    Hi, im back again!!

    Elona (((HUGS))) sorry to hear about your dad, but what a lovely idea for your daughters, im sure it will mean so much to them x

    Taplady - Apart from the Hockings ice cream (we had one on Saturday on the way past, and another today on the way home!!!!) the best fish and chips are in Braunton, which is down the road from Iilfracombe in a shop called 'Squires chip shop' we had them on Sunday and they were delicious!!!!!
    Not sure how much it is these days, but Watermouth castle is near Ilfracombe, and that might be a good day out!!!!

    Pooky - those cards look lovely!!!!

    Kaz - (((HUGS))) not sure why you are feeling that way, but you seem like a lovely person to me, and ive never seen anything posted that i think anyone could be upset by!!!! Hope you feel more positive later!!!

    Ive tried to read more of the posts, but ive given up now, so if anyone else has been needing a hug:grouphug: .

    Hello everyone,

    was anyone just watching BBC? Martin was on talking about how to get money for your old phones - just caught the end of it. Sounded interesting.

    Didn't get my card started last night as couldn't find my material for ages :rolleyes: So should start it later tonight, though still really want to try my decoupage stuff :D But there is plenty of time for that yet!

    Work went really quickly today which was nice, got a lot of stuff done. It will be good to have some company next week though as it helps pass the time that bit more. Saw a few people today though so can't complain!

    Twink - hope the haircut went okay! Kyle - hope the clinic went okay! Elona - that really was a lovely idea and I'm sure your dds will appreciate it - I bought myself a purse with the last christmas money my grandmother gave me years ago, and I still use it and treasure it.

    Sorry for missing mentioning lots of people by name - when the list gets 5 pages long I lose track of who is talking about what! Hope everyone had as good a day as possible though, and have an even better evening! :j

    Evening all, back from the clinic and ds1 now has a new diabetes nurse:j been without one for a couple of years! so this will be much easier!

    Mentioned about our lo drinking loads and generally not being well and he is concerned about this in regards to getting diabetes. We have to check his blood first thing tomorrow anf if it is over 10 we have to phone the hospital to get him in for a fasting blood sugar test.

    He did offer to book appointment today for him but we wanted to find out his bloods tomorrow.

    Fingers crossed he is okay:confused:

    Ds1 fine, back in december, he is due to start a new insulin which should help his night time hypos.

    Someone sent me a very well timed email today, think it might strike a chord with a few people here at the mo :

    Here is an Interesting FACT ..
    A recent scientific study found that women find different male faces
    attractive depending on where they are in their menstrual cycle.

    For example, when a woman is ovulating she will prefer a man with
    rugged, masculine features.

    And when she is menstruating she prefers a man doused in petrol &
    set on fire, with scissors stuck in his eye & a cricket stump up his ar**!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Post Natal Depression is the worst part of giving birth:p

    In England we have Mothering Sunday & Father Christmas, Mothers day & Santa Clause are American merchandising tricks:mad: Demonstrate pride in your heirtage by getting it right please people!
