g&b great news, I hate mine being broken now I have one
only thing I dislike about holidays is having to wash up again! Good luck with the exams, housework can wait honey but maybe try doing 15 minutes or so each day just to keep a little on top of it, it does help as mines not half as bad as it got this time last year with studying (and I'm keeping up with studying better too)
soappie sorry to hear you have had to deal with all of that, especially when you're trying to get away on holiday. I think there have been a few offers, I can update them if needs be but think someone who would be around more might be a better choice.
Right, I've now answered enough correctly to pass the eCMA due ingood thing about these as even if it's a pain the way you need to answer it so precisely you get instant correct/incorrect. One was bad as I got 'all your selections are incorrect' so anyway that just left the 3 correct ones, I'd completely read the question wrong
So I know now it's passed, if I get time and want to battle the last 2 bits I have missed I can but don't need to, phew, one done! Got a rotten headache starting again, possible as coughing so violently. Think I will get the dog sorted, kids off to bed and see if I can get some sleep.
One day I might be more organised...........

My dishwasher was fixed today:jI'm so pleased:D Only read the last 2 pages, hope everyone else is doing ok.
My DW is being fixed tomorrow.. I have almost every pot and pan in the house needing to in the darn thing so they bloody well better have the part.. esp as i told them it is either the timer or the pump jamming!
As for the docs.. I shall repeat this for one final time then I want you to all leave off... I do NOT need to go.. I have been and there is nothing else to go for so it would be a waste of mine and their time so you may as well all shut up nattering at me right now.. plus it is now shut until Monday.. last time I had a water infection I was ill for 3 weeks had 4 lots of AB's until one actually worked and that was without the kidney issues as well. I know what the cause is.. it won't be happening again so all should be ok.
the test results should be back monday.. which means possibly Thursday for my GP so more will be known then if these are the right AB's or not.. in the meantime I've doubled the dosage..
