But it is very inspirational and tells me it CAN be done!

Hi Pigpen

It can be done - I passed my BSc (Hons) in OT just over 2 years ago - did a 3 year course in 2 years so tough going but now qualified....... I also moved house twice and manage two teenagers (one doing GSCE's) on my own whilst studying.

(I wonder if I managed that why am I not coping now???)

Sorry havent managed to catch up here apart from seeing that greenbee is going round the country just to reach perth!!

Back from cricket and a bit weary but I do like to watch it, I'll be sad when the season is over, especially as it will be back to football which I don't enjoy.

Google sends me to Toots by walking to Ramsgate, getting the ferry to Ostend, walking to Zeebrugge, getting the ferry to Rosyth and walking the rest of the way! Time of 3 days and 5 hours! Alternatively, I could get the coach via London and make it in approx 12 hours

Right, I need a list for tomorrow and my bed!

Just think how fit you'd be after that 3 day walk though! I think it's probably sending us on the same route, so I'd keep you company

Exactly... so soappie would need a boat as well as a car...

Boats and amphibious stuff I can do. Just don't ask me to go up in the air....

Soappie No one seemed to know what had happened to mums leg. I know she bruises very easily but it was rather a large area. She has a review tomorrow and DD will be asking questions.

I hope DD asks the right questions and it doesn't happen again!

NewbyMSG - you're doing well - don't knock yourself! Remember, baby steps

Dusty - hope your sore throats settle down soon. And poor Tom, couldn't you think of anything nicer to partner him with? Turnips? Honestly!

Hollyh - thanks for the update, glad you managed to not to cry on your last day and that you don't have SF. Hugs.

Pen-pen et al. Re the walking route. I wonder if Google tries to work on the fact you could get a ferry to various places which would reduce the walking time... Glad you had a good time at the show.

Greenbee, re the sponsored walk to Toots - I reconfirm my offer to be the support vehicle

Valli - I am crossing everything in anticipation of your interview tomorrow. May the Force be with you love.

Spent most of the evening on the phone so missed half of WDYTYA. Never mind, I'll catch up on the repeats.

Oh, and DS just walked through and told me we're all going to die. He works at a school. Seems there's a confirmed case of SF at the complex next door and two pupils and on teacher at his place are off as suspected. Hey ho - as long as I can do my sister's hen night and her wedding and do SHUNT. I'm resigned...
