    SRM, as someone has said, make the most of the time. Try and have nice memories before the morphine really kicks in big time.

    I'm sorry to hear your news too Bun.

    Lou, I think the GP needs checking for dementia as his memory also seems to be going.

    I am a bit !!!!ed off - potential tenant was supposed to be round at 11. I've been cleaning for a day. They cancelled half an hour before they were due to come round. Grrrrrr :mad:. Did go and get a chocolate cupcake which is maybe not the best coping strategy.

    Have rejigged my CV for bar work and will be pushing that in the next week.

    Now I'm off to spend a voucher in Next. See if that cheers me up!

    Luc, just put all the beads on the table and have a play about with colour etc


    Its all seed beads and crystals pretty much. I like doing weaving and netting things but don't know what to make.... I did some lovely netted tealight holder covers but can't find the pattern as they make lovely stocking fillers...

    Like the sound of them Luc - did you take any photos? I am sure you will get going soon - would love to see some of your work though. Hope Nathan wasn't the last one "naughty mummy" Billie x
