Dinkie Dawnies Dubious Diary of Downsizing, Deflation, and Debauchery

[Pommette]

. . . I do get quite het up about housework sometimes, especially if someones coming round. The whole house has to be done. . .

Apart from the bathroom (which I admit I'm obsessive about) I just ignore the rest of the dust and cat fluff everywhere. It only comes back in a few hours anyway. LOL.

But I'm just like you Dawn if someone is coming. The whole house gets done from stem to stern - even if we will only be using the dining room for a meal.

That is a bugger - I was going to suggest using the philli as your hea, wonder why you can't use the extra light version, you used to be able to as a B on green... These sort of things confuse the heck out of me!!

Confused of Spain here too! Looked at my book and there is bu**er all on Philly. So looked it up online - for a green day.
Why can you have 71g Philly Light as a HexA BUT not Philly EL?
But for a HexB you can have 42g Philly (full fat), 71g Philly L flavoured or 100g Philly EL. And there is no mention of Philly L as a HexB.
HELP .........:giveup:

Exactly! I don't get it either! I don't know if its something to do with the calcium content...? Really haven't got a clue lol! Xx

All this talk of Philly EL doesn't matter a jot to me though. As I can't get it here in Spain. Even Philly Light can often be tricky to find!

Sorry to hear about your uncle Dawn.. how awful for you. I think you have had more than your fair share of bad deals lately., Bless you! ..

My D vacums every day too and steam cleans thro' about once a week. Me? .. I do it when necessary and when my back is allowing me a good day to be able to get to grips with it. Do like to keep the bathroom washbasin and loo cleaned every other day.

Apparently we are in for some seriously hot weather so hope you will enjoy it.
Have a good day, Dawn...

Thanks Emmaline, its nice to have you home xxx

Thankyou for your kind words on my diary... brought a tear to my eye! ... :wave_cry:

 

[julesm]

So sorry about your uncle Dawn. You're being so brave as usual. Hope you and your family are ok.

Would love the recipe for the chickpea cake if it's yum?

Also can I add that I hate cleaning. As soon as I can afford a cleaner, it's going to be on the top of my priority list. The other week there was a groupon offer for a team of cleaners to come to deep clean your house for 2 hours for 30 quid. I snapped it right up. Cannot....... WAIT! Xxxxx

Hi Michelle xx

Yep, back down to earth with a mahooosive bump lol!!!

 

[Bess]

EVERY day hunni...otherwise there are tears!!! :cry:

But I'm just like you Dawn if someone is coming. The whole house gets done from stem to stern - even if we will only be using the dining room for a meal.

I know we tease each other about this, but I really don't know how you find the time. Our farmhouse is just a cottage, but to clean it properly would take me all day, hence the bathroom, loos and kitchen just get daily attention.

Glad you had a better day at work today Dawn.
