    i think we're having a dominoes tonight too :dance: all we could have had was grilled chicken and chips but i forgot to defrost the chicken! i have actually remembered that we do have frozen sausages but after OH's kind offer of getting a dominos in i might have to decline to tell him about my freezer find...

    i wonder if SS has managed to get to the UK yet, or if she has been horrendously delayed!

    I've just written my to-do list... It's a side and a half of A4 :( Best get cracking!

    I did post fairy post earlier though (to SM, MM, Sami and Weezl). I used a "weigh it yourself and print a sticker" machine though so I hope I've done it right and you don't end up having to pay more to get them off the postie! :o

    thank you elle :A

    Oh well my dad replied, with about 4 words like "How is life treating you" "I'm okay, just got the flu"

    !!!!!!? Do I not deserve a bigger reply than 4 words? Bloody loser he is.

    Basically I just told him that I accidentally stumbled across him on FB and it was like looking at myself, said a few things about me, asked how he was doing in life, if he was married/more kids etc.

    He's divorced, still lives in Aberdeen and has no more kids (no suprise, he didn't ever want me)

    He probably thinks I'm after a Christmas present or something (He was like that, stopped working everytime my mum got in contact with the CSA, so he didn't have to pay) Wish I hadn't messaged him now, blatantly obvious, I'm just a nothing.

    Hey ho....

    buttons, remember he is a man, he might not know what to say? at least he did say something, he could quite easily have ignored your message :) try to look on the bright side :)

    you have just turned him into a grandad, he might be reeling from the shock ;)
