Evening! I did the bathroom floor, then went and wandered round the shops for a couple of hours!! Only HHI to do then today's list will be complete

funfairprincess - is it only me who doesn't know some of the words in your posts

lil_me - great news

SS - hugs! What a pain to have no water!
mummyof5 - well done to you and Megan:T

pigpen - can't believe you didn't tell us (mind you, I didn't tell anyone when I had mine; or my driving test .....!)BTW, I won't say anything

nicki - where are you going to have it and do you have any others? I really want another .........

soappie - I'm sure you're right. I think it was finding out the details about my Grandfather's death, and seeing the pictures of him looking so much like my brother that got me thinking (too much, as usual :rolleyes: )

The thing that really set me off with my Great Uncle was a one liner about him on a sort of UK Japanese PoW website which put up some records which have survived from the camps.

All it said was

<abc xyz> - a fine piano player.

One wonders how they got to know that and was that really all he was remembered for?

But, dinner is cooking so I need to go stir things...

lil-me-agree with you about the crying but it was the hysteria that she attached too it "mummy crying mummy sad". We haven't yet explained to them what is happening. I think we have decided to do it together for the children. DD won't really understand as she is only 3, but as she will be confused by it.
Normally if I cry I tell her mummy is sad and will be alright in a little while but today was a little difficulties I didn't want DS asking me why. I don't want to lie to him.



Anyway great news re the caravan. Hope you enjoy your first trip this year.

Soappie and Froddington - have tried to find records for my grandfather, but its proving diffficult (very complicated story). Its on my list of things to do in the summer. You are very lucky to be able to find out about your relatives!

Rach - my hand is much better, I asked the pharmacist to look at it while I was getting some valerrian(spelling?) and she said rest the hand and keep putting lavender oil on it. Thanks for asking

Decluttered a jacket potato with tuna and a couple of sausages for my dinner (using up stuff in the fridge so having odd meals).

I'm emotionally exhausted Hugs to anyone who needs them xxx

well have cleaned the ensuite bathroom - just the floor left which I will do at the weekend. have washed the bathmats - they have been washed more since I joined this thread than they have in all the time we have had them!
may do the main bathroom tomorrow.
came into the study, looked at the mess & decided to check my emails & this thread instead.
off to have a glass of wine that DH is pouring for me & read my harry potter book - getting a bit close to a problem though as DS is only half way through book 5 & I'm about 3/4 way through book 4 so I'm going to have a bit of a wait before I can start that one..
