    My colleague just made team for the team and mixed up the tea bags. Instead of my lovely PG Tips, I have a cup of Tetley Redbush which tastes nothing like tea, but is supposed to be good for you so I'm going to grin and bear it!


    That redbush advert cracks me up.... it was on one time and Erin said "Mum, what a tickly redbush?" it's just the woman's accent i guess, but it does sound like "tickly red bush" and makes me chuckle every time.














    I'll get my coat.

    It's 11 and I'm still in my jammies, oops.

    I'm dead from yesterday, being a kid must be exhausting! We went to an indoor play place and I spent the day looking after the sweetest kids but they made me play too, so I'm reaaaaaaaaally tired and sore :(

    IA - Tat looking good!!! Big G is off today getting a big tat done.... he has 2 big tribal arm ones, so is getting some kinda back piece to go in between... i do think they are quite sexy TBH! but i'd never tell him that....!
    Ste wants his full arm done tribal. He's got quite a few tribal bits on his arms already and wants them incorporated into one. As apparently 'It's his turn next...' lol.

    the thing is getting tattoos is kinda infectious, no pun intended! once you've got one, then you want another, and another.... he didn't have any about 6 months ago....

    I have 1 orchid on my shoulder which was a cover up of a black cat i got done when i was about 20......

    now i'd like one at bottom of my back.... where BB has hers.... were you lurking, did you see hers? very nice!

    You should try the shoulder blade :eek: Back in general hurt no matter where you have it done, especially over the spine. I've got one at the top as you can see in the pic, one across the bottom of my back and now my orchids/swirls. Backs hurt.

  • Hey all,


    Sad day for the Bunny Family as our little Turkey Chops has had to be put done. He's gone down hill rapidly since he got diabetes and wasn't eating properly, lost all his weight, and ws starting to go blind. He was also having issues with this 'poo' and ended up with maggots (I know, horrible isnt it?) He was a lovely long haired black fellow so I guess he just couldn't keep himself clean anymore. Anyway, have spent the morning crying but will have to pull myslef together for work...

    I also have a very swollen elbow as I managed to wack it on the door frame and it really hurts.

    And finally, to round off my wonderful morning, took car into garage as it's been sounding like a boy racer-and the catalytic convertor has gone and need a new oxygen sensor-£300! !!!!!!. Poor man was so concerned as I sat in kwit fit crying but I didn't want to tell him it was because of my cat.

    awwww babes.... that is a sh1tty day right enough... so sorry about the cat.... hopefully the kids will take it okay. Erin was about Freya's age when we had to get our Bentley put down and i remember she took it very well. She was more upset by him being unwell... kids are resilient...

    ouch re the elbow.... ice and rest for half an hour see if that helps.

    Do you need to go into work?

    !!!!!! news about the car too.... there is no cheap fix re catalytic converter i think, but maybe you can put it off for a while.... when's MOT due?
