    Used my make important phone call to ebay. I bought stuff from a seller and they are now giving me total abuse. I asked for the cert. of posting as the stuff arrived damaged (badly packaged) and they have jsut be horrid esp. the husband. I'm quite upset after the last email I would share with OH but I'm still not talking to him.

    How are you doing them? Roast? Braised? Don't forget to save the leftovers....:rotfl:

    One was hit over the head with a large club and spit roasted. The others were allowed to go home because they behaved to my liking. I don't know why children ask to come and play here because i'm mean!!!

    Dishwasher loaded, off to get washing in off line and then going out in ten minutes. I want my bed! xx

    Holly - huge hugs to you and your sister been in both of your situations so know what you are going through, please feel free to get in touch if you wish.

    Apart from dailies no flying done here, was working this morning and studying this afternoon.

    Any OU student out there I am thinking about doing course EA300 but having not done any english/literature courses before wondered what you thought.

    Also finally given up with our digital phones and stuck one in the freezer last night (did read on here that it worked for batteries just not sure if it does for phones) has anyone else done this and if so how long do I let it defrost before I try to charge it back up?

    Is that the childrens lit course? The one with Harry Potter if so there is a big thread in the Harry Potter forum on first class about it. To be fair I have read the book list for that course and I can't see it being easy. If you have done another level 3 you might be alright it all depends what your study before has been. I study Social sciences and I can't see myself making the jump from the type/style of writting that is asked of me there to the childrens lit very easily but everyone is different. PM me if you want to chat more.


    Started clearing my room there and managed to fill a bin bag of crap. I just need to talk Piper into getting rid of 1 bike, 1 pram and 2 rocking horses and I may be able to get to bed without tripping up! 00020325.gif everyone see you all in the morning.
