    Oh El, what a crap thing to happen right now.

    Perhaps we should start the "one step forwards, two steps back club".......:confused:

    Hope you manage to get things sorted on the insurance.

    What a pain, still £150 is better than a kick in the teeth.

    Hope your weekend gets better - we are just off out for dinner (thanks Mum!) but it is throwing it down with rain and even going from the back door to the car seems unappealing to me right at this min!

    Teaching was good - we have quite a diverse group on this set of workshops so it makes it interesting, and keeps me on my toes. Same group tomorrow.

    Dinner was nice too - and even better was that there is no washing up to do :D

    Oh El, what a crap feeling - turning up and not being able to do it for such a long time. Hope this week is much better for you all round, no freezers breaking down etc....
