I do not understand this....
Radley....Bag = thrillness and joydom in Valliland - and not (yet) a Radley bag to be seen, although is an afficionado and is regularly dragged OUT of Radleys by DD - can't even afford a key ring *sigh*no; louder SIGH*

Valli I think there's a Radley outlet at MacArthur Glen Junction 28 - tempted?? :rotfl:

Soappie many congrats on the job, I hope you love it.
Dusty my two really like Ace Ventura
Vanilla lots of hugs. You & DH really aren't the ones in the wrong. Good news for your DD tho, hope she's much happier soon.

Vanilla - great to hear it's being sorted out xx
Ajmoney - can see why you're so frustrated about it!!! Hope it's all sorted quickly tomorrow.

DS off school with laryngitis (sp??), he's proper poorly bless him, doesn't even want chocolate:eek:....lots of lucosade, calpol etc. Took him to the docs to make sure it's not gone to his chest and he does need an inhaler whilst he's bad. My throat sore and voice crackling. DD phoned to see if she could miss windband and come home as has a sore throat. Good news is - we get it over and done with before Christmas. Just hope we're all ok for Sunday when we're going to the Bridgewater Hall for a christmas concert. What'll be, will be!

Going to s/s slowly.

Ooooh nearly forgot.....doorbell rang. Went to answer it. Our lovely vet wanting a word. Asked me if I thought it was too soon for DD to have two baby squeakers who've been abandoned. One is absolutely scared stiff. If you pick it up and put it down again it won't move...it's frozen in fear. The other is a naughty little monster. How could I say no? He gave a big grin and got them from his car!!!! Bit early in an ideal world but I know my daughter will really be good with the scared one. My son loves the mad one!! The vets clubbed together for a bag of goodies for the gp's too - woodshavings, treats, food and an invitation for DD to go and spend a few hours there one day. She'll be thrilled.

Right, now to s/s xx
