    Hello everyone, I have not been in here for ages, and I know its silly but I felt a little scared about popping in today, some days have not been on at all, and sometimes have only been popping into the comps forum for a few hours over the weekends trying to win stuff for a raffle (my DD is running the marathon this year for the charity that I work for) sorry I haven’t popped in to say hello. I haven’t won anything for a while, nothing this month and a CD last month. Work has been so busy I have been doing really long hours, the charity provides support for women/children that have experienced abuse, not sure if anyone remembers I said back end of last year that we were having a review at work and if we didn’t pass we would lose funding, we got the decision on Wednesday that our funding is secure until 2011, so that is a relief and I can start to relax a bit. Sorry I have gone on a bit :o I hope everybody is well,
    Happy Birthday to all that I have missed :beer:

    I wondered where u had been xxx

    Hope u r ok and glad to see u back xxxxxx (((((hugs))))) xxxxx

    It's hailing here. It's got such force it's bouncing off the ground a foot or so in the air! Rubbish weather!!

    Hi Kimmy :)
    Life is all about the journey.

    :mad: aww, that's horrible nicky, i used to always plant flowers & bulbs round my dad's but had the same problem , breaks your heart :sad: why people do these things i don't understand, there's always empty beer cans & spliff ends all over the place whenever i go visit, once had a word with the council who own the land, but that was a waste of time :sad: big hugs for you & your family friends-067.gif as toomanykids says , they'll get theirs :mad:

    well, better get stuck in some comps, had family visiting this morning & haven't had a chance to sneak in here & get some done :D catch u all later xx
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    hope you are ok kimmy :D no snow or hail here but it'd freeze the b@lls off a brass monkey alright! talking of which Nicky! your poor OH! can imagine him trying to scratch without anyone noticing, poor lamb :o We've all had it except the youngest two, I was expecting DD2 when it last did the rounds in here. Everytime I look at her she's broke out in a fresh crop :rolleyes: And I had to go look it up didn't I to find out why it was called chicken pox and apparently it was a highly respected doctor who commented many moons ago that it was like the "chicken" or spineless version of small pox hence the name. I didn't know that!
    OK washing in, bets on :D (I have only two bets: one accumulator of 6 horses/football with some outsiders and one treble horses).

    Btw, did everyone receive their mouse toy? I haven't yet and hope it is not lost on the way to its new home :(

    oops best nip off to do the super soccer 6, thank nnw forgot all about it and yep wee Eek arrived well over a week ago hun, hope yours arrives soon :)

    Hi all!
    Was having a lovely quiet day, too quiet as I just discovered DD2 has been chopping off her hair. She has now got no fringe at all and tufts missing everywhere! OH has had to rush her down the hairdressers and the only one that could fit her in is soooo expensive. Poor thing, she is very girlie and was so upset, all I could do was lol-047.gif, which made her cry even more. Bless, what would we do without kids!.
