LW - I agree with the others, your knowledge is essential to those you are meeting. Take a deep breath and go for it. I was crippled by shyness as a child and can still remember the terror of new people and places. I really feel for you ((((Hug))))

Jue - Well done for going to the Drs - I hope they give you something to make you feel better.

Dusty and AnW - PC is Problem Child (I didn't feel it was PC to say Revolting little g**).

Can I ask a daft question? I haven't been abroad for a very long time. OH has a conference in Paris in May (lucky so and so) - his passport expires this month.

Do you need a passport to travel within the EU nowadays??

Have a feeling we are going to need to find money for that too. Do you think he could claim as an expense :rotfl::rotfl:

LW- My thoughts are with you. I know it will be hard for you but I also know you can do it.

In my HHC I finished off the bedroom and cleaned the fronts of all the cupboards (there are loads, I'm still trying to get DH to agree to get rid of them - hideous things!) and I have also cleaned the en-suite (deep clean). It took 45 minutes - now I have to do the school run then some ironing (I can catch up with NCIS )

DW done

had a delivery of wood today so we can make some raised beds at the weekend, then can start growing some veggies.
