    Rach a very brief summary
    Pigpen's stressed - hugs needed - choccys/wine/ice cream etc has been prescribed for her and for some people who have the October? (winter is coming?) blues. Get up and go got up and went.
    Matched pegs seem to be compulsory! lol
    Mudbath is accident prone - but Soappie has a cunning plan
    The thread got so long because Greenbee had a 'work at home' day...
    Toochwhat about some lightbulbs -morris0ns have energy saving ones normally 39p each bargain at 5 for 50p!

    How'dya do that? It took me all day to keep up and you sum it up in 2 secs? :confused: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I could have been doing some work... (Naaaah :D )

    Pigpen, how's it going? Hope your OK...

    Polka you should write it down or better still print your post off and file in a book of memories of his childhood.

    I have been going through some of the PM's I have recd and copying them to word docs so A & W can see how many people cared and thought about us in some of our darkest times.

    And how exactly do you reckon that eh missy?? Nothing can be worse than this place I kid you not.

    Focus on the things you have done and not what you haven't done. I constantly feel overwhelmed by it all but I try not to let it worry me any more. Things have to be done one step at a time. You will get there and things will improve, stick with it we are all here to help and support each other ;)

    That is such a stunning idea! I think I'll start doing that:) I could use some of it in the christmas albums that go to South Africa too.

    You are clever:A
