Sounds like a plan Bun!
I had a slightly scary experience while dog walking neighbours labrador earlier..Jess waded into pond, and I didn't want lead to get wet, so dashed after her(as I had let go of lead in error),only to find the mud round the pond was quick-sand like, and nearly 3 ft deep!!! I rapidly sunk up to knees,and was heading for mid-thigh level,and totally stuck-it was like glue.Luckily DD was with me, and not in mud so she pottered around and found some branches,which we lay on the ground close to me, and I wriggled out snake-like on my belly on the branches. Had to leave expensive wellies in mud,then turn myself round and head back out to mud and pull said wellies out-I wasn't leaving them there! Staggered home looking like a swamp creature and straight into the bath....a bit scary really, and good job DD was with me....Debt-free...and staying that way...0 -

I think its mostly I have wasted the day and I am feeling guilty but she has been looking forward to watching merlin and I whilst I could clean out the fish tanks I think she will be upset if I bog off now. GRRRRRRRR.
She goes away in two weeks for six weeks and I will miss her then! Its always like this just before she goes away. I don't what her to go but I do want to get on with things.
xxxNevertheless she persisted.0 -
