    Hi Doodledo

    Sorry you didn't get the job, that is so annoying and very unfair if you are doing the job already.

    Hi

    I am OK, been away since yesterday morning until 6pm tonight. We went to visit my Nan near Telford, she's 93 and starting to forget things etc, she's blind in one eye. She loved seeing the kids as she hasn't seen them for about a year or more, it is sad as it might be the last time I see her, she is getting very confused and saying things that don't make sense, she must have thought she was in a Nursing Home as she has Carers come in every day to help her get up and get dressed and she made some strange comment about the house being so big and going into the next street and it must be big because of all the people who work there.

    We stayed over night in a place at the Services (Days Inn) and went to the cemetery today to put flowers on my Grandad's grave he is buried behind my Aunt so I put flowers on there too, they are in an old small cemetery, there were graves there from 1777 - amazing!

    It's been quite an emotional trip really and I feel quite sad now, but I'm glad we went and she saw the kids because I didn't want her to die and her not to have seen them again as I know I would always feel bad about it. We took some lovely flowers and she appreciated we'd taken the time to go and see her.

    TMD sorry to hear you are feeling a little sad, but I bet that trip made your nans day. She may seem confused etc but I bet seeing your kids and your face made her so happy.

    It's so hard when people we love are getting old and you know they don't have long left sending you some big ((Hugs)))

    TMD - Seems a wonderful thing to do, like doodles said you never know how long we have left on this earth with people so we should always make that effort.

    Im royally phished off!
    Credit card company have taken my HiPG money from my account to pay my cc arrears and now im royally stuck because that money was earmarked for other things other than my !!!!!! debts!
    My own fault for not having a non linked account i guess but im just so annoyed with not having any money and my debts are just a big old albatross round my neck and nowhere near getting sorted, and its all a big fat mess!

    That was a lovely thing to do TMD. When we went to N Ireland it was bf's grans 90th birthday;his sister got bit upset cos it might be the last time they see her...
    I do think about that every year I don't go to Finland too, my granparents are not that old yet, mid 80's and late 70's but you just never know...

    Oh, that sucks CAFC. That's a lot of money as well if you needed it. Good luck with things.

    Weather not as nice as yesterday yet, but will be off to the beach soon. Went to see ex last night to get my stuff, but more off that on my own thead.
