    Morning Dobie
    I'm here, I've just finished reading yesterdays thread.
    Hugs to PP - honestly hope you are okay, that is a lot to deal with.
    Me and my stardrops are planning more adventures today,(I did put it down for an hor honest TinkerbellUK) that's if the ironing doesn't start asking for attention.
    But it's a cloudy and a miserable looking sky so perhaps a bit of 'movie and duvet' for the boys on the sofa this afternoon.
    Hope everyone is feeling okay

    Morning

    Slept like a log last night, only just got up and went to bed at just gone 9pm:eek:
    Working from home today, I seem to have so much to do and lots of end of month stuff:rolleyes:
    I have my tumble dryer being delivered this afternoon too, perhaps I will be able to get some washing done then:D
    will have a browwse through the friday ad as I am going to buy a little chest freezer so I can batch cook a bit more and if I recall there are usually a few in there at reasonable prices, or should I buy a new one?:confused:
    No more news on my horse just a huge vet bill for some antibiotics and a tub of cream £100:eek: :eek:

    Hope everyone is well

    Goodmorning Dobie, Twink, PP & Jo & all those to follow,

    It's nice to be early for a change. ;) Still raining atm. It did look like it was going to fine up so did all the washing. They are now dripping wet on the clothes line. :p Got ALL my ironing finished. Did you read that TM. :D
    Sorted out the finances seeing as we had a big spendfest on the house this last week. So far we are within our expected budget. I'm hoping it can stay that way.

    Twink Sound's like a trip to the dr's. If you can get it early Ural works.

    PP How sad for your friend. Hope you can get some rest later on in the day.

    Jo Stardrops is another thing we can't get here. :mad: How it annoys the hell out of me. :D Have fun.

    Well I will scoot off and pop back later. Chicken smells delish so will turn that off now. It will probably all break to bits when I try and get it out of the SC like usual. :rolleyes: Byeeeeeeee
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)

    Morning, all from a grey and miserable suffolk:D

    I am planning to turf out bedroom two today, I did the kids room yesterday, and yes jo I too had me bottle of stardrops:D Have some washing to do, but the weather isn't looking promising for outdoor drying, so will have to get it dried indoors.
    The kittens are settling in beautifully, creating much amusement with their antics:rotfl: It's definately a home now that we have them, nothing nicer than seeing kittens draped over the sofas to make you feel all warm inside is there?

    PP Try and get some rest later ok hun?
    Twink Wish it was warm and dry here:rolleyes:
    Dobie Hope you have a nice day at work, and sorry we didn't post earlier:rotfl:

    Breakfast tea and toast

    Lunch something in bread

    Dinner hmmmm... am working on that one ( reall;y must do a meal planner)

    love and hugs

    Morning All

    PP just read the rest of yesterday's thread. Huge hugs to you

    I'm exhausted today. We went go karting last night (that's all of us at work). I'd never done it before, but somehow I made the final. I got off to a great start, only for my boss to spin me on the first bend:mad: I was robbed I tells ya!!! Not in pain like some people are. The benefits of youth!!!!:D Was a good FREE night out

    Got to be around 11pm to be up at 4am, but I woke at 1.30am thinking it was time to get up

    Off out again tonight. Meeting up for some drinks with a friend. Think I'll be on the soft stuff owing to being on the road so early tomorrow morning.

    How long till the weekend????

    Hiya everyone :hello:

    Hope you're all ok, I haven't read the daily thread for ages, I've had no energy and everything seems like hard work. I'm very peed off, my biz isn't going as planned because people (by 'people' I mean mr troo) keep interfering with what I want to do. I thought that by now - the kids are 15 and 16, mr troo earns enough to pay for everything (if we're careful) - I'd be able to throw myself into it. I've been looking after everybody else since I was 19, I thought at age 35 it wasn't unreasonable for me to do something I want to do instead of something I have to do. It's not like it costs money, it's making money, I admit it's not a lot but it'll never make a fortune while I can only do a few hours per week. Wish everyone would eff off and leave me to it.

    Morning all

    Just a swift hello to everyone before we shoot off again, have to be on the train in an hour and it takes nearly 30 minutes to walk there with DD :(

    Off to Techniquest with Kaz today, I need to find a cashpoint in Cardiff before we can get in though :)

    Have a good day everyone.

    4 hours sleep for me so I've been up since 5am doing washing-up and laundry. I'm off work this week, so I'll be going up the road to get milk, then on to the allotment to dig beds and tut about the foxes digging up my potatoes. Before that I'll fold laundry and clean the kitchen and bathroom.

    Breakfast: Toast and coffee
    Lunch: Cold chicken
    Dinner: Something Chinese
