    Sorry I havent been around much and at the moment have only skimmed through to do stars..

    thanks LadyL for the news from Mudbath - how worrying for them - give her my love if you are in touch please and have a huge hug and lots of love yourself too.
    Poor Tiddles - hope she will be ok and the op a success

    hugs and postive healing vibes for trikers friend

    thanks Hex - my nephew has recoverd from whatever nasty bug it was and
    wnet to school today - he is weak but very happy!

    I havent had chance to post replies - I am knackered - have had a really bad 2 days with my feeding tube and ended up back in hospital this afternoon to have it replaced! The balloon that is in my stomach and holds it in place had got stuck half back through the opening into the stomach and I was in agony - after various failed attempts yest and today to sort it I was put in touch with a lovely lady today who said come and I will fix it and she did! My insides are (in her words) traumatised - (in my words) bl**dy sore!!!! but despite that i feel a lot beter so will be having something to aet and going off to bed.

    love and hugs to everyone that needs them and evn those who dont

    see you all tomorrow
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine

    the joys of a three bedroom semi!
    I have neither a spare room nor a utility room

    I have a three bedroom semi with both a spare room and a utility room :D but then I have no kids cluttering it up!

    after I get DD1 from school I have to get the bus to Oxford (1 hr journey each way:eek:) to drop her off with her dad for the weekend which is always a pain and ruins all evening plans :mad:

    How about an evening out in Oxford occasionally? It might make you feel a bit better about it.

    **Gains control**, well next time I decide to embark on a more complicated job rather than a simple job, can someone take me round the back and shoot me.:D

    I have **da daaahhhhhhhh** done the sealant round the bath...its nearly finished me off and lets just say...I'd win no prizes for icing...Greenbee your title of queen icer is very, very safe.:rotfl:
    well we did try to tell you that you needed to take it easy! I know its frustrating when things are grotty, but try to remember you can't fix everything.

    I'm hopeless with sealant as well, but have been shown a few tricks for getting it neater. Masking tape can come in handy on the edges...

    Valli - I can't believe you mentioned a spelling and grammar thread and didn't tell us where!

    Went to work, did some stuff, came back.

    Can't get a Sunday flight to Orlando that will get me there for 3pm, so I'm going to have to go out on a Saturday and stay an extra night, and then get the red-eye back on the Wednesday evening. And I have to fly from gatwick! Still, it's not for a month (during which time I need to get a new passport!).

    Vibes have been sent as needed when I've read the posts...

    Haven't done much flying.

    Any suggestions as to a. what to wear/take on the plane so I arrive looking respectable to meet my boss and b. what to pack for a 4-day business trip, bearing in mind I'm training with colleagues not seeing clients, but will be having meals in the hotel with my boss! I'm hoping to have room for gym kit and swimming stuff so I can spend most of my spare time exercising or sleeping!
