    Sally, good luck with the DFD, I'm aiming for 2nd Jan 1011, my 30th, should easily be doable.

    :rotfl:Do you have a time machine Ames?

    Afternoon all. Mum & Dad are gone and I can relax now:rolleyes: Was lovely to see them but hard work. When I told Mum about relapse and pilss thing she had 2 comments - 'don't use paracetamol' and 'I'll be very angry'... no cuddle, no sympathy nothing. It was like I'd never spoken:confused:

    Ex has really surpassed himself this time, he's lost a cotton wool bud tip in his ear and is too embarrassed to see a doctor/nurse about it, I can't see this one ending any way other than bad...

    Well he'll notice when it gets infected and starts to smell... :eek:

    Thanks everyone, I told him it'll get infected and stuff, but he said he's going to ask his mum what to do.

    Ooops, no time machine!

    Luc, I'm really sorry about your mum's attitude, I get the same from my dad. At least you know you're doing the right thing, and we're all here for you to talk to when you need it.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    :hello: Luc.....mums huh! although I have to say when my kids are upset about stuff I find it hard to deal with cos I can't bear them to be upset and I feel helpless...

    I love Elf and I watched Love Actually on Saturday....that has to be one of my favourite films...along with stardust....it has some proper sad/happy moments....

    I am still watching my niece work......:rotfl:
