    Serena - What a nasty bully - how good you had the lads with you! But, what sort of driver is he who's relying on his sensors? He should be using his senses - particularly his eyes and his mirrors as well!
    Boddy - hope your headache goes quickly

    Forgot to mention earlier I could do with renewed and strong funding vibes for the new financial year please. I'm on a project plan, there just needs to be the confirmation of some budget to be allocated for it!

    I have failed miserably on the living room. Got diverted by the fridge and the kitchen. I have made some bread, emptied and restocked the DW, have the chicken bones boiling up (stock almost ready), put one load of washing away, one load on the airer and another in the machine. I've prepped one lot of stew for tomorrow night and put two uncooked bags of venison (that I got from the butcher on Saturday) in the freezer.

    From my personal list this morning, I've done half - the important half!

    Hey ho - could try harder as they said in my old school reports.

    My excuse is that I'm a bit distracted at the moment. I'm having a really deep think about my life and I know things need to change. I've just got to work out what to change and how to change them!

    Hey ho, must be that big old full moon that looked spectacular just on the horizon as I drove into work...

  • Evenin all! Since my last post I have been to sleep, woke up, had a conversation with DH, cried buckets, and my headache has come back. I don't think I'm going to be able to do anything today. I'm sorry. I will try to do some tomorrow, then we are going to stay at Mum's - they come back on Sunday, and we want to make the most of being able to stay at their place. Will be able to have a really good rest on Thurs/Fri so I'm looking forward to that. Hopefully when I get back I will be feeling a bit better.

  • Sympathy needed. My day just got tons better - NOT! Had a prang last week (surprise surprise) anyway it was my fault - no argument. Contacted the insurance company today, (Guy I bumped into only contacted me today - very nice chap, no problems,) Anyway contacted insurance company, no probs there. Assessor from repair company came round, says that even though the damage is not that bad (smashed headlight, bumper) thinks it could be writted off due to age of car (thought this might happen, probably only get about £700) Trying not to panic but do need car (we have no real bus service to speak of also with ME and 2 ASD kids I NEED my car) .... Deep breath ...... and breath.

    Serena big hugs for you. You know what they say about men with big cars.........over compensating for being deficient in other areas:rotfl:Anyway, glad your safe and sound, but very scary:eek: glad you were'nt alone.

    Right of to do my MACAW - long soak in bath, cleanse tone and moisturise. TTFN
    The problem with common sense is its not very common:rotfl:
