Well we never got away weekend as planned. This damn dizziness is driving my Dave mad (and to drink). Not so good as not stable on his feet, now has an added wobble!

So, I decided that while the caravan is on our drive I would give it a good clean. Off I trot with hoover, black sacks and dusters while the dogs whine and wimper thinking I'm going without them, daft sods, left front door open so they could see, worse than kids.

First thing I noticed was the fire, it was hanging off one of its brackets and a piece off the top had completely disappeared? Maybe a dog or two took a shine to it... So I did my DIY bit and now its secure, hopefully. Then I noticed the cupboard that we store the table in had lost its top. Not completely but had shifted about an inch so again my DIY skills (not) had to be used, mmmmmmmmmmm what next!!!!!!

I was nearly finished with the cleaning and repairs, yeah.............. gave the hoover one last yank, nooooooooooo. ... Dave aint going to be happy with this one, I caught the corner of the fridge surround and split the wood, cant see how I am going to get back in there with the wood glue and clamp without him seeing...............So Ive cleaned, repaired and damaged it all in one session.

Moving on I decided to sort out spare room which doubles as my sewing room (I make curtains and roman blinds) as at the moment its full of my sons boxes and I cant get to my table, so in I go on a mission only to open the curtains and the pole fall on my head, ouch!!!!!! Have to add at this point I put the pole up ha ha. Cant get to the ladder in the shed as it is burried behind whatever Dave put away gggrrrrrrrrrrrr so its wedged against the wall hanging on one very secure bracket as I couldnt rip it out of the wall. As Im feeling deflated and defeated, Im not doing anything else but call my son for HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it good luck when a bird sh..s on your head?

Not for me because the useless bugger got the back of my neck and it ran down my back YUK YUK YUK

Just feel that the world is against us at the moment, from the flying ants in the garden to the birds in the sky along with all the crap in between.

Wishing you all a good week ahead x x x

Phew, I think you need to sit down and have a rest...! all this doing is the problem... Take my advice and eat chocolate in the garden sitting on a deck chair and then you won't do any damage and nothing can go wrong and you won't notice the shed etc etc :) and you can spot the birds coming.... and yes, they say it is good luck! I think its just to make you feel better for being cr*pped on!

Still, well done for fixing all that stuff...

Hope your week is better..

I hope you're feeling better already - you deserve to, getting all that stuff done and writing about it in such a humorous way. It gave me a smile - hope that's all right with you.

A few years ago, a pigeon crapped on my head and yes, I bought a lotto draw ticket and no, I didn't win.

Good wishes to you and Dave.

Oh nanny!

Blooming heck, you did have a day of it! It's a wonder you're still standing let alone able to write a blog about it all. I'm only surprised that it's not peppered with a few more swear words.

If I were you, I'd let that son of yours sort it all out (apart from the bird poo) and put your feet up today. You've earned it.

Hope you and Dave have a better day today.

Lots of love and *hugs*, Madge x x x x

Ha Ha if only, no.1 son not too good at DIY either, more computer minded.

Little My,

Chocolate sounds great but have none though I did have a bag of liquorice allsorts in the car, DID being the operative word, yummy.

Sounds like you buy your tickets from the same shop as me !!!

Dear Madge

Believe me it was a struggle to keep from turning into a fishermans wife (my aunt called me that when I was swearing infront of the vicar that was to speak at my dads service) every word was taught by my dad, bless him). Would love to rest today but need to get in the loft now !!!!!!!!!! Can feel the swearing building up right now :)

Stay tuned, there will be more xxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Nanny,

Buy a gun shoot the birds then burn the caravan. Buy a bottle of brandy and get drunk.
