    I finally dragged my ever increasing sorry backside out for a run around the block. Some way to go before I look even remotely "athletic" but hey, just for today I made the effort :D

    Gonzo - sorry to hear that the end of your week has been ghastly. Just a thought though, I know you can't go to the christening by you can still be godfather. Someone can stand in for you at the service as a proxy. So surely you could still fulfil your duties thereafter? Just a thought. Hope the weekend pans out better and that FIL is diagnosed shortly.

    not quite sure yet but at least we will know more soon, just so glad we didnt have to wait over the weekend for the extra tests, ok i now owe a couple of people return favours but will all be worth while if we find out what it is and hopefully he can be discharged tonight.

    got everything crossed at the moment

    i did suggest this but she's a funny old cow and wants to godfather to actually be there, and although in reality i can go myself it seems a bit mad to have a 10 hour round journey just for a 20-40 min ceramony (since shes being christened on the Sunday i would have to leave earlyish to do the 5 hour drive back home to get to work on the monday)

    no major deal really yes bit dissappointed but hey i am sure she will end up having at least one more child, personally think she might turn into a baby factory as she loves babies and hates work but we will see what happens when shes got 2 little toddlers.... bad enough having one most of the time
