So, if people are ok with it, we are looking at pubs more in the countryside but within a few minutes walk of a train station, where we can sit in or out depending on the weather, go for a nice walk in the country, have a drink and get food if we want to, and people can arrive / leave as they need to.
Does this sound ok?

This sounds fine to me.

School isn't one I've taught at before Toots, but it is only down the road from the last school I taught in for my NQT terms, so a similar catchment and similar challenges in terms of behaviour and English as an additional language difficulties. It's the school I went to visit last week (?) so I don't think you were about when I posted about it. The head is really down-to-earth, and all of the staff go out socially quite a lot, so quite different in that respect to my last job.

3tabbycats you could try looking up people you know by name in the search facility, and if they're listed you can add them as a friend?

The email thing works like this.... you give facebook temporary access to your email address book, it scans through your email contacts to match up people on facebook. If there are any matches, it asks you if you'd like to add any of them as friends. At that point you can decide if you'd like to add them or not.

Thanks SarahShattered, will have a play around on there later & see if I can suss it out!
Off back to the kitchen now to finish the bread rolls for next weeks lunches & find some dinner.. Then thats it for the day apart from finding myself a nice bottle of cider!

No more flying for me, but my dad has been and bought a new door for my washing machine and it works a treat! He also flatly refused to accept my money for it :j

He's coming round before we go out for dinner to fix my wonky cupboard door too

I love my dad :happylove

Gordons time!

Then I'm off to prep a brace of pheasant for dinner - I'm braising them slowly in all sorts of yummy things.

Evening everyone.

Have managed to catch up with you all. Im aching today after a bit of an incident at work yesterday.

Nearly spilt my tea laughing at the talk of `pies`.

Gale force winds here today. I nearly took off when I went shopping.

Been to see mum and she was fine. Gave her a hug as I always do.

Then went to see DD and she got hugs too.

Master W I am sure that's actually what you're supposed to do at 'swimming lessons' I am sure when you are bigger and have to go with school it'll be good to already know how to swim.
Dusty honey well done, it's such a hard job to do, extremely emotionally draining. Pleased to hear your OH is being a good help.
Emily, big hugs for both of you
kassey :rotfl: sounds like someone knows what 'that look' means
LL you should be getting him to do his washing, tut, aren't you supposed to not drive for 3 months post op?
SM well done, keeping whatever possible crossed for you
Pigpen, wow that is quite a distance. Sometimes there is cheap train/coach deals to be had so maybe. I am sure 3 months will fly over, I know it has this year, doesn't seem like 5 minutes since Xmas.

Well I made some progress today, including cleaning out the utility fridge which had developed an almighty pong. I realised it's not been done for a little while. Anyway it's all nice smelling now, some old bottles of medicine emptied and in recycling. Did some shopping while DP had the boys, I didn't buy anything I don't need as such, did notice how much some things had gone up with me focusing a bit more, crazy since about Ocotber time passatta 27p-44p, tinned tomatoes 19p-33p, sweetcorn (tinned) 19p-37p no wonder people are struggling. A spag bol used to be one of my cheap meals but not now. Decided against trying to battle against the wind/hail to empty the caravan stuff out of my car. I might try to get that done tomorrow seeing as the weather seems to be cheering up.

Don't forget clocks change tomorrow!!!!! Actually I just realised, we don't have a clock downstairs, there is one electric alarm clock in my room which hasn't been plugged in for weeks, rely on phones/PC/laptop/Sky tele

Oh and the whole weekend thing, cuddles/hugs, at present DS1 I've been nice to and now he's trying to smash everything, kicking, punching horrid little thing so might put this weekends flying list on hold until the little brat bag calms down (I only asked him to tidy his room back up that I've already cleared this week!He has literally tipped boxes full of stuff upside down) DS2 of course behaving better when his brother is naughty anyway he's my snuggly one. I've offered story in my room for if DS1 does his room, they usually like this (all pile into my bed and read stories until sleep time) but DS1 being the terror he is has been told he can just go straight to bed if he doesn't finish his room. DPs gone to work, he's been more pleasant today, think he knows I have a busy week ahead and not to test my patience too much.

Tonights plans
