    Hello lovelies -sorry to post and run again. I promise I will read the fred as and when I can. Hugs and much love to all. Hope LL had a fab time at Glasto and toots - you look after yourself. Just a couple of pictures I promised the other day of Chloe. The first one of her on DD2 has my hand on her and Vicky the midwifes ar£e in full view - but hey I was crying too much!

    She has been unsettled today and DD2 has cried - but just feeding at the moment. I felt awful leaving them to go to work; but I had to, though Icam home a couple of times to see how they were. 2nd time both crying so I took Chloe, ran DD2 a bath, got her in it, put baby down as she was asleep by then, made DD2 a sandwich and got all her meds out (6 lots in all) and then had to leave. It's all new to her, but she has done so well and we are proud of her. She is a lot happier now we are home.

    Much love and hugs to all of you as usual. I WILL catch up tomorrow and post tomorrow xx

    :hello:LadyL glad to see you returned safely - was wondering what time you'd be home. Hope you didn't get too hot at Glastonbury - I didn't envy you being in a tent in that heat! Moon would've been really jealous that Kylie Minogue made an appearance - he loves her! Did you see your favourite singer? Don't know if you will be free at all on Thursday, as I know you said you may be going to see DS, but I'm not working because it's my birthday, so if you want to catch up at any point during the day, give me a text or something.

    Well I did some more of my list. Good news is, I had 2 bits of really good mail today - my new bank card came, and my certificate to say that I'm finally a qualified teacher (only took them since December :rotfl:). So, as my card came through, I was straight into town to look around the shops and to pay off a bit more of the wedding (only another £1342 left of my share :eek:). Got a lovely bikini in warehouse's sale for £14 reduced from £24. Will see if I can find it online and post a piccie.

    Potato salad turned out ok, although I think it would work better with new potatoes rather than ordinary ones as the ones I had disintigrated a bit. I am very stuffed though now after that and the veggie chilli wraps followed by an ice cream.

    I'm working tomorrow so have packed up my lunchbox ready. Need to work out what to wear - it's really difficult, as on supply you never know if you're going to end up doing PE, so I usually have to wear trousers, but it's quite hot then.

    Well list update is below. Hugs to all who want or need them, and love the photos carlsberg.

    Carlsberggal and DD - well done and congratulations - gorgeous pictures of a lovely baby

    Boddy - well done on being mortgage free

    Horrible neighbours are living in a house that has twice been refused planning permission to change from 1 house to 2 [letter came through today about it - fate or what!!] so we are going to object yet again and have rallied more neighbours to join the cause as there are everal who are as fed up as us

    Flying - done a bit but will do moer tomorrow - scouts honour me Lord

    There are showers forecast for here for tomorrow - what a relief it will be to cool down a bit
