Thanks for the breww, in need of it as I've been doing house work, yuck. Going to mop the floors in a mo and then carry on with paperwork. Day off today, can you tell? Got DS2 to take to the orthdontist later on. I've also reserved a potential birthday pressie for him so will stop off on the way back and let him see if thats what he wants.
Back is still a bit achey. Still having tele box problems, wish I'd never started now. Thought it was solved the other day with a new booster box but it still keeps drifing in and out of signal, getting seriously p1$$ed off with it all.
DS2s turkeys should be arriving at the end of the month and have yet to get the shed sorted where they're going. Got bil and sil coming to stay next weekend which will be good as not seen them for ages. Hopefully will manage a meal out with them. Payday for me next Wednesday not that I'm counting or anything. Best locate the mop and use the wretched thing.

Floor mopped. Go me. Been on hold to WFT and s I thought not entitled to anything as DS1 has started work/apprenticeship. Will now have to notify CHB. Hav e told DS1 that I need board money seems ok so far.

We have talked about it and I asked him to come up with a figure (but I had 1 in mind). He offered £30pw but I told him that was too much and we've agreed £20. He gets a pittance per hour and I would love to be able to put all his board money away for him as a sort of nest egg, but I can't afford to.

No - they are not cheap to feed at that age.., My DS is 13 and wants to eat everything but because he is a bit overweight... I'd rather he didn't... but he grew about 4 inches in the summer - so I don't know what is a healthy weight as if he gets to his projected height of 6ft2 he may need the extra calories...
