    hiya everyone,

    sat typing whilst a thunder and lightening storm is going on - boys are stirring in bed its so loud!

    not much OS today, ending up having tea in town as had to go and get DS2 new trainers and Ds1 a new raincoat - they must have had a growth spurt in the past couple of weeks! Have manage to change the beds and hoover upstairs, couldnt work out how to change the top bunk beds so OH had to do it.

    watching martin lewis on BBc2, their in Liverpool - thats as close as Birkenhead gets to being on the tV!

    Take care everyone x
    Mum, wife and dinnerlady!

    RR If you can grab it take the number of the ring and either ring RPRA, or it might have a wing stamp with owners name/tel no, or a ring with owner details on....Good luck x


    Ok I caught it :j, its in a box at the moment with a bit of food and water, we have reported it online, but cant get hold of anyone on the phone, its all office hours, do you think it will be ok in the shed tonight and tomorrow during the day ?

    I amsure the shed would be fine cool and quiet. He will be quite stressed out so not tooo much fussing. I think they are quite resilient.

    And main reason for again this eve is that DD3 has accidently poured nail varnish remover all over the desk top key board and on my lovely desk. It has stripped instantly all the finish off both. Then I found remainder of same cotton wool on my leather couch!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
    Too say I'm a bit upset is an understatement. She is besides herself but I am pleased with DH cos he didnt shout just gave her THE LOOK and left the room.
    N ot sure what to do now?

    redruby - sorry only just got back and saw the post re the pigeon.

    the pigeon will be fine in a box in the shed. When you get to speak to someone tell them you are a non fancier and they will get it picked up asap. PM me here or on Facebook if I can help anymore.
    Do what you love :happyhear

    We'll have to think of some other nameless conections. She played tennis at sports day,

    The wind has suddednly got very strong here had to shut windows now its too hot again, cant win eh!!

    My DD thinks that I am fruitloop, and "we live in a modern age dont we mum" she is struggling with my trying to be thrifty with all things esp HM horse poo plant feed, and has just quoted me on facebook "dont waste the poo it's precious" the thing is all the folk on here will appreciate my concern when DD1 started to pour my HM plant feed all over patio instead of in the pots. !!!
