    I have been asked this question at work today

    'Is there ANYTHING you can't do?'

    quite flattering isn't it? 'Yes,' I answered, 'keep a bloke' :rotfl:

    Hi all

    Hope your all well!

    Busy day today at work - dropped and collected my sister today too as we had a drama with her car on Saturday! so Ive had more running around today than usual!

    She broke down on her way to work on Saturday and had to be towed to the garage by the AA on a fixed tow bar - as they turned the corner into the garage, we think he forgot he was towing my sister and didnt leave enough room for her....and he hit a parked car with her car!

    Then he tried to say it was her fault cos she was steering! Yes she was steering but can only steer on the path created by the van!! Anyway - she is now without her car and I now need to deal with a load of hassle we could do without.

    Anyway - Im home now and sproglet is fed so I better go and empty the WM and do something! :)

    Happy Monday everyone!! xx

    Things have got worse with OH so I don't think I'll be around much for a while. I intend to wallow in self pity and descend into squalor for a bit...

    aww hun

    he had such issues though - don't beat yourself up about it. Some people don't know when they're on to a good thing, if you get my drift.

    By all means wallow in self pity but I think you'll totally fail at squalor;)

    Anyway I have to go to Drnfield to get the girls from jujitsu
