    I suppose it is to be expected that you will feel abit off after 'loopy juice' but I so wish you didn't. I wish your body was like your mind and took it all so 'matter of factly'...............You positive attitude is inspiring.

    Hope your cough clears off to cough land very soon xx

    I agree......although I also know I would find it very difficult to do myself :o

    Am afraid that will never happen...I do look after me though..MSe is inmy blood and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel with the mortgage and then poor DH won't work so many hours.
    I try to get him to cut down but he won't so the best thing is for me to manage the money as best I can as he's got the bit between his teeth with the mortgage as well
