    :rotfl::rotfl:Positive affirmations and all that Beanie! Must say now I'm at home I'm not half as bothered as I was at work. If I get it in the neck (although you never really do it's more whispering in corners) it's saving someone else...;)

    Have just been down beach with DS - big fabby waves that soak you on the prom.. mucho fun - and he's now settled down in front of the footie.

    Things are good El, you've got to count your blessings and ignore those that don't matter! (my "t" isn't working too well so not sure if I'm quicker retyping or trying to think of alternative words without "t" in them...)
