    Hmmm, I'd best log off here and log onto my laptop as it's now 10:52 and I haven't done ANY work whatsoever!!!

    But yes, I'll be going for them very soon! And then to Asda to stock up on buckets, bleach, marigolds and ALOT of cleaning products!! Charlotte thought we were joking when we said she'd get given a bucket and some bleach later! :rotfl:

    Bad girl, I'm gonna tell over you!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Linda - Wot no fish today?

    Afraid not, I missed him this week, It's Wednesday when he comes round and I had to go into work to prepare for a whole teaching day that I was leading yesterday.
    It had been dropped on me at the last minute AND... the woman who's course it is phoned me and said "*insert dizzy giggle* - I printed off all the lesson plans and handouts but they're in my car at the airport!!!!!" :mad::mad::mad:
    So we had a few hundred handouts, assessment sheets etc to print and collate.
    I should have been in York on Wednesday, I wasn't going to go in at all to be honest because I felt really ill but there was no-one else to do it and it would have meant me looking like a complete idiot at the course yesterday.
    *RANT OVER*

    Sammy,
    I would do as Sal said to do, brown meat with onions and go get HOT curry podwer and use that, stick in slowcooker with a few cans of toms and whatever other bits you want in! I did it a bit ago and it came out lush.
