    NMS do you have a syringe? to make sure he is not dehydrated and has fluid little and regular i would use the syrings 5-10ml every 5 mins. This way its enough to help but not enough to make him sick again! get well vibes your way!!

    my OH is off to hosp :(he got something in his ear a few weeks ago and the doctor has syringed it a few times with nothing working, he has lost the hearing and again today as he went to stand he fell over? so he is heading to A&E as his doc is usless and he hasnt changed to the one here yet?

    HI Tia im washing carpets and am bored already!

    Hi Aless :)
    did the fairy post ever arrive? I've totally forgotten when I sent it :doh: but Do you think the 99p paddling pool would be cheap to post? did it have a brand name on it? I'm after something little for short sunny spells because the pirate ship takes about an hour to pump up and more to squash back down and pack away.

    And the fairies here would be happy to pass on a 99p paddling pool if they're still there next time I'm on the high street (within the next week, is that okay?) :D. It's only about 2-2.5ft diameter and no particular brand...I've thrown the packaging away so can't give you specifics I'm afraid :o.

    I got a little 3 ring one from Asda for £2.50 the other day if that helps....

    Thanks Tia & Caz - I've passed on on the syringe tip to my Mum. I'm just trying to keep myself occupied until I can go home. Only another hour and then I'm going to shut the office so I can meet OH & Liam for the appointment - I don't think I've been very productive today.

    Caz - hope your OH gets sorted at A&E - even if it's only so he can hear you telling him to get his dirty shoes off your nice clean carpets :D

    Tia - you want anymore ironing?

    Not the Rug Doctor one by any chance? Was wondering if they are any good, I was looking at it in Homebase the other day. Need to clean the living room and stair carpet once OH has finished making a dust cloud while stripping the house!

    We're having sausage, mash, mushy peas and gravy for dinner! I'm on gravy-making duty :D

    And my bed slats were supposed to arrive overnight but the carrier apparently can't guarantee it. But they've been located and should turn up soon!!!!!
