    Taxi, Hypno had the right idea - do something with the adrenaline caused by all the worry - something energetic that will tire you out in a good way, like vigourous walking or scrubbing.

    I'll be on and off mse all day, as I'm desperate to have a home day, so hope to see you here...

    Am going back to work tomorrow as there won't be as much time sitting about thinking whilst waiting for a job.Sat and sun day can see me with plenty of thinking time whilst working..I know this as this is where I solve/think through problems..lol

    Hi taxi, I only just read your news - that must be very worrying, it will feel like a long wait til Monday 17th but hope you can keep optimistic and not stress too much. I agree with Shaun - no point reading the internet when you don't know what it is as you will only get scared reading about the worst case scenarios. Hope work goes well and keeps you busy meanwhile.

    Thanks ..haven't been to work for a couple of days.
    Went for a drive today to pick up a part but the place wasn't open.It said it was open 10am-4pm on it's internet site.
    I popped into a farm shop whilst I was down there and had a mooch around..it had some lovely stuff in but I was good and only bought potatoes.

    Farm shops are nice to look around in - there was a local farmer selling stuff at the garden centre I went to with my sister, that was nice to have a look at.

    Hey Taxi,

    I have to disappear for the rest of the week (long, last-minute story of business not pleasure), but I will be back early next week. Take care of yourself and let us know how all the tests go etc.

    Squidgy hugs and vinegary kisses,
