    Don't worry about chicken pox BB, DD had it last year, about 3 weeks into my going back to work!! Hope he doesn't suffer too much..x

  • Hi Benben

    You are doing well as ever with the mortgage challenge.

    Would Piriton tablets help with the itching?

    Ds was itchy a bit more during the night but this morning, other than 2 new spots on his foot there are no signs of any more :rolleyes: :D i'm still not100% convinced it is chickenpox, purely because we've been round this roundabout several times before, although to be honest this time it seems to be more likely than before ;)

    Anyway, as he doesn't have schol today my mum is having him for the day. I will need to cancel a mystery shop on saturday as I can't ask her to have him again as shes having him allweek for me :o Not a major problem,I'll just have to make up the money from aqa instead :D

    Have a good spot-free day everyone :D:D
