    Sorry for the moans been feeling a bit vulnerable lately. Going parascending tomorrow as long as the weather conditions are ok. OH bought it for me a few years ago and saw the chap who runs it the other day and its now arranged. Tis a lovely day today so got the washer going overtime.

    Finally finished stocktaking today, its been a long slog but should be easier for the future.

    Perth was lovely but so glad I don't have a long commute every day as got stuck round Edinburgh for over an hour just due to traffic. OH had a play with the new products, lunch was nothing special and wasn't the free lunch I was hoping it was going to be. Did have a lovely tea out!

    Lucielle..do keep posting. It's great to hear from you. As others have said, you're an inspiration!

    How's the CC? Mine are going down steadily but I am fairly obsessed with getting rid once and for all. It's a perpetual burden..I think about debt for a good proportion of every day..won't be sorry to get shot of that feeling !:o:eek:

  • Whilst I admire you're courage - I'm too old a crock to throw self into fresh air ever again.

    I hope if its rescheduled you enjoy it.

    Glad you enjoyed perth too.

    Remind me how many of your younglings are still at home and if you'd like a 17 year old to fill any gaps.

    :)

    She's very very free - I'll even pay delivery.
