    Morning all

    28 for me please Shaggy!

    Off out shortly to take Piglet to a little friends birthday lunch at pizza hut. Parents aren't staying, which I'm not particularly happy about (long story re mother thats running the party!) so will be parked directly opposite the restaurant door, sat in the car reading a book!

    Have good Sundays all!

    It's blimming freezing there. Hope you had a duvet in the car to keep you warm. :eek:

    Hi everyone :wave:

    Sorry I have not been about and please will no-one mention the word SOFA to me :p

    My lovely Ds completed on his house and he is constantly ringing about the s word ;) hours yesterday and until after midnight too..............

    Just keep googling was his advice, when I tried to protest that I had other things to do, well it just made not a jot of a difference :( I really do have a splitting headache, thats really, really splitting.

    Also getting down to help him is turning into a nightmare, went to Blackpool with the aged P's last weekend and got a call from my friend that our manager has had our branch taken from him and we are merging with a larger office.

    So tomorrow I am on my 5th manager in 8 years :( Also Mr Budgie has now been offered a full time job at a different home :j Brilliant news but he now has to hopefully secure a few days to get down to our Ds.

    Everything was all sorted before and now we have to sort it out with the new bosses :(

    I could go on I really could ;) But I just don't have the time.............

    So hugs to you all and Shaggy my love I am on 21 af days please sweetheart and thankyou so much for keeping score I will still be Tf in Feb please as it seems to be working for me. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxx

    Hope everyone is ok? Dear Lurky thanks for the message and I have been misplaced, I mean how rude :rotfl:

    Hope all is ok with you and the Dear Lurky Clan matey? Stay Lucky (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Darling Jo hugs hunny and I shall quickly pop into the diner for a coffee on the go. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Oh and hope our lovely Fay is ok too? xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Ok rockin and rollin here must dash, but everyone take care and well done on all of your achievements this month :T

    God Bless
    Budgie xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Cherish the ones you love and travel back on the road that brings you home :)

    Hi everyone! Sorry not to have posted in a bit, but was so busy last week with farm visits, an exam and then away with the TA all weekend... But I would like to report I completed last weeks mon-thurs challenge (or was it sunday to thursday?)

    And also, I think I'm up to 26/28 AFDs! :D

    Weekend was so tiring, and cold, sleeping outside in -4 is so fun... especially when one has to get up at 5.15! Early night tonight, in the warm!

    After another AFD I think I'm up for the Sunday to Thursday challenge please. I've had more energy today and my purse has certainly noticed the difference already :D
