    Thanks everyone your are very kind it's a relief, just hope I don't have to go back to the doctors. :) either way I am celebrating this Friday with plenty of wine as its one of the guys at works 50th and we are going to the dogs :beer: I was going to drive by its been a rubbish couple of months and I fancy getting a bit drunk. I am expecting dh to pay for this though as I don't have the money and he never coughed up any spending money towards the cruise :rotfl:

    I enjoyed the film, it was packed though :eek: huge screen and only a couple of spare seats in the front row - even being shown very 15 mins at our cinema day and night, I've never seen so many women in one place before.:rotfl: I must say I prefer an empty cinema with no popcorn eaters and talkers! :o

    Glad scan results were ok :)

    We went to the cinema today to see Bad Moms - only another 4 people were watching it at the same time, so it was great :)

    Hi greent , have not seen bad moms so far , any good?

    Yes Alex the dog tracks are still around although Walthamstow dogs is now blocks of flats (that's where blurs single Parklife was filmed) ŵe uses to go there years ago as our old factory was in Upton Park, now we are in Essex it's a different one, have you ever been to the dogs?

    Hi cath, I shall enjoy and am not driving but getting the bus :beer:

    Things to be thankful for this week :

    Boys seem to be settling in well at college

    Dd trying to socialise and has asked a few people out for lunch at uni - she's not shy! Struggling a bit with it as virtually all the students are foreign and have moved to London weeks ago so have bonded earlier, she's persistent and got two girls out for lunch Wednesday :T

    Dr rang me yesterday, they found a tiny gallstone but it wouldn't cause pain and is nothing worry about, I can go back in he future if I want to for further advice but he sees no reason to and as he scan is clear is not at all concerned. Big relief :)

    Dh very stressed with work (finished 8pm last night, couldn't sleep so went back at 4am) but coping well with it I think considering.

    I can fit in my smaller black skinny jeans and will wear them tonight, ditto fitting into a size 12 biker jacket :D

    It's payday :j
