    pigpen - wow, I'm terrifically proud of you too! I couldn't do that, I'm pathetic at dealing with aggression. I don't think your DS needs to see the Ed Psych for one isolated incident.

    Pretty pleased that I got all this done after lunch, in another HHC, before zipping round the supermarket for bread, milk and new washing up gloves and then picking up the children from school. Been doodling around here for too long, off to make lasagne for dinner.

    hi all,

    Only had a very quick flick through the last pag eof the thread, still raging with family for the state the house was in when I returned on Sunday night, did nowt yesterday as made them declutter and sort out their own laundry, so today since being in from work i have tidied and scrubed the kitchen need to iron tonight, and still have the kitchen floor to clean but that can happen after tea.

    whats the score with the quidco xmas thingy (sorry havent reached that far back hear and noticed something on the quidlcan thread)
  • :T Pigpen - way to go! :T Good for you and well done! Didn't I say straight away that he had been provoked? DD was once treated similarly by a girl at her Junior school. I spoke to the Head, who did zilch, coz he was usually to busy looking for the next bottle. I was following DD into school one day and heard this girl starting again, so told her to can it. The next day her mother accosted me in the playground, so I suggested we took it to the head and she thumped me in the chest on the way through the door. The head was afraid of her so did nothing, and for years I wished I had charged he with assault. Needn't have worried. DD was out in the town we had moved to one evening years later and this girl started on her again (she had also moved). She threw the first punch, saw DD floored her, breaking her nose! What goes around comes around!:rotfl:The Police were called and charged the other one with something, like drunken affray (DD was breathalised but clear!) :T

    I have a shopping trolley, it's called Hopper as that's the make :D Hopper is fab for the boat as I put all the food, drinks, toys etc in there so a child can wheel it in :)

    Been trying to sort the washing out which is getting there. Just made fish which I boiled in milk, cous cous and frozen veg for tea...been told it's yummy which is a first!

    Pigpen - not sore now, it was 5 years ago but you should see the size of my keyhole - it had been grumbling for about 30 years! (Except that they don't do that, do they?) Disguised by gynae probs. I was in on a drip during the February for 3 days, sent home with it dismissed as gynae, back in on the May Bank Holiday weekend, kept on a drip for 3 days before they operated, home 3 days later, then rushed back on a blue light with a post op infection and spent another 5 days on a drip! I really know how to live it up! :D

    Oh right.. obviously my reading skill shave gone to pot I thought it said THIS weekend just gone..

    I got out of unpacking when we moved into our last house.. we mvoed in on the Monday and I had DD2 6 weeks early so got a 9 days stay in hospital.. when I got home I had furniture and carpet and beds!!
