Candygirl - I agree with Snowy; what a truly dreadful way to treat your father. I would definitely put in a complaint.
Taplady - I hope Taplord's pigeons have made it back by now.
Well, I'm just sat here waiting for DH who should have been home by now. I could have got on with something if I'd known he was going to be later than he said. Typical! Well, I can always have another cuppa!
See you.

ooooooh Nelski - cheers for lending us the boys again - I don't feel quite so Home Alone now
well dd is off - I am tracking her flight at the mo. It wasn't so bad but there was a problem with soe of the passengers at check in - something to do with a visa so they were late picking up the UM's - dd and another little boy. They picked her up 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time so the man was telling us to hurry up as the families were kissing their LO's good bye. One of my famous Mother Tiger Looks and he backed off though. I had to wait in the airport until the flight was airborne which was 45 minutes later than scheduled. I've had a cry (on the bus - how embarassing) and am ok now and am looking forward to some free time. Nothing planned but might have a "Boring Mum Film" Fest later onI'm going to feed our children non-organic food and with the money saved take them to the zoo - half man half biscuit 20080 -
I have spoken to Dad's cancer nurse from the hospice, she is disgusted and said he can go there for any further transfusions.Just been to see him and he was sitting in his garden chair with his coat on, even though it's hot and sunny here today:(

Hugs Stefe, go and enjoy yourself with Nelski's boys.

I've been playing holidaymaker this afternoon, I met up with friends who are visiting family here and we wandered along the promenade in the sunshine, I've caught the sun, so I would think that there will be some sore bodies tonight, judging by how many folk were stripped off on the beach.
Managed to collect some YS stuff in M&S and some that was half price, so that's tea sorted, steak from out of the freezer with Pamentier potatoes and veg. :drool:
My friends are off to a show tonight, so I might meet up with them later for a little refreshment or two :beer:Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no: 203.0 -

REDRUBY meant to say congrats on your OH passing his test, he can drive you home from the pub in future.
CANDYGIRL your poor Dad could have developed a pressure sore, I would complain, hugs to both of you.
Been a bit miserable here, started to drizzle so I have washing everywhere. DS has had a pyjamma day today. Have cleaned the bathroom and spent 1 1/2 hours down the allotment and put in some more caulis, dug and weeded. Have just picked my first beetroot, cooked it up and had it with a cheese sandwich, it was lovely.
Made a curry with chickpeas, HG spinach and HG new pots for tea, lovely.m on my first glass of wine and intend DS and I shall have an early night as I'm working tomorrow.
Have a good evening all, anyone else missing Dr. Who?

Well, I'm all dressed up 60s style and ready to go, just waiting for the Other Half to get ready now and for the tumble drier to finish so we can go.
Am wearing a mini skirt and make up as suggested, but haven't got any knee high boots so am making do with something similar but shoe-based!
Have a lovely evening, everyone!Continually trying the Grocery Challenge. Gotta keep trying!0
