    Hi all well my house is looking mighty fine still! Going to have an hour in the garden in a minute now i've just found the padlock key to bring my green bin round!! (In the washing machine:rotfl:) Spent a very pleasant evening with a friend last night who stopped over so just had a really nice chilled day. Feeling more in control of my life and new situation and it really helps everything. Having a bit of a :eek: moment about money but feel calmer about that after posting on DFW board. Going to do some ironing later and have a good hard look at my financial situation including a SOA:eek:

    Hope everyone enjoying this sunny day and having a good weekend. xxx

    Sorry! Football comment - Portsmouth were playing Hull up at the KC Stadium yesterday and we won :j
    Frodders! Frodders!

    Portsmouth are out of aministration and have been sold

    They're safe hopefully

    Are you/have you been celebrating?

    I know:T:j:D:j:T I heard late last night that the club had new owners and then, when I got up this morning for the GP, it was confirmed that Portsmouth Football Club are now trading OUT of administration :D Such a relief!

    Not celebrating as such but very happy!

    Anyway - flying - errrr - I have washed up and I have a load of washing drying out on the line. I have also sorted a pile of papers and paid a couple of bills. I intend to spend the afternoon cross-stitching and watching a film.

    vanilla - Huge hugs; I too think this is now a police matter. If it happened in our school, there would be exclusions and we would more than likely call the police ourselves. I would also complain in writing to the Head, the Governors and the LEA. IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.
