Managed to stay away - only coz I was out like.
Went to home bargains for brown paper bags but mine doesn't have them in...got dd a paint your own watering can (clay kind) it comes in a nice box that if you take it our carefully you can put it back in and give it as a gift. So that's her grandma's mothers day present half sorted.
Only done about 2 things on my list, but I've drank a huge bottle of blast energy drink so I'm going to zoom off and do it all. Be on later.
OO - hb also had paint your own egg kits with pottery eggs and paints in - for 79p.0 -

Ye gods! Someone has answered my prayers!! After a long and boring story about the dentist (:eek:) which I absolutely won't bore you with, I basically went in expecting to be told I needed AT LEAST 3 fillings and a root canal/molar extraction after the abscess fiasco last week.
Came out ..........2 fillings thats it! NOTHING ELSE! :T:T:T:T:T:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j
I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy! I am absolutely dreading the fillings :eek: but no root canal :T no molar extraction:T just 30 little minutes of terror !!:T:T:T:T:T<<<

Blimey Jamtart you got off lightly then!!!
I have had abcesses galore all under one tooth ... I got to the point where they had to remove the nerves in that tooth so I could supposedly not feel a thing (yeah right that bloomin hurts!!) then suprise suprise it comes back another 8 or 9 times since they did that ... then when I moved up here I changed dentists and go to see him cause I am in absolute agony for 3 weeks with an abcess, he gives me antibiotics which didn't work (I had a lovely lump in the roof of my mouth and couldn't eat for 5 days!) and then it popped eek ... I went back and he had to do a root canal filling I sat there crying before I had even got in his chair (my son had to have a filling and he wasn't even scared nor did it hurt!) and then he got started on me ... no pain relief and 30 minutes later I have a nice tooth with no hole in the back and since then touch wood no abcess has come back! ...Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -
Just popping in to say hello to everyone.
I've had a lovely day, spent at my friends. we had a lovely lunch and then went a big looooooooooong walk with dogs and 6 kids between us!
I managed to lose the lens cap for new camera so hope I can get a replacement one.

Awwwww, wish I could meet you girls at the NEC, shall have to look at the budget, check my moms free to babysit & face my public transport fear:eek: .
I think I'd be ok to get to birmingham, its from there I might turn into a jibbering wreck, lol. I've travelled to birmingham new street quite a few times & its a straight journey, but changing trains by myself to go to the NEC....I know, its silly, I'm a grown woman, I just panic I'll get on the wrong one & end up god knows where, or get off at the wrong place, or somehow get lost, I have no idea where this fear has stemmed from, tis mental. Bit of forward planning & I will cope, ok, talked myself into it now, I'm a stubborn thing & once I've got something in my head thats it, lol. Sooooo, anyone else gonna meet this crazy lady, PLM & possibly Chocolate orange?You cant take a step forward with both feet on the ground0 -
I am not crazy!! I just talk too much LOL
What day would you like to Meet Choccy? You do realise I am going to call you chocolate Orange when we meet LOL!! This is SOOO exciting. I am like a mad woman shopping so we will have to bargain hunt together!!
Sylphy, Catch a train to Tipton (I think you have to make a quick change at wolvo though) And i'll pick you up to come with me OR you could get the train to BHam and meet Choccy Orange and then catch the train to the NEC together?
