    :o Thanks Maz, not sure about stylish but I do like my scarves, I've got loads. My fave of the ones I got last weekend was a cream one with little green apples on it! :D

    Mind you, someone told me one I had on the other day made me look a bit like an air hostess... :rotfl:


    i hope you replied, "exactly the look i was going for!"

    I get in a right mess with scarves. I've got a floaty raspberrt and blue one as part of my 'posh' formal uniform. Was trying to serve a buffet the other night - what a sticky mess! :rotfl:

    Its nice to know Snags that the school have rung to tell you when Ryan HAS been good, rather than just telling you when he has been naughty

    yep, i meant to say something about that too... (i got carried away with the scarf topic...)

    well done the school for letting you know. I'm impressed!

    not with Ryan, cause we know he's a star, but with the school...

    credit where it's due....


    I'd like to do kooky... but it would look too much like a midlife crisis if i started now!

    Hahaha, thanks - Ryan has already questioned why I'm not eating - I didn't know what to say really. :o He doesn't miss anything that kid.

    I'll try the chicken bite things, Ryan loves them though so I will have to fight him for them!

    Talking of my little monkey, I've just had a phonecall from school to say he's had a superb morning, his behaviour has been fantastic and he's finished all his work. :):):)

    Ooh I missed that, brilliant - well done Ryan! :T

    I love those chicken bite things too.. mmmm.

    that really just made me laugh out loud...

    And I am apologizing now if I ever miss anything/anyone out on the daily chat thread but I very often read backwards and then answer the first post that catches my eye...by the time I have caught up I've forgotten to respond to things...
