Having decided to do something about a wobbly path I made some years ago (slabs not perfectly balanced on breeze blocks) I lifted some of the slabs and found the spaces contained loads of frogs. Then I remembered I'd created the holes as a potential place for frogs to spend their time in.

I appear to have laundered a paper hanky in the last load of washing I did. But at least it wasn't a fully loaded fountain pen.

We used the washing machine for the first time in our brand new utility room:

Only minor as the plumber who'd installed it was round within half an hour, it was a quick fix and the floor is vinyl click so waterproof.

Was a bit alarming at the time though

I’m glad that it wasn’t too serious, but I think that you might need slightly larger sponge to mop all that water up 😉

:-0 :-) I shouldn't laugh, but having once been greeted by a Labrador with a newly planted and quite expensive shrub in her mouth, I know the feeling!

You're going to need a bigger sponge.

Did a huge online Tesco shop over the weekend for 2 families to be delivered this morning for us to take to Centreparcs with us. At 7.30 this morning, Tesco emailed to say that the order had been cancelled for technical reasons! WTAF??!
