A girl could get lost, especially since Elly takes me a different route every time we go out! Ian there is no map of this place yet!

It exists to promote the sale of Dublin road maps. You get a new atlas, only to find an entire new town has been built in west Dublin in the time it took for you to drive home from the bookshop.

For nearly an hour! @Darlene - Our daughters know it all because we taught them! :D @Maz - I look forward to meeting you tomorrow. @Ian - I am out west so not sure who to give it to. @Magpie - My father who never did anything in the house always told us we should be able to write our name on any job we did. Alas now I find it difficult to do a job badly! @Cathy - I look forward to meeting you and all the other new friends at PodCamp. @Judy - I Sat down to think about the best way to do the jobs, that took an hour… very careful thinking!

I'll be in KK tomorrow, looking forward to hearing your newfound wisdom on how to get rid of unwanted lists (I have a few of my own...)

Or do it sooooo slowly she'll get fed up and complain and you can say," If you don't like the way I'm doing it do it yourself." and then stomp off. That was my father's trick with the painting and decorating...the stupid thing was that mother never saw through it.....he always said, "You do the preparation and I'll do the painting." then he'd start on a door and do it in the right order and slowly! Other than the jobs how are you? I second the “do it badly” advice!!!!

If you're on the southside, just give it to the au pair (there could not be a southside home without one, could there?) ;-) Grannymar,
