    Forgot to say that the cat has disappeared. He has been missing since Sunday morning. DD2 is quite upset. She is busy making posters to try and find him. Have phoned the local vets but they haven't got any strays in.

    OH glasses are ready. I dread to think what they look like as he has been describing them to me and I am getting images of Mr Magoo!

    I'm not surprised you feel bleurgh right now, lucielle - you have a heck of a lot on your plate.

    I wish I could do something to make it better......I really do!

    Thanks chaps. Everything will come right I hope. DS1 is busy arranging his social life which has just got complicated. OH has gone to bed as he looks shattered. I have been doing some bookwork and paying some of OHs bills for the business. Thinking about getting SAGE. Any thoughts from the clever peeps out there.

    My friend uses sage, and even when the revenue/VAT people visit, they take one look and say they can't find fault.....she swears by sage. I've never had cause to use it, so have no idea other than what she says, though!

    I've heard it's very good.
    I've never done a spreadsheet so obviously haven't used it.
    Most firms use it so it must be good.

    Hi Luc, just been having a catch up, hope your DS is feeling better and they manage to save his teeth.

    Fingers crossed for the cat, hope it turns up soon.

    Take some time for yourself x x x

    OOh Lucielle I didn't recognise you with the new avatar. Am I the only person without one? Someone tell me how to do it!

    On a more serious note, hope the cat comes home and your son is feeling better. I do think dentists tend to give you the worst case scenario, at least that has been my experience.

    Morning Seaxwyn, if you go back a couple of pages on Taxis thread she has got destructions on how to do it. She told me.

    Still no sign of the missing moggy. Not sure he will come back as he will have been gone for nearly a week.

    Been to the horses and put the old boys rug on. I found one that I didn't know I had so that should be him snuggly for a while before he gets his proper winter one on.

    2 loads of washing on the line and horsey numnah in the wash (far more important than washing our bedding!). Last night I hoovered everywhere and dusted the living room. Going to make bacon butties for lunch and as its Saturday we usually have a srappy tea in fron of the tele. Have chicken for tomorrow. Off to make some paper bricks.

    PS page 36 on Taxis diary. Looking forward to seeing what you get!
