    Rach no, luckily as there is so much involved with my Dad etc he didn't ask for other details lol, he rarely looks at it anyway, thankfully, as some of exs comments he's made could have been taken the wrong way. I deleted some of them as soon as they were on the second page too. Oh and very big well done!!!

    soappie I like high places too even if I get scared......

    Mudbath I do the same giving things as presents I am given especially vouchers and smellies, it seems terrible giving gifts away but if it's something I won't/can't use I would rather someone else had it and I saved on gifts. I always make a note when I get smellies sets for example I will have reactions to of who gave me them so they don't go back to the same family :o


    Tempted to sort the jacuzzi bath out, it needs cleaning through before it can be used as it's not been done for ages but it's blowing a gale outside and could do with some self indulgence time!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    dinner was yummy (porkchops filled with cheese, rice and carrots/mushrooms in sauce)

    and it was time again to cut all my lovelies hair!
    ds and oh are easy - just a nr. 16 and job done.
    i don't like doing dd - it's more a scissors job - but i am not willing to spend £14 for a 3yr hair cut :mad:

    so, all cut - showered and kids are in bed! :j

    Ta hun, yes we had a great time except for disney which was tosh, really fed up and disappointed especially the amount of money we spent on tickets.

    The disney parks were too packed, dangerously so, there was no chance to get on any rides unless you wanted to queue for hours, up to 5 hours for the most popular rides.:mad:

    But the rest was brilliant, would go again but not to disney, don't think I'll spend my money with them again, I'd go for the other parks.

    I've also developed a complete terror of flying which is not good. Spent both flights sitting in terror trying not to go into full blown panic. This is after taking tamezepam and rescue remedy. Cried a lot, had sweaty palms a lot and was really frightened.:o


    But overall we had a great time.:D

    Valli/soappie both those houses look great :) Ashover is a nice place as well as Matlock. I work not too far from Ashover but in terms of inhabitants they are poles apart :rotfl:

    Matlock always looks like a great place to kill a few hours - always wanted to stop there on the bike, but not a huge fan of 'biker' places and now I am too fat for my leathers and his beloved VFR has not been driven since I was pregnant with DS1. If I had to pick somewhere it would be Tissington, just for the sheer fun of taking the landrover through the ford every day. We are walking and off for sunday lunch tomorrow which I am looking forward to.

    WM has just stopped so need to get TD on and sprt boys stuff for the morning, not a lot achieved today and I never did get the pc to work again which is a pain.

    Lil me, hugs for you. Hope you sorted the jacuzzi out - sounds good to me.

    That's me Triker - the minute I even KNOW I'm going to step on a plane, three days of panicking before hand, medicinal brandies at 6am and paper bags to hand to help reduce the hyperventilation. As well as tears from the minute I arrive at the airport. Makes a mockery of 'going on holiday'. Which is why I don't get in an airplane anymore. The stress is just not worth it. I now holiday in places which are accessible by car, train or boat!

    Disneyland sounds dire! Can you get your money back for the tickets?
