    Thanks, I hate feeling like im always bringing doom and gloom to the thread.

    I returned my Dad's phone call but it felt like an ordeal. I've said I will stay in touch but its unlikely I hardly know him and the conversation was stilted and awkward.

    Sorry to hear your still in pain MM

    I was worried Candice that other people may have been pretending it wasn't happening. Im such a control freak, I had to get back control and sort it all out. Kids will be staying with my mum when im back in.

    I found out yesterday that my MIL told my 8 year old that the 14YO should never have phoned and told me about his drinking, what sort of messages is she giving her. I feel really cross about it. Apparently she called her a cheeky biatch.

    Only she is an old woman I would be telling her what for, but if I mention it to her, she will cry and I have enough madness going on right now without her dramatics.

    I would just explain to the 8YO that the 14YO did exactly the right thing and that you would rather nobody kept secrets from you... And Nana is an old bag ;)

    me spag bol is on!!

    Got strawberry and raspberry ripple ice-cream. OH rang and said can you pick up some ice-cream for me?!! DOH of course dear :D

    Mrs Moc - you're having a right time of it. Agree Nana is an old bag - your lucky your 14YO is sensible enough to realise there is a problem!

    Wow - been feeling some really hefty kicks today!
