    I know urgent in the NHS is different than urgent everywhere else and of course if it all goes t*ts up in the meantime...........blame the social worker!!

    I must be feeling better, I am getting on my soap box again!

    What I wouldn't do to be in the sunshine with you Chev!!

    No no there is no storm and the sky is blue - well thats whats in my fantasy!!

    Sorry its a pants day there too :(

    Forgot to share - this is TMI so stop reading now if you are squeamish.................

    The toe nail I 'set' back on during toe-gate came off last night and there was a lovely new shiny and reasonably well formed baby toenail - awh! It is growing well and should reach optimum height in a few weeks! I am very pleased with the new addition to my foot!

    Now how's that for positive :)

    Moneywise - all ok. CC due today as is one of DH's super chq's tomorrow so hopefully we can cover both but if CC not paid today it will be paid by weekend!

    blue skies etc take another 3 weeks or so, by the beginning of November it is pretty sunny and warm most days. It then stays that way pretty much until the end of March. It is one of the major bonuses of living here - especially as we are 5 mins from the beach as well.

    Glad to read that your toes are getting better nice one.

    And it seems as if your financial juggling is more controlled now too, so pat on the back for that as well.

    Thanks Taxi!

    And thank you all for celebrating my new toe nail!

    Another day and pay out...............not much to report. Will be late with B'card payment but only by a day or two (still not good but better than missed!)

    And I made a major blunder...............I lodged money I owed my mum into someone elses account!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She came back from holiday yesterday and asked why I hadn't put it in 2 weeks ago......................investigated and hey ho some one else got the money so off to Absurd&Ludicrous today to work it out......Wish me luck
