    Good morning everyone

    It's DS's big day today, piano exam, so we are off to Colchester this morning for that. Then he has his "Saturday" job to look forward to in the afternoon! He can't do it Saturday, as he will be doing the sport relief mile. It's a good job it is only a mile, cos each time I have suggested he do some training he has put it off till later - the sort of later that never appears! Still, being 15 he has enough energy to get him round a mile. Even if it's not that fast!

    I hope you have a good day, although I know that there are some of you with some quite serious worries; ((((hugs))) to each of you.

    'See' you later!

    Morning Queenie, ageandjo and all to follow:D

    Terrible night last night.
    OH is just stripping the beds and they will be put in WM(about 3 washes:eek: ) Have the cleaner here today, so nothing more to do here really. Think OH is planning on tidying some of the garden up.

    Im doing some of my essay today as that needs to be sent off in the next 2 weeks:rolleyes: Its all about what we would do if we saw a potential abusive situation regarding a child...lucky me!

    ageandjo-I love Bromley! We park in the glades in the shopmobility section and its free all day and I can use one of there electric scooters-so more space for shopping;) Their Primarks is the best Ive been in. I worked in Bromley for many years and love the vibe over there-I sure do miss it. Disneystore have a big sale on ATM:confused:

    Queenie-Hope your GP visit goes well, and your menu for today sounds lovely.

    Have 3 bids on items I put on Ebay already and they dont finish for another 9 days.

    Anyway, better go as DD needs her lunch doing.

    Breakie: Shredded Wheat with honey and nuts
    Lunch: Baked Spud with leftover Chicken Curry
    Dinner: Bangers, Mash, cabbage and onion gravy

    Catch Ya Later. Hugs!

    Morning all, not a very good night here, I think I managed about 3 hours sleep, turned off the alarm and fell asleep again so we were all late up :( Then I remembered I'd forgotten to put the bins out last night and when I looked the bin lorry was already heading off down the road :(

    Just waiting for DD to finish her breakfast and then I can get ready to go out to take the parents shopping again.

    :rotfl:

    I'll tell him after his exam!!!!

    Thanks for the best wishes!

    By the way, the last time we visited Colchester Zoo was probably about 5 years ago! And I drive almost past it every week on the way to the piano lesson!
    I can't wait till we can take DD's 2 little ones there (aged 11 months & 2)
