    Pen Pen I was just looking for my list and read your post. So sorry about your hens you must be justifiably upset x
  • Morning all. Off to find my list. Didn't get finished yesterday. Decided to tidy cupboard under sink & found it all wet. Re-sealed sink instead so now I can't use it properly until this afternoon. Is this a good excuse for not flying:rotfl:That would be a no then:rolleyes:

    My birthday on the 14th and no mum and no beloved nephews. I miss my nephews so much it hurts. Sorry, I know I mention this far too frequently but the whole toxic mother discussions have been close to the bone for me and with my birthday and christmas coming, it all just hits home some more. I miss the birthday cards (always two from mum - family tradition and home made ones from each of the boys) and I miss hugging them and I miss the birthday party tea we always had.
    Oh boy what a self-pitying drip! Ok, *mentally shakes herself* that is enough of that, there is a cowboy needing some positivity and that is more important right now. :rotfl:Sorry for the moan, worse things happen at sea!
    Off to find my list
