  • Claire if you can use ordinary wool, let me know and I'll get my mums old ladies to keep an eye out.

    I'll also ask about craft stuff as well. You'd be surprised as to what donations she gets.

    Can I add someone to your 'french stick' list Pepe? :)

    Feeling a little better today, absolutely drained of energy but hey, I've lost 2lbs despite a bit of a choc-fest, so every cloud and all that... :rotfl:

    Bloody phone is broken, it has a 'known fault' which Nokia are currently working on a fix for but haven't found one yet <rolls eyes> so I was told I had to take in to a shop in the centre of Leeds, which either meant train fares or parking, and a load of hassle dragging two reluctant kids with me, so I persuaded them to collect it from me and take it away for the software to be reinstalled, which is a 'temporary fix but not a real solution' apparently. Pretty good service from them for once though.

    Shall I try to run tonight despite feeling wiped out? Don't really enjoy walking alone, particularly in the dark so don't fancy doing that. Could go to the gym I guess, but not really feeling up to that either. Wondering if I force myself to go, my energy will come back.

    Must be getting slowly back on track though, I've just caught up on 2 days worth of washing up! :eek: :cool: :o
