    Evening all! It's been a mad busy week, currently short staffed (as per usual) and the workload is insane. I'm glad for the weekend to come along. Got the house to myself as OH is away Saturday night, so I've got wine, pizza and chocolate. Doors locked, heating on, strictly and x factor, saturday night is going to be heaven.

    Just to let everyone know, I'm a lot better now. Went to the out of hours doctor, who said in conjunction with my cough, it had triggered a MASSIVE asthma attack which is why I couldn't breathe, and sent me home with lots of pills and inhalers,etc. I'm all ok (well ish, not perfect)

    I'm watching Criminal Justice Beanie and rejoicing in the fact it's the last part - it's good but soooo depressing and draining.

    I actually thought she was going to do something to the baby just before they took it away.
    Gripping stuff but as you say draining stuff.

    so did I Beanie - was so relieved when they took it away and it was crying.
    Bought new Cecelia Ahern book, maybe I should start reading immediately as an antedote!
