    The end is in sight................ (imagine hand to forehead) .............I can see the light at the end of that there tunnel Mrs Daffs.
    What's that? You need a cup of tea? (said in a 1940s dapper Mr Daffs voice over type voice)

    OK, I will put the kettle on, you keep your head down and we can feed tea intravenously until tomorrow night.

    Loving the food menus by the way. I had crunchie biscuits for my tea, couldnt be bothered cooking. Bit like Bridget Jones, only you would be Dr Bridget Jones in a couple of weeks :)

    You lot really are keeping me going, I hope you realise that! :j :j :j :j :j

    Just stuck a goats cheese pancake on, got rather peckish and another bowl of museli just wasn't going to do it :rotfl: (I guess it's still a pancake though, d'oh! :rotfl:)

    Leaving the conclusions for tonight. There's still a couple of bits left, but I also need to get to the end of the other chapter, and my pace is slowing considerably now, so moving on to something a little easier. :coffee: :coffee:

    It's not a coat you need, it's those little pom pom things...
