    You haven't put a downer on it at all, that's what friends, even online stranger friends, are for.

    On a lighter note, I've just noticed I sent you HOGS instead of HUGS! :rotfl:

    I hope that didn't come across as flippant, I certainly never meant it that way. Apologies of that annoyed anyone, and please don't respond to this message either.

    Beemuzed - :grouphug: I can only imagine the pain you must be feeling. My thoughts are with you and your family. You haven't put a downer on the thread at all like someone else posted that's what friends are for even if it's only us online ones!! Hugs or Hogs (whichever you fancy) whinging their way too you x

    Anniestar - How strange that man just walking in!!! That would have freaked me out sooooooo much too. Hope you're ok.
    PS ... and I too think you've made enough cakes now :D

    Beemuzed thinking of you x

    I never know whether to ask in these situations or not as some people like to talk about lost loved ones and some can't but if you'd like to tell us about him I for one would listen, If you wouldn't then thats ok too x

    Making some travel arrangements to go home in July and I remember the football starts in June so I said to DH 'When's the world cup final?' his reply 'At the end'. I really despair some days.... *rollseyes*

    Evening everyone

    Has been a lovely day here, shame I had to work though.

    Bought ds2 some new school trousers, he just seems to be growing so fast. Collected all paperwork (statement etc) frm ds2 school to take with me when visiting new schools next week. Picked presciption up and went to Mr T to do a bit of shopping.

    Not much os again here apart from usual washing, cooking etc. Lunch was tuna salad. Tea was cheese omlette and salad as ds2 was at his friends.
    Need to send out evening invitations for wedding, so need to write them tonight. Got to post wording and music choices tomorrow to register office. So much to do so little time.

    Beemuzed - Thinking of you and your family.
    Diva - Hope you are feeling a little better.
    Morwenna - You looked fantastic, wishing you every happiness together.
    NPM - Sending ((Hugs)).

    Enjoy the rest of your evening. Hugs to anyone that needs/wants one. Take Care.

    Lynne
