  • Hello Love,

    many vibes and love

    (and good luck with that list! )

    Thanks guys xx

    Good idea about the TV Zed, not sure if he is up to watching it yet as he cant focus on things for long without feeling sick but I shall see how he is tonight.

    I really should get dressed:rolleyes:

    ..........maybe after my 3rd cuppa:D

    3rd load of washing is whirring away and towels and jeans are blowing on the line in the sunshine.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    • clean bathrooms
    • meal plan for week
    • placed £10 matched bet
    • clean bedrooms

    Tonight we have the DVD Angels and Demons to watch but not sure what time I will get back home from the hospital, might leave DVD till tomorrow night.

    Not sure what to take in for Brother? I have a card but he cant read at the moment so mags are no good and not sure about flowers for a bloke (he is a very blokey bloke too) he is unable to eat at the moment too. Any ideas anyone?:confused:
    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhem :naughty::naughty:

    Get those boys and men of yours to help you:cool:


    Glad to hear your bro is *ok* :kisses2::kisses2::kisses2::kisses2::kisses2::kisses2:

    Well the mobiles are for both boys contracts each £15 and £20 respectively, I am happy to pay this so I know they are safe when they are out and I can contact them:o

    My and OH mobile bill is PAYG and about £5 for 4 months:rotfl:

    I think the clothing budget can go for a few months as we all have plenty of winter clothes from last year......so long as the boys dont grow much again.

    OH takes £1.50 a day for coffee and takes a packed lunch, they arent allowed to have a kettle:rolleyes: so he has to use the machines, he is having 6 cups a day at 25p which I do agree is alot.

    Vacuum flask? You can get a massive quality Thermos branded one from Wilko's for under £8, will pay for itself in a week.

    I hate companies that try to make money off their employees this way. If you can't make enough profit from your actual customers without squeezing your staff with rules to make extra pocket change, you shouldn't be in business.
  • Lou,
    Glad to hear the surgery went well-loads of positives thoughts to you and your family.
