    Sorry to post bad news, but the police called at 5pm to tell me that my husband Paul was found dead in his bed on board ship this morning 7am Falklands time.

    The ship is still out at sea, so waiting for info.

    Am drooling at the sound of Haribo's profiterole cake, sounds gorgeous!

    After DD managed to throw her casserole round the whole room, I came downstairs to find the foster cat had been sick on the floor and was on the litter tray depositing a very liquid mess. :eek: Something obviously didn't agree with her tum!

    Used the hour I was sat in the car whilst DD swimming to plan out her appeal for a school she didn't get into, its next Monday so need to have my case all prepared.

    Looks like I'll be ironing when they go to bed at 8, as they have just kindly thought to tell me they have no tops left for school. Thought I was safe til tomorrow, but it seems not!
