    Still he itched in places i never did ( evil cackle:D):rotfl::rotfl:

    LOL - in places you don't even HAVE, perhaps?! I was fortunate in that I escaped any spots in personal locations - I did however have them on the edges of both eyelids, which was excrutiating! I have a small gap in my upper lashes over my left eye as a trophy from that one!

    Glad the job is still going well.

    Hows mr debtbusting bob going bob? Good to hear work going ok..must be odd being f/t and hard to fit it all in isnt it!!

    It is ISOM, even though i have built in prep time, i am driving around that much i am pooped at the end of it. Glad it is a bit cooler now, not as wearying.:o Some of the children are challenging as in behaviour and others are challenging in that they are extremely intelligent so am working at both ends of the educational spectrum. I even remembered back 30 years to The Tempest:eek:crumbs i don't know where i dragged that one from, but was a really enjoyable lesson.:rotfl::rotfl:

    Debt busting wise, my £20 M&S vouchers came, another two lots to come yet:T:D Very quick service that was. I changed a few things around to jiggle the finances until dosh comes in and looking forward to having a bit more to play with.

    Got it in one;) I have a couple of scars on my face from the chicken pox and one open pore:confused:Which is highly annoying.

    Hope children are feeling better Shaun.

    KC saw your video the other day, what a good idea. Meant to post then my internet explorer froze and i lost patience with it.
    Hope you all have a good weekend, enjoy yourself ISOM.x

    Hello Bob!
    Not been on here since saying that I thoughtthe tide wa about to turn jobwise for you..............sounds like it may have done:j

    I hope your brood are all doing well.....Mr Bob OK after his op still?

    I do hope that Shaun had a 'pox party'.....we did when we were kids........bring 'em all round and make sure that they all catch it young.

    Have decided that Northumbrian Coast ( Lindisfarne ) is fantastic for holidays.

    Hey up Pepe, nice to see you about. I too love the Northumberland coast, did you manage any walking?

    Mr.B is on probation at the moment, he had another snoring op which was not successful, but i have a sinus problem at the moment so may be getting my own back re the snoring:cool::D:rotfl: Do i care? Nope:D:D:D:rotfl:

    He is getting better on the finance front though and as ever is lolling along in his usual oblivious manner..although he does have a look of the meerkat about him if i mention Crapital one:rotfl::rotfl: I only do it for a bit of fun...evil old BOB.:cool:

    Am going to update my spreadsheet at weekend as lots have gone out and i haven't put figures in for a while.:o So may be some good news on totals and then i can update my snowball...rubs hands with glee in scrooge like manner.

    That's where i tend to live in reality:o:rotfl: My life works so well in my head, i am successful, live in an eco house and am self sufficient, write books for a living and travel all over doing research for said books:o Sniffle, oh and Pierce Brosnan gets a look in every now and then with the odd Johnny Depp visit too:D:rotfl:

    Goes back into dream world imagining them all stripped down and digging :drool:

    at least you are having nice dreams... last night I dreamt I was going out with Rhys (or Reece) from Hollyoaks (yes, I do realise I'm old enough to be his mother) and he had a rat (looked like a tiny mouse) that kept attacking me and either biting or scratching!:eek::eek: not a nice dream and I was so relieved when I woke up. not sure what that was about...:o:o:o
