  • I don't use buses now but I'm always shocked at the cost, even for the shortest journey. I only used to pay 25p to the town. :rotfl: mind you that was 1986. :rotfl:

    I hope you all feel better soon. Poor DH's ear sounds painful.

    I hate using the buses as it's a ripoff but with kids age 3, 4 and 4 and no buggy it's a must :mad:

    Well had a rotten sleep as Kk started being sick last night at six.........was then sick at 7pm, 8.20pm, 11pm then 2am so far he seems ok he's running about like a looney you would never believe he was poorly :mad: me and Xander on the other hand need matchsticks for our eyes lol xx

    Sent £3.05 towards the Halifax not much I know but car payment is coming out this weekend :( then I need to concentrate and make sure we have enough for the mortgage in two weeks time xx
