  • Good for you, Iris. I do have a bit of a don't-mess-with-me air today!!

    Had a second sweep on Sat, and the pains are coming and going, it is really irritating, I think they're getting somewhere then they stop.

    Bloody well hurt, uterus!!! I am being pretty non-productive, sitting on sofa with puppy cuddling her and telling her how gorgeous she is.

    I'm very grateful (hah!) for the tips on AFoods, I was impressed, got loads of cereal bars for packed lunches and stuff. Think DH will eat bombay bad boy pot noodle??!!

    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x

    I'm sure he will :)

    Well done for keeping calm about the annoying car parking lady. You want to be above reproach :A so she's cast as the naughty one.
    Currently studying for a Diploma - wish me luck :)

    Yes, thanks, and not snap off her wing mirrors like last time I got annoyed (though did have mitigation!!).

    Didn't realise you were a legal executive (is that right?).

    BTW talking halos, I love the advert for Stynx where the angels come down from heaven and smash their halos on the floor!!

  • DH has got probate sorted for his Mum's estate. Clever him. I have to take the mick whenever he mentions taking his oath...he can only say "oaf" so I said I hoped he did his oaf in private...

    Nah, just a Legal secretary so I pick up a fair bit. :)

    Do you think that if you're good and become an angel you automatically become amazingly good looking? If so I'll do a good deed right now :D

    I hadn't realised there was a difference. And there's no "just" about it.

    Yes definitely. the only downside is you have to be dead first;)

  • Got an apology from parking lady. Will be interesting to see if she changes her strategy!
