    I have a family railcard which gives cheaper fares if you travel with children, have you got one? If so we could book our rail fares together from Manchester to Bunnys and a return for 3 of us (you, me and your DD) comes to £43 for us all........not each:T

    My eyes are bleeding now from looking at train fares but what do you think? The cheapest fares are leaving Manc on Sat at 1.30pm and returning from Wellington at 10.23am (so I can catch my return train to Durham at 1.30pm)

    I dont have a railcard :(

    Are you over sleeping Sammy? That can be worse than undersleeping!

    <Insert confused smiley here> dunno Linda....

    I have just had a bad period of waking up at 2 or 3 every morning so I was taking a sleeping tablet at night, which I then halved for a couple of nights and for the last few nights I have had none. Slept well the first couple of nights, then OH couldn't sleep and kept me awake. Had a good nights sleep last night.

    I have just woken up from another nap...I never normally sleep during the day:cool:

    I think I just need to get my sleep pattern back into sync...I am actually tired as opposed to exhausted (which is how I used to feel).

    It could also be because I have just stepped up the exercise...

    Either that or I have narcolepsy...which i also strongly suspect...:rotfl:

    Sammy, I always feel that if I sleep for hours then my body must have needed it.

    Two and a half men is fab.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Oh well, I am not moaning...(much) its better than not sleeping.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I do though, it just means that I have to book the tickets and so long as there is a child travelling with us it doesnt matter who's;)

    I have just switched to PAYG with Tesco. For £15 topup they triple that so I get £45 of credit per month to use as I choose. Will see how it works out.
