    Also glad that you're getting the right help from the docs.. you can't help your genes, but being aware and keeping on top of things is really important.

    It's a shame about your mum.. maybe she finds it hard to deal with something being wrong with her daughter, and finds it easier to go on and talk about something/ someone else instead?

    Hope you have a good day :)

    Thanks Squizz! You're right about my mum, its got to be something like that. She doesn't know much about being a mother, thats for sure - she was a 2nd child, but her mum was still only 19, and a bit scatty - plus she stayed at a relative's for six months, because she was ill, and they were so poor, and then she was evacuated at 13, and never lived at home regularly again. If I saw that set of events in a client, I'd say they probably have *at least* a mild attachment disorder - I just have to remember that. She understands a lot more than she ever did, but she has no clue about the emotions of it all. Hey ho.

    Right. To work. Two more emails, then I shut down the comp. Byeee!

    That is interesting, rtandon, thanks! I think I'm definitely going to go that route - after all, this loo that I'm going to have installed, I think I'm going to put those taps on it that you can just push and pull, or use your elbows on?

    Help, just seen the time - I *have* to send an email before 3, more work then.

    Hope everyone's having a good day.... I'm looking forward to 4.30....

    Sigh ... I managed it all. And I sort of went straight into working on the front garden, it was weird - swept the path, swept the bits along the front where the soil falls off the garden onto the pavement, swept the patio. Put horrible manky bamboo pieces of armchair into bin. Put rubbish out, recycling into garage. Ate chocolate. Ate pesto, tho not in that order :D. Sent emails, tho not received replies. Have tidied *and* watched Total Wipeout, *and* am about to watch Mock The Week :D
