    Hi to any of you still up. Just got in from 2nd job so that 12 hours for me in total today. Would love to be at home cleaning and ironing, but have no choice with OH out of work. DON'T YOU DARE MOVE THAT KNITTING MACHINE - LET SOMEONE ELSE STUB THEIR TOE THEN THEY WILL MOVE IT. You have been a busy bee all day and the house looks lovely. Well will try and catch up with you all again - maybe tomorrow, but boss back and it may be nose to the grind stone. Take care you all - Billie xx PS Two of my boys got given wallets for their 21st and they were very much used.

    I'm watching Famous Rich and Jobless. The only one I've heard of is Meg Matthews. I really wish they'd put one of them with a disabled person/family though.

    I'm watching the John Lewis programme as well - so much set in our local store
  • Anybody still up?
    Just got in - need food.
    GS1 has ear, throat and chest infection plus conjunctivitis. DD1 can't decide whether to be a proper mother (her words not mine) and stay off work or get me to drive over there at 7am. (my job doesn't seem to enter into her thinking).

    Going to investigate the fridge.

    I'm still up.

    !!!!!!? How can that Irish guy think that knocking on doors for odd jobs is going to get a guy enough work to support a family on? never mind the tax and stuff. And I bet he'd be the first to complain about benefits claimants working cash in hand!
