    I'm sorry to hear about your holiday BB, what a shame.:(

    I have a bottle of beer and about a glass of wine in the fridge and I don't know if I will resist.:rolleyes: I am being so useless this month, it's been the worst of the year so far.

    Hope everyone else is okay.:A It looks like it's about to pour with rain here.

  • Budgie - So sorry to hear about your holiday :eek:

    I personally would be speaking to a solicitor and taking action against the hotel!


    We've missed you if it's any consolation ;)


    I am being naughty, have got a couple of cans of Guiness for tonight.

    Best wishes

    Hi Guys,

    I just wanted to say thankyou for your messages, they have made me feel a little better :A

    Hugs to you all, thankyou for the song 40sm, I cannot tell you how pleased I was to see good old Stoke. Though we have got home and the alarm is !!!!!!ed. I mean its one thing after another.

    But I guess my signature says it all:
    travel back on the road that takes you home.

    The hotel has not rang me back yet but they have said though only verbally that Rentokil have confirmed bed bugs. If you google them they are gross.

    My reaction has been severe though Mr BB has been bitten but not to my extent or as well he has has not had an allergic reaction.

    But it is horrific and if you guys could see the state I am in well you would be mortified.

    I will also be having a drink tonight which means I won't make my target for this month but I shall bounce back in July. You can count on it ;)

    Mr BB is not impressed as I am throwing away !!!! loads of stuff, but if you read on the net you have to be so careful not to transport them home :eek: Hey if it can't be washed its gone.

    So hugs my very dear friends, to Fay sorry you have been through the mill sweetheart and Budgie send you a big hug ((())). To my darling Jo thankyou as ever for caring, you are a little star and you always, always make me smile :A Bhb thanks for the advice matey. Dear Lurky glad to see my big brother is always on hand, hugs matey. Orchid, 115k, Maman, Nettie and Fluffy thankyou for your support sweeties. So everyone lots of love, I am glad to be back.

    Ps need to catch up with the posts but I hope you are all ok? Fedup hope things are looking brighter for you sweetheart?

    To the new one or ones? Good luck and take care. xxxxxxxxxxx

    I've missed you all and:
    I AM SO GLAD TO BE BACK :D
    You really do have no idea, whilst I was away I have been worrying about everyone, esp Jo and Fay and of course 40sm as she has not been tickety boo. Oh and Fedup oh and all of you :D You get the idea?

    Budgie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Cherish the ones you love and travel back on the road that brings you home :)

  • BudgetBabe - you are such a caring person - you gave me a lump in the throat then. After all that you have been through this last week you are still worrying about other people. :A:A:A:A:A:A

    I have been worrying about everyone, esp Jo

    I've not been doing so great, in fact the day you walked out of the door it went pear shaped :o but I'm in good spirits, espesh after the fantastic summer fair we had at school, tons of people turned out, nobody wanted to leave at the end, there were still queues at the BBQ, bouncy castles, face paints and the ice creams :D I'm physically totally exhausted, never carried so many tables in my life, was the floater today so worked on the gate, various stalls, all 5 of the bouncy castles (which is a bad job to have :eek:) and even the first aider. Exhausted is not a word for it, legs and arms are like jelly and I need to sleep.

    The weather was totally glorious all day, we finished putting everything back and tidying away and was in a group congratuating everyone on their efforts when there was the biggest strike of lightning, then immediately a downpour of 1/2 inch big hail stones which made the entire playground and field white!! Talk about lucky and blessed to have such a great day with great weather, no one would believe the thunder storm that we've had for the last couple of hours when we were sitting out in the sun eating burgers and ice creams :rotfl:

    Gotta wake DD2 up (she's exhausted from all the bouncies, they got an extra couple of hours on them as they were with me setting up this morning!) and get her and DS into the bath to wash off the face paint. DS was spiderman, but now looks like he's taken part in a blood bath massacre!!

    Hope everyone's well this evening?
