    Toots - hope everything goes okay for you!

    Everyone can have a massive hug as well as I'm cold and need warming up :p:rotfl::rotfl: (off to wash the dishes in a minute to warm up my hands :rotfl: ).

    I'm getting there with my work, just a 900 word essay to go :D"discussing the statement 'there is no such thing as a risk-free investment' with reference to investment planning for long-term financial goals" :eek: (Could I just say, here and now I HATE the "Passive voice" grammar rule with a passion :mad: ) I want to submit the whole lot tomorrow, so I can spend Friday running errands and cleaning house to give my brain a break as its starting to suffer from information overload. Then I'll start reading stuff again on Monday and taking better notes as the ECA looks very very scary :o

    Right, toilet, dishes and I think I might just hit the next teacher in my placement who sings the virtues of having a dishwasher :rotfl::rotfl: Then I'll work on this essay (already started a plan today at lunch ;) ) for 30min and then go to bed. :wave:

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Thought I had missed a trick there Toots
    Hope everything goes well for you - you will be in our thoughts (and for those with a more uplifted soul than mine no doubt - in prayers). I'm more into karma ideas - so I know you'll be just fine.
    Hope you are back soon - we will miss you.
    Love and hugs - and don't tug the canulas (ouch!) Valli XXXX
