    I've won two tickets to see Mumford & Sons next week.

    I could be decluttering some spare time in entering them instead of being bored - three lipglosses, two tickets to Ronnie Scott's, a CD and now these tickets - all in about 6 weeks.

    I'm pretty chilled about it really.

    Honest.

    Mudders so pleased you are home. Now I'm thinking what would I say with that dilemma. Given the opportunities and that its for 1 year and not permenant - I'd have packed his bag already..... Unwell or not that's quite an opportunity to be able to finish your mortgage then enjoy the many years after with much less stress. DP decided not to go when he was offered because it was in Iraq and for 2 years but a safe area, he'd go for a year no problem. I think of how fast the last year has flown, we're off back to the opticians next week and it feels like yesterday.
    Pigpen - thinking of 'you and I'll leave a fuzzy hug in the corner should you change your mind. Men are complex critters aren't they
    Dippy hugs for you both
    Vanilla - big fluffy hugs for you my honey xx also happy birthday
    Thrifty happy birthday to you too
    Poohbear will keep your DS in my thoughts x
    Sammiell great news

    Well a busy couple of days, but I've still managed to keep on top of downstairs and the laundry. DPs been out every day helping his friend who is helping him/providing tools to do our car when the jobs he has on are finished, this stops him spending £1.5k on a welder, see I said I would think of something!

    I'm now finished my IPS training which will give me more support in supporting parents and CAF training done so that's anoter box ticked. Studying is in full belt with an assignment due tomorrow so any spare time has been spent reading, making notes etc. So with that in kind and a pool viewing/assessment in the morning then coffee with an old school friend and her Mum (who was a friend/drinking partner as we got older) straight after I need to gather some more notes so I can thrash out an assignment when I get home

    Love and hugs for you all xxxx
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200
