Lol.. I caught DS1 a few times too.. told him to wash his hands before eating his dinner! And said if he must do it could he at least pause while I am in the bathroom as he had a very squeaky bed!

Pigpen - Double OMG at your stupid, stupid ExKH and his GF and at your DS - I'm interested in the police bit cos I've told my 2 that if they ever do anything like that I will take them to the police, please share with what happened if you did it, thanks, and, WTG with the HB, great that you finally got a result but keep on at them cos they can use industrial strike excuses for months [they did with me till I got on the phone to them every day and harrassed them]
ME - Happy Birthday, hope you are having a lovely one

im sorry..but i am absoloutley killing myself here, i didnt have to tackle this issue and now the younger ones are girls so will only have to tackle the female side, i dont think the ebd being squeaky will be in issue in there case. I have absoloutley no good advice to give at all but had to post. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:0 -
I am falling asleep whilst trying to study which doesn't seem very productive. I have learnt quite a bit about a couple of the areas of my dissertation so it is a start. I feel that the house has a bit more order after doing some more ironing, another 20 minutes and the pile should have disappeared :j and I love the fact the towels are on the line.
I have a question about posting that I am hoping Pigpen, Toots, Soappie or any board guides may be able to help me with. I am interested in getting a few objective ideas about my dissertation and am wondering firstly if it would clog up this thread too much if I put the basis of it, anyone with any info could PM so it may not be too bad. Could I set up my own thread, I am guessing it is studenty but isn't on a money kind of thing so not sure where it would go. If you can help that would be great. There are so many diverse people, especially on this thread that some people may be able to help me a little. I look forward to any answers.
Anyway off to charity shop and then dentist, will take a book for research in case I am early or they are late.MFW 2025 No. 7 £1931.07/£2700

Having a good day today - did all my dailies before walking the dog, then got back did all my typing (yay!), Mr T shopping came so all put away, been in the garden sorting out chooks, vacuumed right through, changed DD's bedding over and am just about to start peeling vegs for tea (vegetable crumble). Might not seem a lot, but for me that's really good and I'm feeling SOOO much better now I'm not putting pressure on myself about must do loads of stuff.
By the way, didn't get the job at Manor Hall, but they have a flipping cheek. Got a letter from them saying my secretarial skills were impressive and they didn't want to lose me so, get this, would I go and work for them on a voluntary basis? Ummm, let me think ............. NO WAY!!!!!!
Lots of hugs to all as usual; sorry I haven't read thread but am desperately trying to limit time I spend on the computer as I get so distracted
