    Ames, I get what you mean, but for the other assignment I couldn't do, I got given the chance to re-do it and get the same mark I would have done if I did it first time round. But if they don't let me I'm literally going to bung stuff together and not give a toss.

    I do it all because I'm scared.

    Oh Elfen, which Blackberry have you got? I was looking at them earlier as I can upgrade my phone in a couple of weeks.

    Is the email and stuff good on it? I probably should go for the 'keep my phone' option and get a cheaper monthly deal but hmmmmmm gadgets.... :p

    Afternoon all

    Having a real brain-ache of a day - had some more good news this morning which has been very welcome but some stressy news yesterday and the emotional stress from earlier in the week has made my brain go to mush....top it off with a dose of pmt and I think I should be employed by the local waterworks.

    Bunged some chickpeas, cauliflower and potatoes and value curry sauce in the SC earlier which smells divine, shall save that for tomorrow night as DD's requested spaghetti and meatballs tonight....not that I've got round to making it yet.

  • Claire - sending you lots of hugs and I promise you've not killed the chat. I totally agree with the others that words in emails, texts and even on forums can be miscontrude (SP) as we can't see the authors body language.

    Please don't get upset over it. We all love you on here.

    Elfen - that's rubbish about hte assignment!

    I've been chatting to someone on facebook who's doing the same course as me, as we've both got the same marks for the past two assignments. How bizzare!
