    I've got coloured hairspray in my hair so it feels nasty and stiff. Hoping it washes out easily enough. I'm off to give it a try.

    Morning all (just)

    DD2 loved her room last night, but bless her she's come home with a stinking cold and looks like death warmed up...(probably a good thing as she's not bothered by the paint fumes!)

    Got some lovely cards and a pressie from DD's and they were going to cook dinner but with DD2 feeling so poorly and DH not able to help DD1 it will be easier if I do it.

    Tenmah - Well done on the win - don't spend it all at once :D

    Hugs to those thinking of their Mums today

    We have hatched a cunning plan to decline the invite - basically a downright lie, but tis the only way I am afraid.

    Could you not just go to the party without going in fancy dress if it makes you uncomfortable? I'm sure your family would rather have your company, whether you are in fancy dress or not :)

    (I hate fancy dress, so I just don't do it! Never been thrown out of a party yet :D)

    Hugs to Sally today - hope it goes/went ok for you.
  • Hello, just popping in before going to dinner at my sister's.

    Spud, I can't believe they don't have anything planned they are lovely kids. little sods had better sort something out! how hurtful!

    hugs to those missing their Mums, my best mate just recently went through that. She must be in hell today - cos she has kids too so will "celebrate" if you see what I mean. plus the world's most tactless mother in law... ugh.

    any how big hugs for the sad times xxxx

    and Sally - day one of the rest of your life eh here we come!

    Love Buffy xxxxx
    Nevertheless she persisted.
