sprite

2:10 am
grannyrose

sprite
and counting. Glad it is this soon now.
2:17 am
grannyrose
yeah. and don and i will continue with a little more 'deep' cleaning. tomorrow i want to wash our bedroom curtains and clean the windows...and that is it total.
2:17 am
sprite
good. as long as you remember to pace yourself and to let Don take the heavy lifting, it should work out.
2:18 am
Maisie
Good morning, catch up with you both at last.
2:18 am
grannyrose
each little bit will come together as a whole when we have finished. breaking the cleaning into smaller chunks which we both can handle.
2:18 am
grannyrose
{{maisie}} hugs and kisses dear friend.
2:18 am
sprite
*hugs Maisie* Hello dear one, how are you today?
2:19 am
sprite
brilliant, rose. That is the way to go.
2:20 am
sprite
am not going to this morning's meeting, I do not have the car and I don't feel up to public transportation today. Easy does it here as well.
2:20 am
Maisie
Hi. I seem to have missed you both when I've managed to get on here. See Rose is struggling, hope Thursday is good for you
2:20 am
grannyrose
we are going to move the furniture around a bit, but as i said to Don, not until everything is clean and ready to go into it's new place.
2:20 am
grannyrose
thanx Maisie. and Sprite. i so agree.
2:20 am
sprite
we missed you, Maisie. Good to see you now.
2:21 am
Maisie

2:24 am
Maisie
Just seen an advert here for Aldi who are doing sloe gin mince pies for Christmas, think I might have to try those
2:24 am

2:33 am
Maisie
I'm fine thanks, got a busy day cleaning and packing for my holiday. Bit early because we're not leaving till Thursday but I've got a days work tomorrow and then have children to look after all day Tuesday and Wednesday plus a dog which needs returning to it's ownere Thursday morning
2:33 am
grannyrose
does this mean i alsmost memorised enable's list?
2:33 am
sprite
a full schedule, Maisie. But lovely that your holiday is this close now.
2:33 am
sprite
it does, rose.
2:34 am
grannyrose
how sad, sprite.... lolll.... means my monkeys will be unemployed.
2:34 am
Maisie
Yes getting excited now
2:35 am
sprite
babble will no longer be a challenge, rose, and therefore no longer fun to play... you will slowly start staying away from babble... *sings theme of Jaws to set the right mood for this horror story*
2:35 am
grannyrose
roll 'm, roll 'em, roll 'em, get those wheels a rollin"....
2:35 am
sprite
I bet, Maisie! And so smart to get the packing mostly done already. That will save you a lot of stress later this week.
2:36 am
sprite
*lures Rose's monkeys to her side* Here boys... she doesn't ne4 you anymore... I do... especially for the biggies...
2:36 am
grannyrose
rofloll, sprite, like that is going to happen... and miss my daily water fight with you....*squirt, squirt* ha ! gotch !
2:36 am
Maisie
and hopefully not too many creased clothes. I'm in awe of rose packing for the grand tour
2:37 am
sprite
darn, she got me *wrings out nightie*
2:37 am
grannyrose
trick Maisie, is to roll your clothes, not just fold them.
2:38 am
sprite
no folding, Maisie, just roll 'm up
2:38 am
Maisie
Right, any other tips
2:38 am
grannyrose
and have the essentials packed where they are easily eached, without disturbing the rest of your packing.
2:39 am
grannyrose
ahem, "reached"
2:39 am
sprite
the holey stuff to throw away, but that was already mentioned in earlier babble chogs.
2:39 am
Maisie
I was planning to live out of my overnight bag as we are only in Shanghai for 2 nights before we move on, save disturbing the bigger case
2:40 am
Maisie
Oh yes have all the holy knickers ready lol
2:40 am
sprite
smart thinking, that should work
2:40 am
grannyrose
what we did too, Maisie. anything longer we took in the suitcase, but for a few days, an overnight bag is a must
2:41 am
Maisie
Our next stay is 4 nights so will repack the overnight bag while there
2:41 am
grannyrose
we actually used our carry-on bags as our overnight bags.
2:41 am
Maisie
Thats what we are doing
2:45 am
grannyrose
we had zip closed bags in our suitcases which would take anything larger than the 100ml requirement. in the carry-on bags, all our meds, signed list by our GP, all our paperwork and two changes of clothes. try and wear your anoraks etc as you go on board. not counted as hand-luggage then.
2:46 am
grannyrose
oh, and our toiletries of course.
2:47 am
sprite
I seemed to remember you having brushed teeth, indeed, rose
2:47 am
Maisie
We have an overnight flight so our coats can double up as blankets if it gets cold,
2:47 am
sprite
planes are always too hot or too cold, or both
2:48 am
grannyrose
they hand out the softest cuddly blankets on board Maisie, and save the pillow for the small of your back.
2:49 am
Maisie
I was reading something about airlines not washing the blankets
2:49 am
grannyrose
take with you one of those inflatable pillows that goes around your neck.
2:49 am
Maisie
oh dear the list gets longer and longer, good job I'm starting early
2:50 am
grannyrose
oh they certainly did on Emirates. one bag for collecting the used ones, and one for unused ones, still in their sealed bag.
2:50 am
sprite
no predating your tickets now
2:51 am
Maisie
No definitely not
2:52 am
Maisie
Emirates is a good airline, we are travelling with a chinese one
2:53 am
sprite
just bring a small desinfectant spray with you, and spray the part of the blanket close to your mouth.
2:53 am
sprite
okay, time for me to get the washing machine going. *hugs* and lots of love.
2:54 am
Maisie
bye sprite don't work too hard
2:55 am
grannyrose
WTG SPRITE !!! enjoy your lovely day which is stretched bfore you. my love and hugs as always. xoxox
