Hi KC

Thanx for the good wishes :kisses3: no prob!

One day soon I will wake up (as i do every year) on that "special spring day" in either March or early April and say ...at last that's it for another carp winter - time to come out of hibernation and start joining the real world again

Hopefully you are feeling better and starting to approach your own "spring day" ? :grouphug::grouphug: This is my first ever Friday after turning my London work into a fortnightly commitment rather than a weekly commitment, and I feel *fantastic* about it! I feel like I'm on holiday!

And oh boy lady - wot larks we will have then!!! :money::money:For a start, we will have a shed load of shrubs to replace in my garden as the snow wiped a lot of them out...so a few garden centre trips might be in order .....as long as they have a sale on :rotfl:;)

Ooh, that sounds great - I'm deffo up for that

Hugs Hun - will see you soon

And to you . Seeing the posting times of you and Angie overnight, I'm a bit concerned for you both, actually - I like the mornings, but I'm also bad at getting to bed at night (it was 1am yesterday, I confess) but 4.30 is a bit too much.

Lots of hugs....

Good morning Wol, it's wet and miserable today but not in MSE land! Onwards and upwards!

That course sounds really interesting, if you need more piggies to practice on you can borrow my girlies

Wol, if you are feeling a bit strange, it is probably because you have accidentally been deleted from my thread subscription list. That's what comes of faffing about accessing the Internet on an Ipod, I must have pressed something by accident. Ah well, that's me, the last of the technophobes.

That course sounds just right for you and so exciting.I'm sure you're really going to enjoy it.

To quote Betty from the BT ads "if you've got an ology it means that you're a scientist" - now I didnt know that there was an ology in rodents:eek: Z - you owe me some screen cleaner because I spit globbets of sticky jammy cake onto the screen after I read your comments about Wol's mum:eek:

Its been a manic week this week so still havent sorted out the towels as promised. Decided against doing transcribing for the woman, I could see that life was going to be difficult so I cut my losses. Have had some free coaching via skype on how to do a 40 second presentation without sounding like an incompetent buffoon. I had a brilliant idea on Wednesday about something for my 40seconds and something that I could use to promote the business (will take some of these things to GC in March)..pity that one firm decided that I didnt need 100 so quoted me for more plus they got my name wrong:mad: Anyway I have a great deal from someone else, so I am paying just over £100 instead of £400:eek: I have found a way of attracting clients too, I am putting half a day of my time into an auction and will do a bloomin good job and get referrals:D

Have a busy week next week - spring fair Monday, 4N big breakfast Tuesday (with the bosses of 4N so we have to be on our best behaviour:eek:) and then need to spend time trying to be MSE and fix my suitcase as there is a massive crack by one of the wheels and I am too mean to buy another new one (this one bought in Spain last year and used once)...some fibreglass gloop should do the trick.

She'll be looking for an uncle Numpty grinny pig sitter:D
while Wol goes on the course :cool::T:T:T

I have spoken at length (almost 2 hours :eek:) to family member today after they were discharged, They are very upbeat :T although apparently it looks like they may have to go back in for a more extensive second op (owing to being flat chested and therefore there being no "margin" available apparently :rotfl:). They will know the results in two weeks as to prognosis - looks like I;d better practice yoga and forget about painting my toenails.

As you are probably all aware (Ahem Yes KC - it was rather late ) I was up most of the night and finally got their call at lunchtime today. I now feel completely emotionally and physically rung out, my whole body is shaking and I'm continuously on the verge of tears.

I have however managed to instigate a complaint today against the Ombudsman :rotfl::p:rotfl:.because they have had my case for 6 months now with absolutely no progress and the adjudcator won;t return my calls:mad:. Spent half an hour on the phone to the casework team today discussing what I should do and will now be sending letters drafted today to various people by recorded delivery asking for my case to be priortised owing to emotional and financial distress.

I'm just off to feed the piggies
And then I am going to bed....

Thank you everyone :beer::beer:...I am extremely touched by your continuing care and concern

Nite all

Sounds like you've hit the wall, Wol - I'm glad to see your light out, I'm off to bed soon as well.

Take care of yourself.

Happy to borrow your girls LT - of course you need to be aware that once I (and the boys ) have seen your gorgeous guineas..........we might not feel able to return them to their rightful owner :cool::p:rotfl:
