Kaz - the fudge looks good - I'd be interested in the recipe too - how long does it keep if it's not all snaffled up by thieving whatsit's?

Not sure how long it keeps but if it wasnt for the teachers there wouldnt be much left by now. Will try and post recipe but might do it in stages as internet keeps going down every 5 mins :mad: Ok if you hear the screaming its because its going down about every minute and a half and I'm not impressed :mad::mad:

Next week is going to be doing fun things with the children (whether they like it or not!!):rotfl:. DD wants to do cookies for all the neighbours/family etc with their names iced on them. She keeps walking past houses and asking who lives there!!! I've told her she can do close neighbours....NOT the whole estate! She's also asked if she can bake cookies and write 'thank you' on them instead of thank you cards this year. I think that's a lovely idea.

I think thats a lovely idea, what a thoughtful daughter

Just when I thought things were finally over re NQT year, evil deputy said to me that she needed to talk to me about my NQT stuff today - she said she couldn't do it this afternoon as she was going on a course, but could do it tomorrow - I asked her when, and she said she didn't know - I've no idea what it's about, and am now sat here worrying again. I'm meant to be going out to the supply teacher's xmas do tomorrow and it's quite a way to travel, and I've got to be there for 5.30pm, so she'd better not insist on it being after school! At least tomorrow is a fairly easy day in terms of lessons.

SM hopefully its nothing to worry about but once you are finished for the day you are finished - No arguments, I mean you have a very important online meeting with a lot of ladies who will be looking out for you!!

I know there was more but among my squealing I've forgotten it, oh and when I posted at lunchtime I actually forgot to say what I'd done which was
hoovered living room including sofas
hoovered under sofas
hoovered stairs and hallway
hoovered dining room and kitchen
hoover utility and cloakroom
Washing up drying up
and that was about it.

Since then it was DD school concert - she should have been one of the narrators but chose to be a (non-speaking) zebra instead !!!!!!
Then I took her shopping for presents for her friends - 2 hours to get 4 of them !!! But a plus point was I had been trying to get some bits that DS wanted and this time one of them was back in stock so he'll be pleased.

Am still trying to get a decent connection to no avail so as soon as it comes up I will whack this post in then try ad do another with the recipe.

nopot2pin thanks for explaining defragging and in a way I could understand as well. I really am hopeless with computers but this one is 3 years old and never defragged, I'll give it a go. Thanks again

No problem pillion
If you dont have anyone that can do it for you, give me a shout if you get stuck .
A very very long time ago, I used to work in IT... and although it is a very fast paced environment, and my mind is like a sieve at the best of times, I have remembered the odd useful bits and bobs

Awww shucks Thanks

Ok, no flying for me today..
Work is seriously getting in the way of everything :rolleyes:

I've broken FB :o It won't let me on there

I've washed up tho and run DH a bath and stuff. He was at work all day in the snow moving a pile of soil from one place to another. Don't know why someone wanted to pay him for doing that, but we are not complaining!
