    Hi everyone

    YAY Toots is back! I am so pleased to see you, hope the treatment helps this time.

    Jinks it sounds like you're having a stressful time at the moment, so lots of hugs and we'll miss you while you're internetless xx

    Lil-me good luck for London you'll be great!

    Mumof - I'm so glad Pip is okay!

    Piggers - glad the weekend is going well

    Done some decluttering this morning, got a big bag of stuff to drop of at the charity shop tomorrow, did the washing up, planned an email to send tomorrow morning, and scrubbed tha bath after soaking myself for a while.

    Vibes as always to Lady-L (sorry you had a bad day yesterday), Toots, Diva and Tris, Sandy, GnB's LO and Rose (don't tire yourself out too much hun) and the ones I've forgotten

    Love and hugs to everyone else too!

    Morning all footy again
    washing on line - all yesterdays because it rained yesterday so I thought I'd wait - drying beautifully.

    Kudos to nice next door neighbour who has got his tyre inflator out and inflated DD's bike tyres. My ffot pump's kaput - found out it had a hole in the hose but Lidl have them on offer tomorrow. All the bike tyres (3 bikes) are down, presumably caused by the cold weather over winter. I cannot find the bicycle pump anywhere and I saw it the other week.

    Welcome back Toots
    - we missed ya! FFPs daughter came over to the dark side - she's gutted but Tag and I are thrilled. We WILL have matched pegs!

    DD has to write a diary of a holiday to a French speaking country. She chose the good ole US of A (because she is mad on the USA) and wrote that she went up the Empire State Building and had fish and chips...(in French) discussed realism with her then we changed it to Paris - I've been twice, she's been once. Thanks to Babel Fish and Wiki in French I think we now have an acceptable diary! Trouble is I can READ French reasonably well - but my grammar - well n'est PAS formidable - c'est terrible!

    Hi everyone

    can't even remeber the last time I posted but I hope everyone is doing ok.

    my life went down the toilet 2 weeks ago today and the house shows it - i've either been sitting crying or sitting fuming and nothings been done.:(

    so, i've decided to start posting again to get some motivation and support because how me and the kids haven't caught salmonella or something worse in the last couple of weeks is a miracle.

    i'll post my christmas tree when the new thread appears so pigpen and toots know i'm back

    take care

    radish well done for flying at BF's - hope he gets the idea! and yes you are right - reading the threads [STRIKE]wastes[/STRIKE] uses a lot of time - you need to find a balance and dont stress if you cant keep up - its not important.
    lil_me enjoy the first class travel and I hope the MP's take notice - good luck honey.
    fedup its lovely to see you thinking of another break away - you are doing brilliantly - its like a new woman has emerged from the dark hole (((hugs)))
