    Hi Nev, i'm going to ring you in a sec.
  • Hugs Sunnygirl, hope you get better soon, sounds like you might be going down with something maybe? Well done to your DD, it’s great she’s doing so well at school

    Hugs Valli, will be thinking of that poor family that lost their dad, and the family Dusty knows too, and the family of the man that Thifty knew, so sad to hear all these things

    Madcatgirl, good news on deciding on getting a new flat! WTG!

    Trying to watch Ruth Watson’s Hotel Rescue on 4od and it’s driving me mad! It keeps stopping every few seconds and pausing and then gets going again! Grr! Now the sound is ok but the picture is completely stuck! So I’m listening to it like a radio programme with long pauses. It’s taken me over an hour to watch/listen to about 30 min of it

    I’ve probably missed you Sarah, but hope the day goes well and have a hug from me when you get home

    Smartie, am intrigued by your jewelry making, do you mind me asking how you sell it? Through a shop, or on ebay or what? I’m thinking of selling home-made knitted items, so would appreciate any kind of tips you have on working from home selling crafty things!

    Dreamywings, hope your son is better soon

    Hugs Dusty, hope you and yours are all better soon

    I had a terrible night, full of nightmares in which I was crying endlessly. Don't know why, I'm not feeling especially down. However, I really need to get on with decluttering today and trying to sell something on ebay. DH has managed to go out to work, but just phoned to say that the truck is making funny noises and needs to go into the garage. Sigh. One day we might not have any money worries! So I need to get selling. Need to download holiday pics on to the pc so I can delete them from my phone and take ebay pics!
    Also, going to move an armchair out, slide the sofa across the room into gap created by armchair, so can tidy under where sofa was (think rubix cube but with armchairs and sofas). Oh, and washing up, didn't do any yesterday.

    ...there is no list update - am snorting and snuffling into tissues - managed to get myself up and to work tho. Flying for the rest of this week will just be S&S-ing and general tidying up.

    have got olbas oil on tissue, couldn't smell it so put loads on and inhaled it and nearly burned my eyes out:rotfl:.

    What's this bullying thing? I've not seen any, this board is really supportive as far as I'm concerned.

    was doing quick skim of posts sorry to hear of terrible news re kiddies losing their fathers.
