Cheri eek to oh dad! Yeah you're both right we need to keep her mind off things - keep her busy too maybe she can make the egg chart!!
Or I'll task her with the hens.totally want to be there for her, I hope she also chills a bit. If she can relax all will be well and dandy
I've put a stuffed dragon in her bedroom! She's welsh therefore the dragon and does have a sense of humour!Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:

Cheery - Brilliant idea!

Can everyone tell it's raining here and I'm being kept out the garden............:rotfl:

love the egg chart plan but you've got to let each chicken pick her favourite colour. But i do worry about poor Einstein how is he going to feel when he's not able to get a star on the chart? you're going to have to find a way in which he can contribute.
Had some fun in the garden yesterday without feeling guilty and it was lovely0 -
Business is never so healthy as when, like a chicken, it must do a certain amount of scratching around for what it gets.

Sorry to hear about your interview Pippi, same here, but happy to believe it is Fate! Onwards and Upwards as EH would say
VR sounds good to me, good luck Keiss!

Ooooo I love Escape to the Country............ even though I have. Mind you that Jules is rather lovely (and he lives near here too). I just watched one on Ceredigion (my current home county) and it helped me remember why I love it. Then I watched one on Cheshire (my last home county) and it helped me to remember why I loved it.Some days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar.

CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0 -
