YG, he isn’t in the doghouse now, we managed to put all the boxes and fans in the attic.

I reckon LG is in hiding for a minor misdemeanour ;-)

We have a built in oven so no need to clean behind it, fridge is easy to pull out even for me lol. Washing machine well not a chance, to heavy. So you did well with all that Maz.

Evening everyone :-)

ZZzzz, rant any time you like :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D Men are such a pain in the rear end sometimes ;-) ;-) :-D :-D :-D :-D Is he still in the doghouse?

Maz, that's a job well done!! I daren't pull my dishwasher or cooker out. It would mean disconnecting the pipework on the dishwasher and I have already had one flood and the tiles under the cooker are cracking with the heat so I don't want to risk breaking them. I did the floor behind the washing machine when the engineer had it out last week!

I've had my flu jab this morning and got a very sore arm tonight. Ig is the first time that the nurse has hurt me. I don't normally feel it :-0 :-0 :-0

Where is LG hiding tonight??

Warning, rant coming on.
I sorted some kitchen cupboards out a week ago so there are boxes and bags everywhere ready to go in the attic, it looks like we are moving house, hubby said about putting the fans in the attic because they are in his way, 1 is behind a door which is never shut and 1 is behind a lounge chair so not in anyone’s way, he knew he made me angry because he washed the dishes and did a couple of other jobs too.
I’m still so angry I feel sick.
Thanks for listening to my rant and I hope you are having a good day/weekend.

I will be into the shop and out again at the blink of an eye wearing my favourite mask.
I will wish you all goodnight as we are off up the wooden hill very soon, sleep well and see you tomorrow. :-D <3

Evening Elizabeth :-) Lovely to see you again. Take good care of yourself and familly and I hope yo have a lovely weekend :-)

Good luck with the visit to the town, LG :-|

I need to go for new glasses, but my optician is in the Mall and I don't want to be in there on a Saturday. According to reports the security guards are doing naf all to challenge anyone without a mask. I might decide to change to Boots as they have one just out of town with their own parking facility. :-)

Good evening Elizabeth, lovely to see you. I hope you have a lovely weekend too.
We have been avoiding big towns but we have to venture to one tomorrow as I need one of the big stores

YG Report 9 Oct 2020 21:14

There's none where I live, but some up on the main road a few hundred yards away and then in other areas of the town. It is not as severe as the rest of the North so I hope that they restrict it to the pubs. The restaurants generally are very well organised and I don't see why they should be penalised. There's no university here, but there is a large college and the younger people are the ones that are out and about, like my bloomin' eldest gd :-| She is quite complacent and travels a lot with her job but will have to comply with regulations when visiting sites. The regular 2-3 trips to the huge shopping mall in the neighbouring city isn't a good idea though, when she has a nan that is far from well and an uncle that is immune system compromised.

We have had very few cases here in the immediate area.

YG

YG Report 9 Oct 2020 20:35

The way things are going here, we might have a restriction on households visiting next week, although there have been no new admissions today, there has been another death. According to our local Directory of Public Health, the majority of positive cases are all in the age group of 15 to 34.

Usually when you don’t look forward to something it turns out better than you thought it would.

I can't be doing with the unmentinable season at all unless we spend it with the kids. Too many sad memories for us unless little ones are about to distract us.
I have avoided it so far Maz :-D

LG glad OH is better ,are you staying clear .of the bug too
YG well done ,you will enjoy going clothes shopping ????

YG Report 9 Oct 2020 19:57

Hi LG :-)

I can't get my mojo going for the unmentionable season shopping. I have bought one soft toy for Poppy and that's it for now!! I have the birthday gifts for C ready for the end of the month. V's is the week after and apparently she wants money.

I can't say that I'm looking foward to next year, as she will be in her house by then and wants us and her b/fs family to go for the day. She will be living about 14 miles away and I don't fancy driving that distance home in the dark. If I go with R, I am stuck until they leave and I don't know whether I can stand it for the whole day!!

We were recalling about how my sister in law used to buy us the most unless Christmas and birthday presents, one year I had an umbrella she knew I cycled everywhere, hubby had a recipe book for making wine from scratch knowing he made it from kits, so what we did was gather that and more packed it in a box sealed it put a note inside saying maybe she could make better use of it all.

Revenge tasted quite sweet that year.

Evening YG, well done you with the weight loss. OH is still feeling very tired and washed out but otherwise ok thanks.

Evening everyone :-)

LG, I hope your OH is feeling better today :-)

ZZzzz, I hope all goes well for your hubby on Monday :-)

It has been dry for the better part of the day, but had a quick, cold rain shower during early evening.

I had a lazy morning apart from a bit of vacuuming, then spent 3.5 hours in the hairdressers so look gawjus again tonight :-) :-) Another pound lost this week (miraculously!!) so that's 10lb up to now. If I can keep it up till the end of the year I will have hopefully lost almost another stone, then I will be a happy bunny! Nothing will fit though :-D :-D :-D
