I got downstairs to finding rotting potatoes in the kitchen cupboard which sparked off a spot of spring cleaning in the kitchen that lasted about 3 hours!!! - all clean now. :razz: Anthea would be proud of me!
Alex tooks girls to Tesco for a top-up of bits (again - doesn’t it seem we’re always bl**dy there!), then came home to drop off and set off again for toys’ r us - to look at new transformers?? (don’t ask me why - it’s a boy thing) by then I’d started on Hermionie’s pit where she had emptied every item of clothing she owns onto the floor and had unfolded them all - thanks hun! Sorted lots of clothes out! And culled alot of toys - should help pay the mortgage!
Moved more of Hermionie’s stuff into Natalie’s rooms (mainly books).
We all popped of to S&G’s to say hi.
Came home and had pizzas and rice for dinner while kids (Alex being one of them!) watched ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’ (so not my cup of t!).
Natalie told me that 5 of the Cabbage white’s have turned in chrysalises’. Gave S some caterpillars from our cabbage patch to do the life-cycle thing again in her big pavilion net with J&K. While we’re on it - we have released our butterflies (all except 2) and now have cabbage white caterpillars happily munching through what is left of my neglected cabbages as are the rabbits! We also have a cabbage looper caterpillar (a moth I think?). The stick insects are growing well, one male has shed his skin, although I’m not too sure about the look of his wings?? - will have to google that one.
Watched Holby & Heroes.
