    Morning all, hope everyone is good?

    Am off work waiting for my new washing machine to be delivered. I have had no machine for 4 weeks and with 3 small children my home just looks like one of those recycling centres, pils of unwashed clothes everywhere. Roll on the ironing mountain!

    Hope everyone has a good day.
  • Morning everyone,

    Where has the morning gone?

    Claire great news about your son.

    pooky, enjoy the walk.

    Elliemoo, you poor thing not having a washing machine for weeks.

    Morning to everyone else and welcome to the newbies.

    I'd better get on with some work.

    Know how your feeling Ellimoo, I've had wet bedding to contend with every day this week and trying to dry normal washing in this weather is a pain, just about caught up now.

    I don't envy you ploughing through that lot :)

    Lmc yes I'm glad they worked or he wouldn't have taken then again

  • Morning all,been absent for a while,but back now..........
    Thanks to all who sent me their best wishes over the last few weeks, I even had a lovely card from one of you-you know who you are :Axxxxx
    Twas a difficult time, and there is such a huge hole in my life that'll take some time to fill, there hasn't been a day gone by in the last 13 years that I didn't speak to her at least once a day-my first thought now is "Ooh,must tell J that...".....then I remember............
    Still we gave her a fab send off,I did the church flowers and between us we catered the wake,a lovely homespun feel that she would have appreciated.
    Thanks again all , SRM xxx
    Debt-free...and staying that way...

    Glad to have you back SRM....time is a great healer, but things will be very raw for a while yet. I can't imagine losing someone that close to me. Sounds as though you did her proud!
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    great news about your son claire hope this really works for you it can be quite distressing. kids went off to school excited for bonfire night. No dispplay where we live but hubby bought them some fireworks so no doubt they'll be nagging me when i pick them up later asking when he's coming in from work.
