AJmoney - Please get the family to talk to OH's dad when they go in. Even if he is asleep he still might be able to hear. It might be comforting for them to think that he might be able to hear them as well.

Hadn't thought about that, what a good idea thanks x

Back from our emergency shopping trip and I am exhausted. Money decluttered on this dress http://www.johnlewis.com/226697/Style.aspx which looks beautiful on. Annoyingly I am now behind on cleaning but that had to be done.

Triker

We have (yet another roof fixer guy) coming on tuesday to see if he can fix the leaking bathroom roof.

If he can then we can look at getting the half fallen down ceiling plastered and the avocado green suite finally retired out to the 'this is a shi te bathroom for the elderly and badly coloured suite home'. Wish me luck girls.:wave:

I dont know whether to be in a good mood or not!! I spoke to the CAB Manager about applying for a post in a neighbouring bureau. I wanted feedback because I wasnt shortlisted for a post in my bureau. Turns out I was shortlisted and the interview is tomorrow, but in Galashiels, 33 miles away. Argh!!! So I need to prepare for interview and submit another application. I'd better crack on...oh and the house is looking lovely. OH has been busy!
