    evening everybody

    first of all thanks to AnWsMum for keeping you all posted xxx:A thanks to you all for you wishes I am a huge amount better and hoping that whatever has passed by - was a little uncomfortable after my meal this evening but no incidents!!

    Just to confirm what my lovely friend said I am moving because I want to not because I have to so you can stop fretting:A

    However you can start sending stressless moving, good weather, quick packing, and anything else you can think of for saturday:eek: what was going to be a planned, organised move over 2/3 weeks has turned into a manic throw it all together because as of 8pm tonight I move on saturday:eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: circumstances have dictated it so I said 'yes' - goodness knows what it will be like and I wont have the chance to properly pack or declutter or list whats in boxes but what does it matter I will get there in the end.

    My cleaner and I have been there tonight and the kitchen is half cleaned and half filled! Tomorrow is going to be wet here so I will be packing and sorting here I think!

    Thanks for all the lovely comments about post 2 but it was really her Highness's idea to do it that way - its just my post!!
    Anyway I am glad you all approve. :A

    have done a quick skim tonight while speaking to my lovely friend again so my apologies if I have missed you.

    shellysue i am so sorry to hear the news of your Dad - I hope they can sort things out - what a difficult and worrytime for you all (((hugs)))
    pigpen sorry to hear about the LO who died - she is with the angels and free from pain (((hugs)))
    macpep1 I might miss you later in the week so have a brilliant time - and get those cases packed:D
    skintscotslass it is so lovely to hear from you - I hope it wont be long until you get a job - love and hugs and I am looking forward to meeting up again xxxx

    serena glad you have got rid of the stitches and I hope the surgeon was a neat sewer and it heals well )))hugs))))
    happierdays awh honey I know its disappointing but they are looking out for you and wouldnt want you to return until you are 100% have a huge squishy (((hug))) and just think - you get to spend lore time with us:rotfl: and you are off for Easter to roll your egg!!!!:D
    Jassa awh honey thats not good - i am sorry to hear you are still waiting - thanks for popping in and I really hope its not too long before you get sorted out xxx (((hugs)))
    Thanks for allaying lots of our fears. Is Toots moving nearer to you?
    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: well actually 'No' I am moving further north (by about 1/4 mile!!!) I think she is just excited because she knows I will be without a phone for a couple of weeks and will have peace:D;)
    Mudders dont you worry I have stripes on my change of address list - thats partly why I am moving so that stripes can have a proper garden to visit:D hope you are ok honey xxx
    snoozer I am sure you will do just fine - and think of the money you are saving.
    Kazw xxxxx the toots list was needing doing with a view to moving but moving wasnt on the horizon until last Friday but yes a lot of my list will be covered by the move and then I will be creating a new one probably - mostly sorting and filing:eek: very well done with the weight loss - that machine maust be working well and to drop dress sizes as well I think thats fantastic - I hope you are feeling the better for it too (((hugs)))
    cyclingyorkie thats lovely news and your friend must be relieved for the safe arrival - thats 3 new babies I have heard of - grateful and her wee Thomas and my cousins son and partner had a wee boy on saturday.
    Valli yes honey I will do that xx
