    I have been really ill with Cava before so i cannot even look at the bottle in the supermarket never mind drink it again:o
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Morning. Kids have just arrived home from their weekend with the Grandparents, I have finished all my ironing, so this afternoon we are going to the park with Mr Sunday and his kids..... :o

    Not a huge fan of cava (or champagne for that matter), I like the taste but it makes me feel ill. Make mine a glass of red please! :D

    (Although champagne for breakfast is socially acceptable, whereas red wine for breakfast is....not!)

    Morning. I was going to have a day doing OU work and relaxing. But sister's just phoned and I'm going to a gig tonight. Don't want to, but she was really looking forward to it and has had a crap time at work lately, and might have to miss a couple of gigs next weekend so I've got to go. I really need to start standing up to her, but I'm going to use it as an excuse to talk to her about everything - how she's got to stop expecting me to help her at the drop of a hat, and that she has to sort out the credit card chargeback so I can get my £120 back.

    morning..just
    I am feeling rough didn't get much sleep last night due to stupid cold :( Its a beautiful sunny (but freezing wind) day here so we must get out this afternoon for a short walk. Might get DD to walk into town to go to the playpark. We have our tree outside in pot ready to bring in, although have had to move the furniture around in our little box to fit everything in pmsl!

    Have fun swimming Cat
    Snags, have a nice afternoon with Mr Sunday (and kids). Is he on your FB, I don't think ive seen a pic of him!
    BB when I went through P high street on the train yesterday it was absolutely rammed full of people so stay away if you have any sense!

    Becky, you're absolutely right. I'm going to tell her that I'll give her a lift to and from Leeds train station and she can go to Huddersfield on her own. I'm not going to let her boss me around any more! I'm not going to pay for petrol and stuff for a night out that I don't want to go on.

    I think you are being very generous giving her a lift to the train station. Does she not have any friends that would want to go with her?
