  • Sorry PenPen. Hope I haven't offended you. You are right, of course - all these PPs are very confusing. :confused: Hope you are well then!

    Maybe we should start a new thread - find individual abbreviations for all the PPs on the site. :p

    hi everyone had a average day went shopping nothing exciting lol.. did go and pick up some prospectus's ( must learn to spell that one day) for the local college as something to do whilst my dd settles into her new school.. i will have to drive her there and back for about a year so thought i would do a part time course.. found one i liked but the part time is are you waiting for it... 1 hour a week for 33 weeks.. im sorry but that would bore me to tears.. so i checked out the full time and they around the 22 hour mark which is more of the part time i was thinking about.. why dont they make things simple these days lol

    Evening all

    I've read the thread in stages today so no individual hellos just a general group hug.

    We're off to inlaws for the long weekend, going to Longleat and legoland curtosy of Mr T's deals, and finding a nice Adams store to spend the vouchers curtosy of Mr Sainsburys and his promotion this week (my 3000 nectar points actually got made into £45 of Adams vouhcers - very handy for back to school shoes for DD's).

    Took DD's to the cinema today and just been out for a drink with them and DH as the start of our week off treat. Helps that it's payday today and he got an extra £650 in overtime :j

    I've not been near the oven all day - DD's have had toast for brekkie, pizza for lunch and more toast for tea - ah well - it won't hurt them once in a while.

    I hope you all have a fantastic weekend whatever your upto. I won't be back until Wednesday so hope you're all well behaved until then :D

    No offence at all, Annie! It's lovely to know people are thinking of you, even if you're not poorly :wave:

    Skystar Forgot to mention you in my last post. Sorry!!!!!! :o

    I am guessing that you are from Shotts or thereabouts. Would I be right? Just going by the clues you gave (the east of Lanarkshire but working in West Lothian). I am from Newmains but have lived in Preston for the last 17 years. Haven't lost the accent though. :rotfl:


    Very good guess Annie - Harthill in fact. Went to school in Shotts.

    How weird tho' I have just been to Newmains for dinner :rotfl:

    What a small world.

    Kiwi, I think I'd tell him to take the tickets back and he can buy the present! :(
