Mumof2 how are you doing?
I'm OK thanks - he left at 8.10 this morning; the flight is at just past 3 this afternoon. We'll stay in touch via Skype but as there's a 7 hour time difference will have to work out the times before calling! The kids were good; we'd prepared them for this quite a while back and they both spent some quality time with them on their own yesterday so had some nice 'Daddy time'.
Lady L, I hope the move goes really smoothly for you and you can rest up. Sending you huge ginormous spoons xx
Sam, well done on calling Childline; that's what I'd have done too. Horrible situation to be in.
Here's my lists:

I'm in, lurking a little but in.
Piggers we had our gutters done, can pass you details on if you'd like...we're awaiting a real downpour to see if its fixed the leaking (and about to fall down at any moment) bathroom ceiling. So far so good with the weekend rain.

Well the saga continues!!
Out of 17 people called we had 5 replies.
1 said to ring someone who had been out and never bothered sending a quote
1 said they no longer do 'that sort of work'
3 came out and gave quotes.. 2 were the same, 1 was extortionate.
1 of them was supposed to be coming Thursday 19th.. and rang this morning saying he can't come until.. 2nd June!!!!!!!!!!!
I am SO f***ed off with this.. is it too much to actually want to have the girls sleeping in a room that isn't going tomake them ill!!!!!!!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0
