Everbody remembers pot black-"for those of you watching in black and white the blue is next to the pink"-not sure if that is true or just apocryphal-thats a big word for Sunday night
Nola-it has been miserable here all day-at least you went past the front door
I went to wife-swap party -got a second-hand ford cortina in exchange
Becks-she is 11, just started high school this time!
Geoff-seems I have been lucky with the weather, had a walk round the garden even if I didn't do anything.
I'm at the point of needing to dig out a chunk of border to give it a sort out. Have the joy of trying to pick out as much bits of bindweed root as I can! Decided it was a bigger job than the time I had.
Had the excitement of a massive ironing pile instead!
Maybe the forum members and cake experts should be used as testers on the British Bake off programme!
Oh yes nola. I know exactly what an 11 year old's bedroom looks like.
Little Miss is poorly. She has just fell asleep, struggling with a streaming nose and eyes, refusing her milk and saying she is cold, with a duvet on her! Hate it when kids are ill.
Well I think I can safely say tonight has been the worst night I have ever had in this house.
At 2am, I went into the kitchen for my last ciggie before bed, only to discover loads of maggotts by my back door! I picked up Jessies mat, and under it were more! I picked up the mat to throw it out, opened the door, and my step, door, and patio as far as I could see in pitch black are covered in them!
So here I am, at 5.30am, still not been to bed, waiting for daylight so I can go out and see where the source is, which I suspect is my wheelie bin that never got emptied while I was on holiday. They are crawling through the cracks around the door, and are climbing up my windows! It's like a scene from a horror movie.
And to top it all, Jess has just woke up poorly. Hope all of your days start better.
The insides, of dustbins, and even containers inside the house that you might use to put waste in, even temporarily, can very easily become crawling with maggots. It can happen in just a few days. You wonder how it happened.
There are lots of kinds of maggots. There are those inside dustbins, that I assume are flies. But you can also find maggots in furniture or clothes - the lavea of clothes moths.
It's miserable here too as heavy rain is forecast, for the entire day.

Welcome to the early-bird posters' shift.

Perhaps an opportunity to wash out the dustbin.
