    Just popping on to wish Valli the best of luck for tomorrow. I hope it all goes well for you.

    Also wanted to say that I hope today went well for you froddy and that it wasn't too much of a shock to the system being back - haven't caught up with the thread as I've been up to my eyes in all evening, but will have a look to see if you've posted in a bit.

    Happy birthday to moomin.

    Congratulations to mudbath on completing her paperwork.

    Hugs to all who need or want them

    Thanks to everyone who's thought of me today. The work load has increased again! Think I'm going to have to be superwoman soon!

    AnW's mum - we're all intrigued!

    Just to say I texted froddy earlier to see how she got on on her first day back. She said it was ok but she's very tired now, guess she might not get around to coming on here tonight.

    Spag bol made, that's tomorrow's dinner done plus two freezer portions for DH when I'm away next week. DH has done the bins. We're going to watch life at 9 then bed I think. Lunches were done last night so nothing to do there :)

    Nightworks are starting almost outside the flat tonight according to the sign. My boss gave me the direct line of a senior guy at transport for london (who manage the road as it's a red route) who didn't have an answer but has promised to investigate and phone me back - always good to be in the know!

    – DD2 is pregnant. She’s only 18 and just started uni and she and boyfriend no longer together but still friends.

    Sorry for the telling you all, but there’s no-one I can talk to at the moment.

    big hugs will all be great and you will look back and wonder why you worried.

    Carlsberggal... I've just caught up and read your post. PLEASE be supportive (by the sounds of it you are:A) I had just turned 17 when I fell pregnant. I'd been kicked out of home a few months earlier (no I wasn't a naughty girl:p) but was still sort of in contact with my parents. When my mother found out I was pregnant she wrote me a very nasty letter :( I haven't seen her for 14 years now and DS has never met her.

    This is so sad big hug for you and your ds Smartie

    Have had an awful day at work so am feeling very down and have a dog on either side of my armchair. Have had lots of choc but have no Gordons left to drown my sorrows:eek: but maybe that's a good thing.
    Off to find my list ready to attack tomorrow night after work.
