Good Morning

Last night I received two private messages. The first was absolutely delightful and I am grateful to that user.

The second was vile. I really have to wonder what is wrong with people who take time out of their day to go about trolling others. Reported to admin obviously.

I am not going to stop keeping MY diary for anyone.

Bob

Whoever sent vile message is obviously a very unhappy person most likely envious of your happy family life and determination Bob. You carry on ..... :T

Love the wealth, health and organisation by the way think I may adopt those headings myself !

Glad some bookings came through for you when you needed them the most! Remember this is still a new business and the first year or so can be tough. Fingers crossed you have a less stressful few months ahead!

Hello Bob - I posted on your diary when you first started it - and then 'lost' you - am subscribing this time! Have read the whole of your diary yesterday/ today - my, you have had lots of ups and downs! - but your determination and overall positivity shines through - here's hoping there are way more ups than downs going forward!

I am up to page 23! I'm really enjoying it, Bob, you are tireless!

No spoilers anyone please!

Keyboard warriors are just pathetic and obviously very jealous of you.

Keep doing what youre doing. Youre fab x

So pleased that it's all come good for you Bob. Look how well you managed, and you didn't even need to use the credit card...

Sounds like a tough month bob. Glad things are looking up.

My oldest boy has had some tough times at school. Mainly friends and his imature outlook (he is a summer baby) his transition to secondary school this year has been, in short, horrific :eek: culminating in a very worried phone call from school at the end of last term, and a bit of a panic from me and oh. Luckily all a bit of a mountain out if a molehill (but top marks to the school for following it up) and since the beginning of term he is a lot happier. But unfortunately no words of wisdom in getting G them to open up to you. Just keep yourself as available as possible and some one on one time (so hard I know!) Is invaluable. Good luck x

As ever your dinners sound awesome, I made a Yaki Soba from the wagamama cookbook, unfortunately I included toasted sesame seeds and the Wild one (4 yr old) refused it saying 'seeds are for birds to eat, not people' :rotfl: kind of logic it's hard to argue with!

Hi bob. Just been catching up with your news. Couldn't believe you'd been trolled with a PM! :mad: What a sad loser that person must be. Also hope DS is more settled.

Still all doing well this week with the bookings. :j also love the headings you have inserted in your posts.

All sounds good Bob. Glad you have some more bookings.

I'm envious of the amount you walk/cycle. I really need to up my game. I have a bike I bought two years ago but never used, woops. I'll dig it out when life is less hectic.

Hope you have a lovely evening.

Thank you Chandelier I think the 'secret' is making it a necessity. Is there an easy ride you could start off with? Say riding to the supermarket once a week?

That is such a good point FacelessNumber what makes it hard is I already have the premises and they always have to be paid for. I often wish I could have started again, maybe negotiated a new rent free period (which I had at the beginning of my lease back in 2012) but of course to the outside world the bills keep rolling whether I am running an established business or a new one.
