    Good luck for tomorrow :T
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I hope your Viva goes well. Cheery's advice was spot on and I'm sure you'll do fine.
    But how can you know what you want till you get what you want and you see if you like it?

    Good luck Stripes! :j

    As for Petrol - might be worth filling up at Perth on the way through - 129.9 for unleaded at the moment. Diesel was cheap in Berwick the other week too so I guess unleaded will potentially be as well.

    Just a quick visit to wish you all the luck for your viva Pippi...and afterwards hvve a great trip south if I miss you before you go.

    Eyes are feeling a bit better today (yesterday now...must get to bed soon :o!) Went to my quilting club...had a good time, though I had to stop every so often due to my eyes hurting.

    Oh I wish this weather would make up its mind and rain!! We need a big thunderstorm to clear the air...there are some nearby as I can hear them, but nothing close enough yet. It's gone midnight and still 17 degrees outside...almost bearable now though...glad we're not London-way!

    DH and DS2 fancy a trip to Hoy when we are up...and I haven't even show them your piccies yet Pippi!!!

    Right off to bed...running out of steam now! :rotfl:
