    Oh thats so annoying isnt it 3dogs. Fingers crossed its been handed in but you know what some people are like. I hope it wasn't expensive and filled with lots of photos and personal things.

    God kit you were lucky with that person handing your money in!!!!

    I'm never having that wagamammas again, my bowels havn't been right since! Still don't want to eat anything grrrrrrrrrrr. Pub last night was awesome! We were in one of the oldest pubs in the country, its small with loads of beams and in this little cove a band starting playing with a violin, drum, bango, guitar ect. Really atmospheric!

    Have a good sunday everyone, its a lovely mild day again :)

    oooh that's what happened to me too after Wagamama's. Reckon the spices were too spicy. PS One is opening up in Gunwharf by me but i shall give it a wide berth.

    Susan will be on this afternoon.

    Nice to find an old pub. Some great old one's near where i used to live.

    Kit, what were you doing awake at that time!

    I am just watching re-runs of "The Good Life", that was a great program! That was frugal living!

    Tell us more about this person bringing your money and credit cards back - why did the buy you dinner and have a barbecue?

    Oh his name is Ezzi he is a photographer and marketing person for one of the London universities. He was a darling. So kind. He always works at the fashion shows and goes to great places and puts pictures up to cheer me up. He made me feel very welcome and was very kind to me. There are some nice one's about!!!

    He wouldn't let me buy a meal to say thanks or take a reward. A proper Angel. He was a muslim and knew from my ID (in my wallet) that i was a christian and was sooo kind to me. Dont believe all the garbage about islamic people being terrorists. He was a darling.

    I was hypo for most of the night. Stupidly I ate a packet of bombay mix, feel so queasy today am just taking it easy. Can't cope with much.It might be made with butter which i am allergic too but it was very spicy and I can't do spices. Silly me.

    Not all Muslims are terrorists. It is the fundamentalists and the extremists that are terrorists. I have lots of muslim friends and have done for years.

    Hiya guys - thanks for all the lovely words of support - it really helps to know you are all there for me - love ya lots

    Had a nice long sleep - Mr 3Dogs rang at 10 am brother had to bring the phone up to me in bed and he is not doing well again at the car boot - there's just not the people about - still he has paid his £40 storage fees and £6 pitch fee and had a little over and a dealer he was waiting for may have arrived by the time he finished

    I got up about 11.30 or so, and Kit, the darling that she is, rang at 12 as promised so had a good chat with her which cheered me up and she passed on an exciting offer from Steve ........... ;);)

    I have to wait until tomorrow when the lost property office opens to find out if my phone was handed in

    if the exciting offer from Steve is the one I was thinking of..... :D

    Pleased to hear you have cheered up a little.

    Have been thoroughly spoilt in that have had a lie in until 8.30am, breakfast cooked and DH has had DS all day until he goes out later, so have been able to watch Smallville on TV and play Bingo :D

    Went to friend's birthday party yesterday, that was good fun, until DS lost his shoes :mad: annoyed as he has only 1 pair. Unlike his friends who have more than 1 pair! Had visions of wellies until I could take him to buy a new pair! Which wouldn't have been until Wed!

    turns out when all the boys were playing football, he had taken his off, left them very neatly on the grass, side by side, and the other boys had thought it was fun to throw them in the bushes!
