    Hi all! I haven't had time to catch up on the thread yet. I hope everyone is okay. Hugs to anyone who needs them but very especially to Toots and L-l. and rosepink

    I have Finished the kitchen Toots

    I haven't been able to be around on here much as my laptop has been hijacked by DS2 who is frantically looking for an admin job as his funding has ended.

  • Happy Birthday jinky, dorastar and Mumof5.:bdaycake:

    Haven't got anything done so far today as Olly is teething. He refused to go down in his cot & has now fallen asleep on the living room floor. So I really can't possibly get anything done!

    I am currently decluttering a coffee & listening to BBC 6 music.

    I had a letter from ovenclean earlier. After the flyer yesterday, if def fate! I am meant to pay to get it cleaned, lol!

  • Rose Hi hunni!!! They best blooming well not park there! It has honestly been an utter nightmare since they moved in, what with us having to hike half way up a hill, three kids and a wheelchair in tow, them cutting down all the trees and now being able to spy on us when we are in the garden *insert hairpulling smiley!* I assume if they park in the spot and they dont have a disabled spot they will be fined, clamped and towed??? Does anyone know what the penalty is for parking in a disabled spot with out a blue badge? The problem is going to be inforcing it. We dont live in a town, so the liklyhood of a traffic warden coming by are zilch...so i imagine it will be lots of phone calls to the landlord, and he takes it from there?!! Operation wise i have no idea. I am going to see the consultants next week, and the plan was to do an exploritory op and see if they can do anything first. That will probably be within the next few weeks. I cant have it any later than end of march though cus of the wedding! Plus it will set me back quite a lot which is not what i want!
    Amelia has finally gone to sleep(Pooh, if they are premmi baby clothes then i'll put yours on as well :D ) so i have...decluttered a cuppa and a pork pie. Much miffed off with asda, mixed up the shopping so instead of lemon cake, crisps and chocolate chip cookies i got baked beans and diet pop....someone is trying to tell me something.
    I am not happy GRRRRR
