    Hi CCStar,

    The weather has been terrible here and heating has been on full blast for ages! I'm sure you'll hear all about it when your son gets back. I hope he enjoys his trip. That M6 accident was shocking, so sad.

    I'm pretty tired too today, but am just going out to see a friend, then hopefully nothing else for the rest of the day.

    I really like the £10 deal in Marks. Today there was a choice of a chicken, salmon, chicken breasts (in a sauce, I thnk), pork medallions, chicken pie or cheese pie. Then you pick a accompliment from, roasted veg, mash pot, stuffing, or green veg. A pudding from, chocloate tart, lemon souffle, choc bread pudding.. forgotton the rest! And a bottle of wine! It's a pretty good deal and some of the things would do more than 2 people, pies, were 3-4 portions & the chicken would obviously feed more.

    Good you are getting the repairs done at last. Hopefully you will be able to settle better soon.

    Take care,

    A x

    Wow, I have sent my OH to go and have a look whilst he is out feeding the cat (not a Corrie storyline:D), hope the vultures haven't stripped M&S!

    Haha! Newest poem for you all to see...and it's relatively happy. Well, I say happy....at least it's not depressing. :o

    Imperfect Beauty
    "You're beautiful", he said
    Watching her vigorously brush
    Her tatty flaxen hair
    "But I'm not", she replied
    "Have you seen the way
    My skin shines?
    People could use it as a mirror!
    And how about the way
    My hair never goes the way I want it to
    No matter how much I straighten it
    Or layer it with those styling products
    That claim to work, but really don't?
    And how about this little bit of fat
    Right here?
    This little bit that always seems to want
    To spill out over the top of my jeans
    No matter how loose they are.
    And let's not forget
    My legs!
    Yes, these two stumpy things!
    Is Santa recruiting any more elves this year?
    I think I would be the perfect employee!
    And oh my god, have you seen my hands?
    They're tiny!
    Am I a woman, or a baby in disguise?
    I just can't bloody tell!
    My teeth!
    They're a sort of off-white colour
    And far from straight!
    And I thought braces were supposed to fix this sort of thing!
    I guess my orthodontist was having a few off years
    When he did mine!
    My eyes aren't a river of blue
    Especially hiding behind these
    Slightly thick rimmed glasses
    That make my forehead look slightly elongated
    And do nothing for my eyes!
    My darling, I am not perfect
    I am as far from perfection
    As you could get
    Much like as far from a whale, as is a mouse
    Why are you looking at me like that, my dear, like I'm crazy?"
    "Oh, my sweet darling", he says so softly
    "You are imperfect in your imperfections
    And that, to me, makes you the most beautiful creation of all"

    :hello: Everyone,

    woke early today as my computer shone a green light and bugged me and kept me awake.

    :hello: Kati welcome to the thread,my name is Katie :)

    anyway better go back to bed or I will suffer for it later and be overtired.I had a powercut last night but it was back on at 7.30pm,dont know what caused it to fail though but at least I got my electricity back,thank goodness for mobile phones though,I certainly needed mine last night so rang parents on it to say I had no electricity.

    *hugs* to those that need one


    love and light,

    Hi guys!hello.gif
    Morning all - how's you doing?angel-smiley-002.gif
    We've been having wonderful Hammer House of Horror weather here in sunny Warwickshire!speechless-smiley-040.gif You watch though, it'll be blue skies and sunshine for Halloween and then there'll be thousands of ankle-biters banging on our doors.sSc_scared3.gifrolleyes.gif
    I also hope that we are all prepared for the 6 months of fireworks that started last week, which will now continue until the 2nd week in January!waiting.gif
    I'd like to start the day by sending a warm sSig_welcome5.gif to elmostreet (kati). Thank you for being brave enough to make your first post hunnie - you are more than welcome here and I'm sure you'll find all the support you need here, angel. sLo_hug2.gif We're going to have to be careful guys, not to confuse our katie (katie-tulip) with our kati.wink.gif
    I've got so much to do and what I really want to do is post away with replies here. Yes, this heralds a warning of the onset of half-term for those with Tifflets at school, and reading week (???!!!), for those whose Tifflets are at Uni. That's right - DS is coming home for a week tomorrow! So my week will be going like this:
    sport-smiley-001.gif ... sLo_hug2.gif... unsure.gif ... clean.gif... washing.gif ... person-smiley-1110.gif... dishes.gif ... iron.gif ... person-smiley-9822.gif ...not-tagged-smiley-10586.gif ...1.gif!!!
    And he'd better bring his reading books with him - reading week indeed!rolleyes.gif
    I'll be all right - I've got the tablets!sSc_scarednervous.gifbiggrin.gif

    Wrap up warm guys and safe journeys to all. Be kind to yourself.sLo_hug2.gif
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx
