    Dailies done apart from HHI - must be getting on top of this as I can't find any coat hangers!

    Guess it's RoD tomorrow - dreading it! Still, have done better than expected so far. DH asked if sister had visited yesterday (she has lovely showroom standard house!) so Flying must be making a difference.

    Couldn't face another Freezer Surprise meal tonight - but still using up freezer food!

    Good luck again Zoe

    Holly what site can you not use with which browser (I am being nosey - I find firefox crashes amazon and I have NEVER been able to get quidco so use IE for them)

    I was trying to use Tesco.com with IE which wouldn't work so i downloaded Firefox and it worked.

    Pigpen So sorry to hear your tragic news
    Zoe Good luck for tomoro, keep positive for the kids (((hugs)))

    My 7yr old DD is off school with a bad eye infection so been docs today. She's got to have eye drops every 2 hours and she hates me for it cos it stings so much :o
    She read my list on pg1 and wanted to know why Monday's got a special name and Tuesday is plain old Tuesday. So she spent the next half hour giving Tuesday a name... terrible tuesday, terrific tuesday, tidy tuesday, etc, etc, etc. I feel like I've had an English lesson:rotfl:

    Hi again,

    I've done the school run. Ds2 was naughty on the way home and kept poking Ds1 with his Sonic Screwdriver. Ds1 took it off him and Ds2 bit him:eek::mad:. He then proceded to scream the whole way home ( Ds2):cool:. I gave him a rolocking and sent him to his room to calm down and he went to sleep.

    And wooooooo woooooooo whooooooooooooo!!!!! Two mentions by tootles in her post! I'm famous, i'm famous, i'm famous (and ever so slightly off my rocker!).....don't worry i've not been drinking!!!

    I've just had to drop my DD off at the high school for a music event. She was ever so nervous (she doesn't start there until next year). Anyway, we got there, walked into the room and half of the children were up on their feet shouting 'hiya, how are you....come and sit here'. She knew most of them from when they were at her school. She was so relieved though i'm not sure how she feels as she had to sit next to one of those unknown, slightly odd species (according to her) 'a boy'! You should have seen her face!!!

    I've popped home to put a shepherds pie in the oven before going back to collect her. I'm going to do a quick drawer whilst i'm here and then go. See you later xxxx
