    Kazmeister - Yeah it happens to me all the time too :mad: Usually after I've typed out the message I highlight it and copy it, that way if I do loose it I can just paste it back into another message, but like you I have to remember to do it :rotfl:

    back again.

    Sam didn't like being jabbed or his hip exam, but he spent the rest of the morning with me feeding him, and now he is fast asleep on the sofa - which i was glad about as nearly 3 hours of holding him and i am pooped. They gave me a prescription for parecetomol liquid for him, so i collected that while we were out, wasn't sure if i had calpol in as ds1 seems better with nurofen.

    WM is earning its keep today. It is doing its 3rd load, and i have 3 loads of clothes out on the line. :T I have just had a bit of a strange lunch - a small portion of chilli that was meant for ds1 yesterday but we were out, with chow mein flavour instant noodles and cheese on top. It was quite tasty though.

    house is not too bad - did an hour of ironing after i got off the computer last night, so i might wash up and then spend a bit of time chilling while i can. Or then, if ds is ok, might walk up to the bank finally to sign that form.

    I've another load or two i can stick in the WM as well. Oh the choices. ;)

    lil me and nicki hope the studying is going well for you today.

    kaz sorry your pooch is not well, my mum and dad have never had sick for the sake of it dogs either, and they have had 8 in their time. Only if ill, or ate something they shouldn't. Thanks for asking about the tooth - thankfully not painful - i was just being pro-active and getting it dealt with while i have my maternity exemption certificate and not needing to pay. That's the problem with trying to be organised -you actually have to do the things you would rather put off too. ;)

    I hope you're getting better "hot" than we are. It is quite warm but has been raining on and off all day :rolleyes:

    Morning all

    Slept very well. Today is going to be really hot apparantly so it's the flowing skirt again methinks. I have a washing machine full to go out on the line which I'll do in a minute, after my bath.

    Then tonight I'll do the bathroom and study area.

    Have a nice day ladies.

    tia second that thought about talktalk - i complained to ofcom about them as they actually started filling in the contract while i was talking to them even though i was saying no, and wouldn't let me off the phone, and when i put the phone down they rang straight back. It is harrassment isn't it.

    Omega 3s, i agree that they work - they really calmed down two boys in my form - boots do a liquid version as i used to make Charlie have it on a spoon when he was small, but it is rank - i never tasted it but it had a strong fishy smell. I think i would just go for a food that was enriched with it personally - can't you even buy bread with it in nowadays?
