Just seen an advert on telly which is a fab advert but Mr G would be freaked as he's phobic of buttons. In the first bit hundreds of buttons grow into button flowers :rolleyes: Good job he's not watching it!

I've heard of this phobia quite often. I wonder what makes people scared of buttons? A childhood trauma associated with them or something?

Reya...thanks for that. The Jersey Met Office says that we're averaging 4 degrees today, that site says we're 1 degree, feeling like -5 degrees! Although I don't think it's quite that cold outside.

Waving to fellow Donkey................ I've not ventured outside though so can't comment on the -5. Sadly I'm about to find out.

Morning all

DS3 still got earache so been to the GPs this morning. Had to get past the dragon at the desk first - they have changed morning casual to emergency surgery - maybe tell us then! She said they'd been telling people since Novemember - well I went twice in december and nobody told me. Also answerphone is out of date as I tried to phone this morning to the new open at 8 appointment line and it was still on answerphone to call back after 9! Anyhow GP prescribed drops - which pharacy haven't got and asked me what 70x15 was for the script for ABs to keep hold of.

Pink - the story with Nan is very confused, her breathing is better but her general condidtion has not changed and they are not even investigating that according to Mum who visited yesterday so I'm going up again this afternoon (with DS3 in tow now) to see what I can achieve in getting a doctor to reassess her, actually think I'll see if I can find a phone number and ring them in a minute.

Vanilla I'm happy the scan went well and another boy will be lovely (I've got 3) if a bit muddy and noisey!

Need to do:
Dalies
kitchen rescue
have shower
finish living room
do hall downstaris toilet
get DS3 script
visit Nan
ring dentist
ring swimming lessons
email football coach
email cricket coach
buy a calendar
make cottage pie
check work timetable for next week

Jill - my hubbie is off to the states on Saturday for 2 weeks work - which part is yours off too? Funny if they are on the same flight.

My cable comes directly from the wall?!?!!? I was thinking that the router would just plug into the modem I've already got but I did but the ASDL one and not a CABLE one!!! I am a technophobe!!! Anyway have had a look at PC world site and not as badly priced as I thought so will trundle up there when DD has finished preschool!! Right now I'm going to start on my TMA!!!!
