    Afternoon All

    I have just jumped on the computer because I can't watch poor Andy Murray getting trounced by Nadal :cry:
    I would so love to see him win but I don't think he will today he is already 2 sets down
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones that let in the light

    Afternoon all

    (((hugs))) to N9eav and Lowesy

    Hockeyduo - congrats on becoming a teacher! I'm starting a PGCE in Sept and can't wait! :D

    I had a rather topsy turvy day at work. Spent an hour in the office catching up on paperwork, then off to the country park with the work kids to do dome First Aid training, then after lunch back to office to sort bits out, and then went to buy a new fridge for our remote office (used Quidco to get me some cachback ;) )!

    I'm now home, ready to settle in for the evening with a few drinks, HM pizza and wedges. I'm watching Murray [STRIKE]lose[/STRIKE] play tennis. I rooting for him but won't hold out too much hope as he's 2 sets down at moment.

    Have a good evening all

    :hello: Ooh, hello & welcome back! Whereabouts in Fife are you? OH lived in Kirkcaldy for 20+ years & has family still up there....

    Without giving it away too much (pupils on the net:eek:) I am on the banks of the Firth of Forth not too far from where Gordon Brown lives!
    ;)

    We have been here for just over a year now and love it.

    Currently rooting for Murray and praying for the big Scot to fight back. It's about time we had some home grown talent in the final Lol!

    Got some lovely pork sausages, black pudding and fruit pudding for tea. All are about to go out of date so off to pop them in the Ge*rge F*reman.

    Might do the small pile of ironing later with a glass of wine....:D

    Evening, everyone. :) Just popping in to say hi. It's been a busy day and a little bit fraught towards 5pm when my train home was cancelled! Luckily, both DH and my Dad offered to give me a lift home to save waiting an hour and a half. Bless them both. :)

    Apart from cooking either toad in the hole or sausage sarnies tonight, there's absolutely nothing planned. Which is nice. :) Have a good one!

    Evening all, thanks for the good wishes, my disciplinary is on Wednesday, and I'll try not to mention it again, until then, I promise. Union rep is arranged though.

    Poor poor Coco has come home now from the vet, my poor baby, she is crying and whingeing and very unsettled. They said it all went as smoothly as possible and she should be fine. She had started to get a wee bit of infection in her ears, which they cleaned, and as she had scratched one, they checked it too. I am so glad I ponted it outto them this morning, though I was being over cautious, too. :( So lots of TLC and cuddles from DS1 who is lying on the floor with her right now. Bless! Sorry, I know this isn't the pet board, but you've known my wee dog as long as I have! I feel terrible for doing this to her, even though I know it's for the best. :(

    Lowesy, I am so sorry to hear your most recent news. I have been thinking of you lots honey, and sending lots of positive thoughts your way whilst you've been dealing with things. Glad to see you again. :D

    JackieO, fabulous news about the massage, that will make a good difference to your finances, as well as your wellbeing! :)

    Have a good night everyone, welcome to the newbies and returners.
