    Evening ladies

    Been having real problems getting kids to settle down of a night at the moment.

    Serena - hugs for you and your DS. Mine who is the same age would find dealing with that hard, you have my sympathy re kids not behaving, DS is always moaning about how rude other kids are to teachers and I made a complaint to the deputy head just this week.

    Soappie I'm glad you've made a decision about work

    Boddy that was thoughtful of you to get the most challenging client ready for the day shift

    AnW'Mum is W fully fit now?

    Embb hope OH is ok after his extractions
