    Morning All :hello:,

    Time for a little Friday dance I feel :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

    Happy Birthday NPM, make sure you enjoy yourself and that's an order!
    MSD - on the table :eek: I hope you're not grooming them for frogs legs for tea :naughty:
    Bitsy - what height is your DH? He's done amazingly well; I can't believe he was carrying 21st!!! Just wondered if he's tall which might make me think that! I'm diddy so if I put on half a pound you can see it :wall:
    Thanks to everyone who gave me travel info about the North East yesterday (thanks for the links kezlou :))

    My break from OS yesterday did not pan out quite as I had planned as I forgot Emmerdale was on again at 8 and missed it :cool:. My OS today is going to be pretty limited again on account of going out with my work friends. So perhaps I'll have to ask the barman to come up with some OS cocktails so that you don't strip me of my badge :p

    Happy Friday, hugs to all xx

    Bitsy - Blimey! My DH is 5'10" and I can only talk directly to him if I'm in considerable heels! To say nothing of the friend I have at work who is 6'10"!!!!

    Hi everyone and Happy Birthday NPM, I hope you have a wonderful day.

    I'm off to see the breast care nurse this morning, hopefully to be reassured that the strange swelling and rash that have appeared are quite normal. I'm probably being paranoid (and DH is worse since his mother died) but I don't want to spend the whole weekend wondering if I should have got it checked out.

    I made steak diane last night to use up some cream that was out of date, it was good but I don't think I will do it again.

    Must go and tackle the kitchen, see you later.
