to be honest the only reason my husband got his dream car was the fact I was in the ford garage at update time, and dared to look at a something a bit more upmarket than the fiesta- the salesman actually said 'oh that's a bit outside your price range'!!!!!! A red mist came over me and I told him he'd just lost a sale and I was now going to get a XXXXXXX from elsewhere !!! 🤣 (I'm actually a very layback person and I think this was my only 'red-mist' moment in my whole life)
  12. Well me personally, for a good few years I had a clapped out 2004 Ford fiesta - my dad's old car 🤣 Andy's the one that likes a nice car, however I did treat myself a couple of years ago when the fiesta finally came to end of life.
  13. Oh no... I'm going to have to follow that link and have yet another distraction from my TDL 😁
  14. Cool milk keep ringing me (well not anymore because I've blocked them!). We used to use them until they sent us a bill (well to the last owner!) charging something 96p a pint as they said we hadn't claimed! We now use a local dairy. :) We have nowhere to put backing paper - so we don't have that problem ...... but the downside to that is we have no displays as such!!! Sunny and warm here today!! I'm a bit saddened today though, I took my car for it's service- pre-pandemic it used to have a nice lounge area with coffee/tea with china cups, cakes +biscuits (even tunnock wafers!) and a full range of branded drinks. Now its hard tables and chairs and a single coffee machine! Fortunately I was a bit sceptical that they would remove this permanently using covid as their excuse.. It used to be my summer TDL focus time as an enforced focused 2-3 hours with no distractions (other than the coffee and cake!!!). Today I just left car and went out for lunch instead 😁😁😁
  15. How are people getting on? Do you think they'll redo the 'What to Expect When" ? I'm annoyed that the DM has changed from 77pgs to 128 full colour! I'd like a editable version of either to be honest.
  16. That's so nice that you rescued her rather than getting a puppy. She's obviously living her best life now 😊 How long have you had her? We have a rescue cat, she was around 2 when we got her- and I would say it took at least 4 years to be totally at ease with anyone other than us. We'd had her around two years before any of our friends actually saw her properly, I think they thought we were kidding them as we'd only ever had dogs before.
  17. Gosh you were lucky to get out. We've had constant hard rain! ...finally stopped just after 12ish. Sunny now- but I won't be planning any long walks yet a while 🌦️
  18. Love it!!!!!!
  19. Baby steps....baby steps....
  20. Totally the best feeling! Well done 🖐️ I shall watch this space! I have always had dogs until I lost my last one around 15 years ago, I really want one! Use it every other day ? 😃
  21. Solidarity - neither have I, same problem !
  22. I've just cleared my big sewing table to take on the dreaded accounts- so solidarity with Sunnyday ! Froglet - embrace the wrinkles - no seriously 'hand iron' (flatten out with hand whilst fresh off line/dryer. Having said that I do iron sheets- but they have to be washed ironed and returned to bed the same day. Not sure if I've mentioned this but we lost our rent-a-dog/holiday dog back in spring 😪 I used to love having him here for the holidays and really miss him. Although we do still have the random big cat that decided to move in.
  23. One day you will wake up and have a light bulb moment and ask yourself why? Trust me one you let it go it's like some kind of sense of freedom! I used to iron everything- and I mean EVERYTHING! Now I just iron actually needs ironing rather than all of it. The folding straightaway is the key though- never just pile it in a laundry chair basket if you do that then it will all need ironing 🤣 NOTE: Ironing actually shortens the life of items too - I can go into the science but I'm not going to. 🙂
  24. I've pretty much said the same thing on the other thread. I'm just continuing as before really- but I do think in need some knowledge incase Ofsted question me!🤣
  25. Yes, I'm lucky on the front too. I've now become an 'iron before you wear' if it needs it person. Everything get carefully folded/hung up as it comes in off the line- it's actually surprising how much can be 'hand' ironed if folded neatly enough straight from line/dryer.
