Sorry it's taken me so long to get back on to answer you. For some reason the application form that I'd been emailed had been formatted very strangely, and was refusing to print half of the pages. So I ended up painstakingly copying and pasting it all into a new word document, and have re-saved it, so won't have to do it all next time. All printed out now - just need to hand-write a covering letter (apparently the governers are a bit old-fashioned and think that computer-generated applications are inpersonal :rolleyes:, so the head told us to hand-write the covering letter).
Good luck with the studying toochoosey.
Think I'm going to head out to Sainsbugs now to pick up a couple of bits and pieces for dinner, just in case I get called for work this avo and don't have time before the gym.
Nice to see you popping in again xxJoxx and thanks for arranging the flower delivery to toots.

Hiya again!
Michelle - you'll have already seen the doctor when you read this but I hope it went well. Remember we're all here for you to chat to! Do what's right for you! Massive hugs!
Thanks to everyone for the tootles updates. I really miss her being part of the board as she's got such a way with words and her humour is fabulous. I can't wait for her to be back with us dealing out stars and shouting (or is that only to me???!:rotfl:)
Massive thanks Jo for sorting some flowers.
Dogs walked and house s/s. Time to look at the list!
Hugs to you all xx0 -

Morning everyone
I can't believe the difference in weather here. It's breezy, a grey sky and a bit of a nip in the air. And my little man on the weather thingy has his brolly, I think he is saying it is going to rain in the next 24 hours..:eek:
Well I've been up since 5.30am, am showered and dressed. I even stripped my bed and put the clean bedding on it. Unfortunately I layed down and fell asleep for a good 2 hours..ooops!!
Eeeks be right back, just got to rescue my hard boiled eggs before they dry..lol
Just taken delivery of my new kettle, oooh it's posh!! Just waiting for RM to deliver the filter jug. I'm beginning to wonder why I paid for guarantee delivery before 1pm today, when the damn thing probably won't turn up until 12.55pm. I've already seen the Parcel Force guy drive down the road today and he didn't stop at my house.. Hope he comes back.. Although I'll probably be cursing later on though as I went for a fancy all bells water filter, it tells you when you need to change the filter by the hardness of your water, how often you fill up etc.. DH said last night why didn't I just go for a normal filter jug..errr cos it wouldn't be me if I did that..lol
Have to go to a councelling session late this afternoon, which I am not really looking forward to. But I know I have to have these sessions otherwise I won't be able to move forward with my life.
Extra special hugs to L.L and Michelle, also good luck at the Dr's Michelle, you will be fine honey.
AnW'sMum can you give my love to Toots next time you speak to her..and tell her I am sending lots of positive vibes her way so she is back with us very soon.
Am going to do a HHI x 2 session, and hopefully make some more clearway in my ironing mountain. Good news though the washing pile is just a little ant hill now :rotfl:
