HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Are you missing me yet? Hahahaha
Hope you are all well, we got back Thursday but been extremely busy doing stuff at new house like the lawn etc, picking carpets (managing to get the full house done for under a grand, instead of the 1300 initially quoted for the same carpet, result!) doing packing here, sorting more packing as we're back away from in the morning etc etc. I managed to get on FB with my phone while we were away which is free but ended up maxing my limit on internet browsing
so not been able to pop in. I did fly regularly at the Lakes, it rained more than it was sunny unfortunately but still had a good time.
Studying going sort of ok, 2 assignments due soon but taking stuff away with me for them. We're going to a site which looks wonderful, sauna/steam rooms/pool/leisure club etc included so looking forward to it http://www.holgates.co.uk/middlebarrow/facilities . I best go find the swimming stuff actually so will disappear off for now. I am unsure if my mobile BB will work where we are going, online check says no, so if not TTFN and will pop back in 13 days
(((hugs to all))) x x x x x x x x x
Hi Hun
I'd noticed you were missing but guessed you were away in caravan but had NO idea you were on the move again. How did that come about? Certainly dont envy you. xxMortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!0 -

Oh, we think Jacob and mummy are coming down with SF.. great.. germs in my house with my daughter with a dodgy chest as it is! DS1 had it 1.5 weeks ago apparently.. so ~~ cold vibes ~~ for them

Unfortunately :rolleyes: OH is working tomorrow and wont be able to take me that far out to meet y'all
and Im not kiddie-free until monday PM this week and then im not OH-free!! If I did bring the kids (:eek:) id have to get their dad to have the wee 'un and it might be a bit far for my DD as she is a brittle asthmatic 
Im normally free Sunday PM 1.30 until 5pm (at latest) if you'd like to offer again another time.. its just the transport that Id struggle with as OH works during these hours! But something a little closer to home I might be able to blag a bit of his time. Believe it or not he's a taxi driver and moans if I ask for a lift "because he could be earning instead of giving me free lifts everywhere" so he says:rotfl:
I'm sure I can find some walks round your way, but I'm not sure that Froddy and sexymouse would trek all the way up here... If we're all meeting up again somewhere in the middle I can always give you a lift (if you're nice to me
). Until then, you'll just have to make do with your wine for company!Penelope_Penguin wrote: »Maybe I've been drinking more than I thought

Mrs B - Whitchurch or Longparish might be good for a Sunday walk sometime if you can persuade your OH to drop you off and pick you up!
I think I'd better go to bed and tackle things properly in the morning. I need to do some flying before the house and garden get out of control, as I can't concentrate properly on paperwork etc. when it's messy.
I'll see those of you who aren't hungover in the morning

Pigpen, never rains your way does it, sending positive lots of stuff inc healthy vibes!
Kaz I sort of mentioned it before, we got an offer from the local authority of a house where we have been on the list for about 8 years it must be now, half the price of here, it's smaller but so much cheaper (ctax, water etc cheaper too) I'm still not convinced it's the right move, not 100% as I like this house, the village etc but the savings and the security of a local authority tenancy rather than private. We can also make it more our own, we haven't even put a picture up here in 2 years as I don't think it's ever felt like home.
Anyway yes I am back, just put a chicken and a pork loin joint in the oven for an easy tea for tomorrow (using elec at home instead of gas in caravan, cheaper) then it'll be left overs for sandwiches. Yes it's late but I plan staying up very late, getting up about 8am to start on getting ready to go as we need to do loads. Caravan needs a bubble bath, inside sorting, filling with stuff, need to go to the pet shop/farm shop etc then set off.....hopefully an early night tomorrow on site, little sleep night before helps me sleep better first night. Shower now I think while the tumble drier finishes with the caravan bedding in.....see if I can find the rest of the swimming stuff while I get dried.
Toodles xxOne day I might be more organised...........
