And huge hugs for you to stop fretting (Easier said than done I know) huge hugs for your Mum also to be calm and the biggest hug of all for your dad that he comes through his op with flying colours. *succesful op and healing*vibes for him on their way.

    Rach from what I have seen on the thread and through our pm's I would employ you!!!! well done getting it finished - is there a closing date - do you think you will have long to wait for your interview and when will you be starting your new job?
    *calm and absorbing* vibes for your DH as he works towards his exams - a very stressful time for you both - what about planning something nice for afterwards so he has something to look forward tp.

    Have you started building a bunker then?:rotfl:

    It was really good - def recommended :D I'd not seen it before and really didn't know much about it. I do love the theatre though!

    Not sure mum will be bothered - they don't speak!! - it's just me sorting it all hence why I'm fretting! Thanks for the vibes though :A

    Not sure where I could put a bunker - maybe I should move further inland :confused: :rotfl:

    I've washed up and have started sorting through my school bag.

    Oh and can anyone use some Spelling Lists workbooks? I have one of each for ages 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 (National Curriculum ages). They are old but unused. Let me know if you want one or more ..........

    So would I :T

    Bedroom is now clean and habitable, so I am going to slope off for a nice badedas bath. Did you get your run too Sunnygirl?

    Yes...can honestly say I wouldn't have gone had you not replied earlier...so thank you because it was a good run and I did 3.65 miles.:j It wasn't easy but I kept on going and got as far as I wanted.

    Don't think I'll bother with the ironing as its a bit late now but the plan is to put the dishwasher on, load the WM and collapse into bed shortly after.

    Night all. x

    Emily - you're doing really well - hope you have a lovely day in Wales tomorrow.
    Frodders - re the Portsmouth thing - if you need access to a bunker NN still has her sunken (10 feet below ground!) air raid shelter from WW2 in her garden. There's a rockery garden on top which will act as nice camouflage. I'm sure we could find room for you if you could zip it up the M27! Alternatively, we could have a dig in at your place.... :D I just think it's daft putting all your eggs in one harbour basket - though it'll be good for the local economy...

    Off to bed now. We have interesting weather this evening. It's a very balmy wind which is very gusty. And warm. Reminds me of stormy/tornado weather.

    Sleep well everyone
