Evening!
Just caught up after getting back from Scotland - the weather was absolutely fantastic - which makes a change - were even sitting outside.

had a fantastic time at Malmaison (once we found it will never ask BIL for directions ever again :rotfl:) I may have had a little (ok far) too much to drink and had to be put to bed so missed the meal (much to OH's amusement) It wasn't my fault there was a whisky tasting in with the stay - really didn't want my breakfast the next morning but managed the roast that SIL and OH cooked later that afternoon

Glad you liked the bags Rusty

Morning!

Look at me up this early! I start my CAB training today :j I'm a bit nervous but that's okay, i'll be fine once I get there. I'm not nervous about the training, I just have a habit of being the person nobody talks to at these things, probably my fault because i'm quite shy but i'm determined to be my normal chatty self today so I don't get ignored!

Anyways best get a move on, hope you all have a nice day

Best of luck Hayley, you'll enjoy it once you're there

We had much better weather yesterday so could get outside and get some fresh air and muck around in the garden.

I did my mountain of ironing last night, yay, over for another week :j

Boys' tummies (or rather their bums ) are still not good so taking them to the GP this morning. Bet they'll say I'm wasting time. DS1 is supposed to be going to football training for the next 3 days but won't be able to go if this bug stays with him. He's shattered. I've tried NHS Direct and the Pharmacist and they weren't much help really.

Have a good day everyone

Well Done Hayley - you beat me today! I hope the day goes well.

Rainmac - Hope you get on OK at the docs & the boys are soon much better. Glad you had some sun yesterday, it wasn't as good up here but still sunny. I found washing to do & had pegged it out (mostly towels) and had just put my padded jacket in the washer when my stupid b****y neighbours over the back lit a bonfire!:mad::mad::mad: I was so mad I couldn't do anything. (I must learn to keep calm)

Paddongtondoo - glad you had a good time - I've often fancied staying at a Malmaison is it really really posh?

Mel - Thank you for your kind words & the cat pictures.

OH is on the ball though

DS goes to his dads today til sat so not looking forward to that but whilst he is away I plan to finish sorting his bedroom out.
We went to an easter party yesterday and came home with 6 more eggs and loads of little eggs which were won by the kids :eek: I feel overwhelmed by all of the chocky there is that much! I think I will take a picture of it all and make a scrapbook page!

Hope you all have a lovely day

Morning everyone am back working from home this week phew!

Rusty - all I can suggest is step away from the nappy cake thread - what exactly are they threatening? I can't even see the bit that you have supposedly copied.

I know you can register .co.uk as well as .com and .net etc etc and end up with different companies - like this

Stay here where we are nice and fluffy and cuddly :rotfl:
