    Happy Birthday Choccy.

    So sorry for your loss Flourgirl - at least he will be out of pain now :( What a young age though.

    Pepop - My OH had something similar happen to him last year was awful at the time but it's worked out better as if he'd taken the job he would have been redundant by now :eek:

    Made an envelope for my friends card when I got in am going to swap it for cake tomorrow - yummy! Plus I had my hair cut - torture :D

    My supervisor came into work moaning about how painful her shoulder was and how she'd just woken up with it this morning - I just grinned as I'm sure she thought I was putting it on last year :D

    Ladies - I'm very sorry for those having a bad time through ill health and bereavement but can't help having a smile at the thought of Flourgirl's boob woes ( I wondered what was coming when I started to read....) and Padster wreaking revenge on her boss with a Voodoo doll :rotfl:

    Rusty - Hope you get a good night's sleep (presume you've tried Calpol) not for you, the poorlies.

    Flourgirl - tell OH not to worry how much you've got in your bank - you wont have by time you've been to NEC!

    Well that's my treat I've got to go & catch up with the ironing now.........

    Was sniggering at Flourgirl feeding her boobs and OH said for god's sake don't feed yours or you'll trip over them - bless him he loves me really :rotfl::rotfl:.

    Should I invest in one of these just in case :D

    Sorry I haven't been around, and haven't read all your posts yet but we had some very sad news on Tuesday evening.

    My lovely neice's partner Scott passed away quietly at home. They sent him home from Papworth for a few days, and I think they knew he was near the end. Its so sad and so tragic that someone so young (25years old) and so lovely has gone. He was so poorly I doubt if he would have survived if a new heart had been offered, its just 5 years since he had the last transplant and everyone of those days has been precious to my niece. Scott was a lovely young man and when all the pain has eased Helen will have some beautiful memories of the short time they had together. God Bless xxx

    I'm so sorry to hear this flourgirl, what an awful thing to happen especially to someone so young. My thoughts are with you and your family.
