    Oh OO, I am sooooooo pleased!!! :j :j :j

    Hopefully your day will turn around a bit now.....don't you just hate days where you feel like you should have stayed in bed.

    And ignore people who shout things like 'that' at you - look at it this way - would you really WANT the approval of someone who thinks that sort of behaviour is acceptable? :)

    This morning FK turned up distraught. A client of ours (whom we were very fond of) died this morning.

    A whole new (vulnerable) side to her. Unbelievable.

    The celebratory Indian DS2 & DD & I were going to have tonight has been blown out of the water. Their Dad :eek: :eek: wants to take us ALL out tonight :eek: to some Swanky hotel to celebrate. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I can endure an evening of the Arrogant One as he's paying. And DD has agreed to drive :D

    This week is turning into a bit of an emotional roller coaster. How I wish for a dull life :rotfl:

    Well I'm never going to eat again:D
    And possibly never drink again :D
    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I needed to eat to drown the "my Son, I'm so proud of My Son" noise. Poor DD :o
    But we had champagne, and posh food. :D
