Oh Mooloo, you know I think you are doing a fantastic job and I have seen the previous comments you made about them asking for money and you not giving it!!

I just worry that your aches and pains will be in abundance if you keep overdoing things!

I'm not sure whether them sharing is a good or bad thing. On the one hand it sounds so simple to share bills and cut costs etc but on the other I can see them arguing over who will pay what bills and what if that Twin did not pay the bill would the other one be responsible so in effect still paying all the bills.

Also I thought there was an issue recently over friends, I think some of Twin 2's friends had upset Twin 1 but Twin 2 was not bothered/aware and was still friends with them. I understand that due to their learning difficulties they do not regard hurtful comments/actions in the same way we do but would the difference in friends affect anything.

You may verywell be right there.
Luckily it has recently sunk in that the so called Friends were not, and both of them have "banned" them from thier houses. We will of course see, in time, if this actually works.
I see your arguements, and I will have a good talk with them, and put the negatives to them as well.
So if anyone else sees the negatives, let me, know, promise, I may not agree, but I will listen, and take them all into consideration. Lets face it, I am working blind on thier problems half the time anyway!.

Today Molly is unwell, so I am sending my best thoughts and wishes again. Her daughter was to have been helping take DGD to the park today. We are in luck, its raining anyway so she couldnt have done, much better to be taking care of Molly! Its Molly's Birthday on Monday, so we want her well again before then!. Their family are supposed to be going on Holiday on Monday, so fingers crossed they will still be able to.
Biggest of Mooloo's has text me this morning inviting us to go over there for Lunch, so I will be juggling around my plans and taking a trip to see her and the baby. I have the old christening gowns washed and want to see if they are of any use, or if I will use them for somethingelse.
Right time to get my act together and get DGD dressed. She is watching Peter Pan at the moment. Having eaten her way through the nuts, raisins and other bits and pieces supposed to have been for lunch box.! Oh well, as is my usual mantra! Oh well.

Thankyou my friend x

Well I am back from my day with Biggest and DGD2. DGD1 was not too bad, but she did taunt the dog far too much!
The baby was lovely, as usual, and although she is still a little dot, my arm is now telling me.! I looked after her for 30 mins when Biggest took DGD1 to have her fringe done at the hairdressers. (Her friend in the next village).
Biggest seems to be much happier at the moment, and she said that her BF has actually started to talk to the baby now! Big improvement there.

I am now feeling rather sick, I think it must be due to the pain in my neck. (I hope that thats all it is anyway, as I really do not want to be ill, and try to care for DGD1 and myself at the same time.).
The solicitors are chasing up the Social Services once more to get the go ahead for the Guardianship. So we are still no further along. It looks like we will still be in this situation for another 3 to 5 months then. Wonderful.

My car insurance is due for renewal. I went on to Gocompare last night and within 2 minutes of entering my details I had one of the companies, Hastings Direct on the email and the telephone trying to sell me thier insurance there and then.
I was then horrified to hear that the Comprehensive insurance quote that I was given, didnt have legal fees, or cover for medical expenses for me or for my passengers? So I didnt sign up, (they wanted another £56 or so pounds for that). So I said that I would need to read my renewals first to see what I am on etc. The company that I had last year is no longer able to offer me insurance this year? dont do the policy anymore, so I have been given a quote from the Brokers for a company called Highways. Need to do a bit more research, but not sure I can focus on that tonight. But I am sure that the renewal quote has definitely got the Legal, as they break it down, but not sure about the medical for children and passengers. Thats a new one on me as I thought we were all covered. ??
Just another ruse to get more money out of us no doubt. Insurance making it more complecated then necessary in my opinion.

Time to get the tea on. Not that I feel like eating but little lady needs food.

Don't forget to check out the insurance on Quidco for any possible cashbacks.

I did a Gocompare thing, printed off some of the better quotes. Will see if they come up on Quidco. But the offer from the current broker is the better cover at the moment. Its that darned small print on what is covered.!!

Been out and about today. My arm is complaining at me, but at least the neck pain has decreased.:D
DGD has been playing in the mud out the back, as happy as larry.
So there is mud to clear up, and some more washing to add to the pile.
At least with my cover over the line the bits that were out yesterday didnt get soaked in that rain, and were dry this morning.
Have also had time to sew for an hour or so when DGD was seeing her mum. She now seems to always be with her aunty at the same time.

Have you looked at Martin's article on travel insurance? About half way down there's a section on pre-existing conditions. It's exceedingly tedious doing the research: our insurer for last year has declined to cover me this year, and I'm not sure if it's because of the injury itself, because I'm still having physio for it, because I had to have 8 weeks off afterwards, or quite what! They did make an alternative offer, but that doesn't cover any pre-existing conditions, and while I'd be happy with that for me, DH has osteoporosis and despite being symptomless and improving, I can just see him breaking something and no-one being prepared to say it wasn't because of his weak bones!
