    Hi Guys

    I am once again overwhelmed by your support. Although i have only been posting here a few weeks i feel like part of a big family. :D
    I got more choked reading your kind words than i did when i was made redundant and i have worked there for 18 years.

    Thats amazing and so reflects what you have said, I thought you'd been here for years :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Bad luck about work, but hoping it's an opening for something better. You are being very calm and pragmatic:T :T :T :T :T :T :T :T

    Hi Emily - How are you? You're doing really well on your lists - much better than me this week! Just think, if you hoover the bedroom floor quickly, you'll get a star.

    Which is more than I'm likely to get this week :o

    Evening everyone :hello: Hope you have all had a good day. Just thought I would drop in, before I grab something to eat. I have just finished Thursday's list - :jall done, although it seemed to take me ages today; kept getting distracted with one thing and another! I went to the shops earlier, to get some bits for my daughter's birthday party. I found and bought a jar of hibiscus flowers in a thick syrup (the colour of red wine). I did not know that hibiscus flowers were edible. Anyway you drop one into a glass of champage, and the bubbles cause the hibiscus to open. It also turns the champagne a pink colour. Apparently the actual flower has a raspberry/rhubarb flavour. The jar was quite expensive but it looks so pretty. I though it might go down well with all the Mummys....something a bit different! At least it fits in wth the pink theme!! I am going to be all "pinked out" by the time we have the party! x

    Thanks Froddington, Im still coming to Southampton though - Im really looking forward to it. So is tinytot. He is looking forward to seeing Beffy Boo Soappie, so i hope thats ok with you and the doggy. Big hugs to you for the last few days.

    And thanks to everyone else for your kind messages. Quillion, i totally agree with your comment about only having been involved for a few weeks but already being part of a big family. Like the others, I really hope your redundancy brings new opportunities you never thought possible.

    mudbath - i love your post about loading the dishwasher. I often read the thread and want to jump in with hugs or laughs, but often cant as i havent done any flying. I need to remember that in future..... :rotfl:

    I have done all of my flying, so does that mean I can post???

    Im sure there are other people i wanted to mention and things i wanted to say, but ive forgot!! We all do that, dont we? Except toots!! Thats why we love her so!!! :D

    I have done another load of washing - :D
    :)Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying:)

    Okay....I'm cross eyed but all caught up with the thread now! Huge hugs to all those who need one, it's been quite a week...

    An especial Hi to toots!!

    I've worked all week, which is great for finances, but not too good for flying. I'm shattered. I have however, accidentally done the main bedroom.

    Tomorrow I'll do half a day flying, then shopping - only just over a week till holiday!! Can't wait...
