    TAG - you're setting a very bad example!

    Mudbath - I can't have a dog as I'm not at home enough (I think the RSPCA might have something to say about it) so can I be Poppy's godmother please?? That way I can have all the (virtual) benefits without any of the responsibility ;)

    I've worked out what I'm wearing to work tomorrow, and have got everything sorted out so that if I'm up at 7 (so an hour later than I have to do on Wednesdays) I should be able to fit in a quick swim, which would better than nothing. Then I'll just have to decide whether to go to yoga after work, or come back and get myself sorted out for my wed pm guests...

    I've got back to back meetings all day tomorrow (don't they realise that I do actually have to get from one to the other, and just occasionally need to pee?? :rotfl: ) so don't think i'll have any time for sneaky checks on the thread.

    Hope everyone has a succesful day.

    :jDS2s starting Beavers tomorrow, decided now DP doesn't have to run the stupid club he can go, we've had to stop him because both of us needed to be there. Spoke to a volunteer who said can start him there rather than throwing him at the deep end with cubs (with noone he knows) when his social skills aren't great.

    Pack ups DONE! So that's my MACAWs stuck to this week :D Just watching the programme I recorded of the return of the 'Secret Millionaire' when they go back to see where they are now. Making me tearful and grateful.

    Grrrrrrr just realised the dogs have eaten Sonic's food, sods!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    greenbee, as a strange suggestion, have you considered in your spare time (if you have any spare time) of dog walking or sitting for a local rescue? I have friends who get a whole boat load of enjoyment from this. Tell me to get stuffed if you like :D You can find oodles of rescues either via the yellow pages or on sites like www.dogpages.org.uk where they have lists.

    I'm about shattered now but can't resist watching the rest of this even if it's recorded. NN toochoosey...

    Nite toochoosey
  • Mudbath - she's lovely

    Stirling - OH worked near there for a year, I loved all my time up there in the Trossachs, shame I can't persuade him to go on holiday there again

    Tag - am I mixing you up with someone else or is your DB in the army and about to go off on a tour?

    Was still working at 4am, been at a client's this morning, course this afternoon and another client tonight so no flying - will catch up tomorrow. Maybe would have finished work earlier this morning if hadn't read the whole of the Mooncup site (had been wondering about these for a while but not sure about the dishwasher) and various threads on here, too easily distracted and tonight's distraction was i-measure (you again Greenbee :rolleyes: )
    Don't put it down, put it away - thanks Valli

    Thank you to all who post competitions & help the smooth running of the comps board
