    This thread is affecting me while I sleep now. I dreamt I was in the Chinese takeaway and they spilt the food on the carpet and I told them to get some Stardrops. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Will fly later as Im off to get a bit of shopping I forgot yesterday. The cat wont be happy if he has nothing to eat.

    Then off to see mum. Got my meeting and greeting to do this afternoon.

    I hoovered all the living room yesterday so at least that is done.

    Been back to the gym today and I fel better for it. Havent been for 3 weeks. Now Ive stopped eating carp I feel much better.

    Foddy Glad your head is supportive.

    Teedy23 Welcome.

    Pink Fairy Ive seen Mama Mia and its brillant. Im going to buy the DVD too.

    Money Saving Diva You are not wasting anyones time. It doesnt matter how big or small your list is.

    TAG I love ironing too I find it relaxing. Was in a stationery shop yesterday but managed to restrain myself.

    Hugs everyone:grouphug:
