Now I'm panicking!!!

Well stop posting on Gransnet and get on with it!! . Good luck!

I could clean the odd window if you like. (I've got a Karcher)

You'd better put a blocker on Gransnet. I've got one called Leechblock. It's cuts in at 10 am. And then I go on my mini i-pad.

Good luck with all that, Ash. On the bright side, you have a lovely new GC to look forward to.

I was aware of the irony in starting this thread, even as I was typing it jings . Now IS NOT the time to procrastinate!
I'll just finish this and and then I'll get stuck in....

PS. Ash - how very lucky your DD is to have you.

Oh, and thank you, all offers of window cleaning (and any other cleaning) gratefully accepted. Lots of will be available in payment

You would have only put all those jobs off until the last moment anyway

Thanks anno. Yes I am so looking forward to the new little one - and DD never stops saying she doesn't know what she'd do without us. I keep telling her it's all part of the JD, which she will very soon be finding out

And apologies, Jane10, just noticed it was you, not jings who told me to get off GN and get on with it .

Right, I'm going. I am. Honest injun.

I did too! I told you how.

Oh. She's gone.

We will let you back on when all the jobs are finished

I'm off to do my jobs [virtuous halo]

No sleep for you then! Enjoy having a new little one - I know I am!

I'm back, temporarily! Yes jings you did tell me how, sorry. But it was Jane10 who told me to bugger off stop posting on GN and get on with it
Update: I have now more or less finished the little album, just got to find two little metal things to stick on the cover which will then close onto the magnetic strip I've attached. might have to raid DH's 'bits and bobs' supply in the garage. Then will have to cut out pretty shapes from pastel coloured paper to take to the baby shower and ask each friend to write down their 'fairy godmother wish' for the baby (away from prying Mum-to-be's eyes!). These will be pasted into the album with all sorts of pretty embellishments. Very pleased with it so far. Having another now (but no ) and about to finish knitting little hat. Happy days [sun]

Oops, sorry roseq, forgot to ask permission to come back on before finishing all the jobs .
I'm off again. Byeeeee xx

Oh, and thanks Mishap - yes I plan to thoroughly enjoy this little one. Pity we can't get together and have a big proud Grandmother show-off session .

shine

(that's the bit you left off your emoti)

She's probably panicking more than the mum!

Now the little beanie hat's finished! Time to get started on the cardigans

One a day, no problem!

You are so speedy! Well done.

This is very exciting, keep us updated.

I had better go and get on with the DGD's cardigans (a bit bigger than newborn).
There is nothing like procrastinating, it is very enjoyable.

Oh it is! I love procrastination. I remember seeing a Simon Drew tea towel in his shop in Dartmouth - it had little cartoon pigs (I think) carrying banners which read:

What do we want?
Procrastination!
When do we want it?
Tomorrow!

I am still here, and the front bands need picking up and knitting on one of the cardigans.
