    No problem, I couldnt remember if I had posted it and I was just heading out with Moo who was barking at me so couldnt go back to check.

    How is the writing coming along?

    evening everyone, for the ones that asked about onions I didn't make it to post office on saturday so I'll post them on wednesday when I'm off. Promise i've not forgotten. Getting back on track with my second job, £20 earned this week but with OH now not working again (contract ended) every penny counts! I did weekly shop today at Aldi's, well seen OH doesn't normally come with me as he was shocked by some of the prices! He couldn't believe how expensive things are getting.

    Pippi, hows things? Sorry not spoken properly in ages. We're thinking about taking a trip up your way over the summer.

    Writing writing writing

    Not much advance made on end bit of literature, but all chapter looked at reference checked and discussion almost finished. (about a page left to write but am brain dead)

    OH and i reckon I can have a draft thing ready for them on Tue if I really try or Wed - given how often I've been away and that still gives them a couple weeks til deadline - I think thats all thats acheivable. WHich gives me time to fathom any other changes I need to make.

    Hugs to all

    Uni - hi - will be alot more on here after this is in.

    :) ace you're thinking of heading up north. Let me know when - you never know it might tie in with a bit of holiday house sitting and chicken feeding if you'd be up for that..........?

    hey pippi
    so close now! just have to keep your focus...

    I am back again in the UK for a funeral, so am interested in what the weather is doing over there, so I know what to pack to wear.

    Unixgirl, glad your OH went with you to the shops, will the shock of the prices change his outlook at all?

    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
