    Pap - are you still doing the CD? It should be something you mention to your guide (what ever they're called).....:confused:

    I'm wondering if a 3rd glass of wine would be in order....

    just as long as you realise you are living in false hopes if you think you are going to be lie-in-mom or whatever it was! they might not need you to run them to school but I'll bet they'll still be asking the usual "where's my..." questions each day:D!

    Don't bother with NHS Direct at the moment, they are only dealing with swine flu until the other helpline is set up :rolleyes: Bit useless really, other health problems do exist

    Before that they were Meningitis Direct, so still not all that useful...
