    Just watching some news footage of the tsumani on BBC. Frightening, it's just unstoppable. Watching a house or something on fire as it rushes along with the water :(:(:( Makes me grateful to live where I do.

    Julie - have a nice time tonight, you sound very glam :D

    I'm back from dentist, and it wasn't too scary :) He has given me antibiotics which should kick in within 48 hours. Finger's crossed this will sort it. I have also registered with local dentist now and have appt for 10days time.

    Afternoon all!
    Started doing flylady for the first time and I love it. Like someone doing a meal plan for me, so I just do it and don't have to think!

    DH off today, so dinner when the kids come home is an Algerian thing called shokshoka. Sort of wee bits steamed pasta with tomato and beef sauce and veg steamed. We all love it.
    Might make some spring roll for later as a snack.

    Have to say Amazon customer service is fab! I bought my elderly dad a milk frother as he loves to make his own cappucino-type coffee at home. His only real treat to himself. He told me the other day that after about a week, it fell to pieces, and he threw it in the bin!!! So I couldn't return it for a refund or replacement.
    I wrote a polite email to amazon, just to tell them that it had broken, just for the record sort of thing.
    I got an email from them today to say they had sent another one out to him, first class!!!! How brill is that? Made my day, and my Daddy will be so happy.
    Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These
    (he points to some plastic cows on the table) are very small; those (pointing at some cows out of the window) are far away...

    Not seeming to get much chance to post at the moment but still OSing away quietly in my own little world!

    Work is quite mad and I'm working tomorrow which is unusual then have my oldest friend coming for dinner and a sleep over - cue lots of nattering and wine. Have a nice HM menu planned as imho she eats too much processed food so want to make it special but healthy.....ish!!

    WM and DW been on and the WM is on again. Am enjoying it being a bit more spring like - just been watching the birdies outside 'flirting' with each other :D

    Have a nice end of the week everyone
