    Morning everyone

    Not sure what my plans are for the day. ExOH1 is in the area - came down with his caravan yesterday so I'll meet up with him either today or tomorrow. Trouble is, we keep missing each other. He has no phone signal where he is and I don't always have my mobile with me....

    I decided I am hiding in bed all day today lol.. I cannot cope with more drama this weekend!!!

    I was hoping to trudge my way through the downstairs at least but I don't think I dare move in case something else of high drama occurs.

    I have about 4 months of the list to catch up on!!
