Ok ladies and gentlemen... today is my manic flying day... we're going away for the weekend to Wales tomorrow, so there's sooo much to do! Any inspirational advice would be much appreciated, as will any cheering along!

I've been up since seven this morning getting washing on etc so I'm hoping I can get it all done.

Happy Birthday Neveah
Congrats on the interview Jo

Sat here snivelling because I have dropped my iphone in the loo. It is now switched off and in a bowl of dry rice for a few days to dry out. No insurance cover on it, and only 3 months into contract so thats that if it doesn't work, will have to get a cheap PAYG urgently so I can shift the sim. Being uncontactable when you are a self employed consultant is a really bad thing.

I can sit here feeling sorry for myself yet again or I can get on with something useful. Where did I hide the biscuits?

Hugs Julie

Zoe hope your appointment goes well today

Hugs Jo, hope you are feeling better soon

Mrs Moneyspinner do you live near Thorpe Park? We live near Guildford which is just down the road from there. Hope you have a good time there

Hugs Jinky and MSG, hope the funerals you are going to go as well as possible. I’m off to one tomorrow in Bournemouth, to my Dad’s Auntie’s funeral. I’ve only ever met her once that I can remember, but am going to support Dad and Grandad. Apparently Grandad is going to be very upset when he sees his BIL as he’s very ill with cancer and Grandad hasn’t seen him lately. It’s Grandma’s brother’s wife that’s died but Grandad is close to them.

FFP, hope Piper gets better soon. Hope it goes well today with the nurse

Hello Lisa, welcome to the thread

Blimus so sorry to hear about your sister’s flat, how horrible the mortgage companies are, they have no thought about at all about people’s grief

Quillion sorry to hear about your friend’s mum

Well, Dad and Grandad are coming to pick me up tomorrow and I'd better get some tidying up done in case Grandad needs the loo.


HHC anyone? 10:55-11:25

Just me then? Off I go....

Just a short one to say sorry I wasn't around yesterday much, I was spending time with a poorly lodger cat. We've got another appointment at the vets in about an hours time, I am convinced it is his mouth so hopefully they can give us a course of antibiotics and this will sort him out. He has eaten a wee bit of tuna, so while I am out I am going to get him some kitten food to get him back to eating again.. I wouldn't mind but he isn't even my cat..although it looks like he will end up being mine anyway. But I am a soft touch and I treat him as though he is mine..I just hope DH doesn't mind too much when he realises he is the one that is paying for his treatment..lol.

Will be back flying later on.. Oooh I did fly yesterday I totally cleaned all the levels in the bathroom and toilet, so when that comes around I can tick it all off and get a star..woohoo!!

*Hugs* to all the poorlies, poorly animals and extra hugs to anyone that wants them.
