Yes Taxi it is. Nothing so far today but I did manage to sleep and not get up at sdme crazy time to buy tickets!
Taking DS2 to the orthodontist this morning. Seem to spend all my time at the dentists.
Had the police on the phone regarding the incident. They have brought the boy in for questioning and bailed him until 29/12. 1 'friend' refused to give a statement so the police are approaching 2 other witnesses.

Good luck at the dentist today. Sounds like the police are finally getting things sorted out, seems to take forever I know from past issues I had when my dad was attacked in his own home! It seems to take over everyday life.
Hope you have a good day anyway.Visa £[STRIKE]5063 [/STRIKE]now 0. Loan 1 €[STRIKE]4885[/STRIKE] now 0. Loan 2 €29,590 now €0 as of 22/02/2016 Mgage €55000/ €23,639 at 01/02/18

As we thought DS2 is going to need braces he is back again on the 1st to have the moulds taken and then on the 21st to have it fitted. He has to have his bottom ones pulled out and his top ones are nearly ok. From what she said it will take a while for him to get used to them, eating and talking so he has the Christmas hols to work on that.
Went out for lunch with my friend. Came home and OH and I went and moved the horses to a different field and hopefully they can stay out a bit longer.

Sorry to hear that DSs tooth recovery is going to be a long one.I hope you are writing every treatment down so the courts can see exactly what impact the thug had on him.
Hope you had a lovely lunch x0 -
Sorry for the confusion, DS2 wasn't the one attacked it was his big brother who has had to braces put on because of what happened, which is why I feel as if I'm never away from the dentist. 1 goes to the orthodontist and the other goes to the dental hospital.
Nothing won on BB today *sob* so I hope some other DFWs have won.
Lamb chops under the grill, so better go and turn them
