Carol, ***coping vibes***
juliejim yeaaaaa heating.
How exciting zoe, you'll do it no problem. I organized our's in 4 months.
Oh no Helen hope he feels better soon.

Kids enjoyed the school trip yesterday, except for getting off the bus when they got back. Buses had no where to park, they couldn't get turned so they stoped in the middle of the road and teachers started to get the kids out. Nightmare.

We've had more snow over night and i very nearly lost the car this morning, scary stuff and left me shaking for 5 minutes becfore i could drive again. I'm not worried about myself it was because the kids where there.

I could really do with stocking up today but not sure about the driving and worried the school may ring out when we're not here. So i'll see what way it goes.

Landing cupboard done. Lots of things to relocate/rehome :rolleyes:. Lots of it should live in the first aid kit (not so happy about that, it lives above the boiler behind lots of junk, so will be a hassle to unearth).

Greenbee - what is the use of having a first aid kit if you can't get at it?:rolleyes: Go and dig it out and put it somewhere accessible so that if you need it you can get it!
