    i've just recevied the Body Shop vanity case - it's a fabric one, it's not worth £35 but the £7.50 is ok to pay for it. The products are small but i'll add more stuff and give as presents.

    Got mine yesterday Scaredy, thought exactly the same thing

    Like your new avvie :D

    Did you see this on the BBC website about cat's purr's ?

    Hope I don't sound mean, I have just dropped DD and DS in law off at the hospital...I was there four hours the other day and not even somewhere for me to sit. I have had to come home and earn some money........I am only 10 mins down the dual carriageway and have to pick up other DD's 2 and 3 shortly.

    Guarantor is sorted - boyfriends mother is doing it for them......thank the lord...was getting quite stressed about it..

    You don't sound mean at all Sammy, although I know you'd like to be there, you can't do everything, like you said you're only 10 mins drive away when they come out.

    Are you ok today ? You seem a lot calmer, I assume that's because OH has gone back to work (& to stay at his mum's) - you did say that earlier didn't you ???

    Yes he has gone, hence the calmer me....

    Colleague at work suggested something good, which was if I can't get him to admit he has a problem and get a solution for it then I should research as much as I can and develop coping skills.....a plan methinks...
