    Ben to the dentists and had a filling re done. It hurts more now than it did before! Friend from Skye has given me a shopping list so got to get that sorted next week, week tomorrow and I'm off.

    Managed to pick up a bargain for DS2 and DD1, shop closing down sale, got DS1 a bodywarmer for £14 and got DD2 a coat reduced from £80 to £19.99. Go me. However did forget shopping list and haven't done very well.

    Going back into town on Saturday morning with DS2 to open a savings account. Also third time lucky to get DS1s passport away, each time I go to the post office they want something different.

    Spent ages spring cleaning the hen house, looks lovely, shame I can't feel the same way about doing the house!

    Chaps are having pie for tea. Going to do some salmon for OH and I, shame I forgot the yogurt to make a nice dip, what a muppet!

    DD1 has manged to get another 4 hour slot for the bag packing, that makes a total of 8 hours. Hope she does ok. Asked a friend to drop her off so it saved hassle with the buses. I'll go and collect her later.

    DD2 has been dropped off back at home and had a great time go karting. Looks like she's got some billy bob bargains clothes wise but failed on getting some new jeggings.

    Owwwwww, got serious toothache. Going away on Friday, so need to get it sorted.

    Took the chaps to the theatre to see Terrible Tudors and Vile Victorians. It was ok they were possibly a bit old for it but it was nice to have some time together.

    You have my every sympathy with the toothache as I'm suffering from dental pain, more neuralgia than teeth but still pain. Going to have to find time to see the dentist this week myself.

    Hope its better and you get it sorted out before the end of the week

    Went to the dentists on Monday and had a root canal filling. Went back again today as still in agony, he tapped the tooth and I nearly shot out of the chair. Trying painkillers to see if it will calm down, if there's no change by Thursday it'll have to come out.

    Played badmiton, at least it took my mind off it. Taken another load of painkillers and some nytol, so hopefully I'll get some sleep.
