    No flying done today yet. Today is my birthday so we ate at Nandos after work. I have spend the evening so far chatting on the phone. I plan to do some flying before bed but will mainly catch up with friends I haven't chatted to in a while. Today only 2 students played April fools tricks on me, would have been more if they knew.

    Hello, just got back from a friend's where we were studying the Bible together. Had a great time, really wonderful Scriptures about Jesus' ransom sacrifice.

    Hugs Freedom, sorry to hear parent's evening was so awful. Do you want to talk about it? Hope your walk helps.

    Hi Phil, glad your parent's evening went well. Sorry you not heard from the Union, sure it will be soon.

    DH has gone out, will return anytime between 9 and 10 and wants me to record the Apprentice so he can watch the end of the footie. Now I have a dilemna (sp?) do I start watching it and switch to the dreaded footie when he comes in or watch it alll at once on the video? Think I will just start watching it!

    Am busy decluttering eclairs (the sweets kind not the cream cake kind).

    Dusty – well done sorting out the house. You’ve worked so hard at that…hope you’re going to give yourself some dusty time now! Hugs to you.

    Freedom – hope your littlie is ok and that your DS has survived you finding out he’s not gone to lectures. Monkeys aren’t they (that’s being polite!!).

    AnW’smum – bet you can’t wait to go away next week. We’re booked from this Saturday to Friday and then on another site with friends over the easter weekend. I can’t wait!!

    Sexymouse – sorry you didn’t get the job…. a better one is round the corner! The supply work will be handy and hopefully will count as more experience.

    Funfairprincess – hugs to you and your OH, hope the results bring good news.

    Kaz - hope you're ok!

    DD passed her piano exam, i've cut the grass, i've done three loads of washing and want to do another load now. Then hopefully an earlyish night!

    Hugs to you all xx

    Hi everyone

    Things really calmed down at work this week - today worked at home and managed to go to allotment afterwards. I haven't been for ages and was expecting tropical jungle but found only mild wilderness. Found some old leeks not exactly succulent but edible.

    Flying wise - very little. Put on some washing and just about to s&s kitchen, DW.

    DH decorating dining room - painting IKEA bookcases to make them look built in - look promising but will take a few days to complete.

    HUGS all round - esp FFP, hope your OH OK.

    Yippee! I can now post....

    If anyone else is reading who hasn't be able to post, I've finally given in and deleted all my cookies & temporary files and it seems to have fixed the problem.

    Lots of catching up to do now!

    Not much flying done today as cleared a bit of the garden slowly and planted some bulbs that I should have done weeks ago. At least most of them are in now!

    Will fly tomorrow hopefully and catch up a bit as can manage the bedroom and bathroom fairly quickly thankfully!

    Hugs to those who need them personally, emotionally and job wise
