    morning all -

    sally.... can i just say, you're doing great... and that list of stuff you did this morning, impressive but i'm not that impressed because as far as i could see you always did everything like that beforehand anyway.... so nothings changed in that regard!

    There will be things you miss from time to time, but remember you did pretty much everything on your own with little support anyway... childcare is not the basis for a relationship and that was all he (and big g in his day) were good for....

    There are so many parallels between what i went thru last year, so i know what you're going thru, and i'm dead proud of you.... Remember it's a major blessing you still have your wee house and bea is a happy camper with the status quo as things are... so focus on the positives.

    Beanie - glad you're feeling more like yourself.... we'll need to plan a visit again soon......
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
    (it's part of my charm!)
  • Helloooooo Maz!

    I completely concur with everything you have said to Sal. So I say DITTO.

    My mums main Mothering Sunday present turned up today, i'm so excited about giving it to her but she doesn't finish work until 5.30pm. On the other hand a flat we're interested in just called us, they'll lower the deposit and the rent is cheap! I AM SO EXCITED!

    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)
