Afternoon!
Well done Noah! :j
Hope all our kids, and Hester, are settling in ok at school.
Cheapskate, were you a child bride?
Blowing a hoolie here, too. Making carrot and lentil soup to warm us up, and doing a bit of housework, too. I want to make a start on decorating DS2's bedroom this weekend, and need to squeeze another clearout, in.
Hope its all gone well, Wolfy.xx
Bramble, do you want a lift to Monklands? Its really no bother. xxx
Have a nice evening all,

Hi all,
Just went to make a phone call and could hear the BT call minder sound, I had a message on there from the Hosp, it was sent y/day at 3.15 asking me to call them as they have an appointment for me. I called the number and they want me there this Thursday at 11.15.
Only saw the Dr on Friday.
So, Dr Fri, blood test Mon, call from hosp Mon get there for Thurs. OMG :eek:, that's a bit quick !!!
Silly I know, but I burst into tears when I put the phone down, luckly DH came in and gave me a big hug, think he has a cold coming as his eyes were watery.
God I'm scared
Forgive me for being a bit self indulgent but I'm in shock. Not much sinking in even though I have read the thread several times.
CANDYGIRL, I tried to find you on FB but only got people from America or a fictitional person from a book, never mind I'll see the pics on here.
Thank you all for your patience with me at the mo. xx0 -
Evening all
Really blowing here in the way it only can on the south east kent coast. Have spent the time since I got up draught proofing my fireplaces as I don't use either of them. Looked at chimney ballons but can't afford those so have improvised with some plywood and bubble wrap. Have been to homebase and bought shed felt, that's the next job for when we get a dry day. Also bought a thermal blind for my kitchen and bathroom and a curtain rail to hang my back door curtain. Just need to get my drill back from my neighbour now.
LAMEWOLF hope you got on ok today
NPM :j Noah
BRAMBLE have a safe trip.
Right off to make pie and fleece line DS curtains.
Have a good night all

Thank you Jackie:A Candy pm'ed me with her FB name but still couldn't find her. Your right, it could be nothing to worry about, it's just that in my neck of the woods it's a 2 wk waiting list to see the Dr ( only 2 hrs to see a vet!) let alone get an app with hosp. Take no notice of my panicking.
( It's my only weakness x )
OMG, I thought I had pm'ed this, too late now0 -
You panic all you like, for some of us its the only way to cope - I can talk the talk, but cant walk the walk myself, lol.

Hello everyone
Bethebee - a big hug for you, it must be scary but you will be in good hands. Sorry to hear about DD's accident as well - hope she's better too.
NPM - Yay Noah! :j
LW - Hope your appt went well
Molly - hope you're OK
((Hugs)) (and sorry) to anyone I've overlooked and who needs one.
Not much OS going on here today - back to work to face a mountain of paperwork and fight through a general motivation bypass. Hope tomorrow is more productive...
DD1 was back at school today and seems to have had a good day - she loves school anyway, and her new teacher seems nice - phew! Just got to get back into the school routine now (me, rather than her!)
Dinner was left over roast chicken and veg, and pud was HM blueberry muffins. Still plenty of chicken left for [STRIKE]recycling[/STRIKE] using creatively for tomorrow's dinner :T - I have a can of value sweet and sour sauce in the cupboard so might give that a go with some stir fried veg and some rice or noodles. Haven't tried it before but it was uber-cheap so I thought it would be worth a try.
This evening once the munchkins are tucked up I shall snuggle down on the sofa and look through some recipe books for inspiration. I ought to venture into the garden to do the daily harvest of tomatoes (mostly still green - :mad:), beans and blueberries but it's blowing a gale and the rain is lashing the windows so it'll have to wait!
Roll on Friday!

Evening all
NPM - well done Noah!
((((Molly))))Apparantly the quality is not up to much either:rotfl:
Sounds the story of my life! - I'm so over being single at the moment
Horrendously windy here! I got blown over in car park! I've been outside all day too so I'm all cold on the inside, brrrr! Today I was on a training course in Pembroke where we all learnt how to use the Green Gym (an outdoor gym which you can exercise on or do activities on) and the Low Ropes course (an obstacle type course which is a foot off ground). Still need to be observed leading a session on them before we can all be signed off, but that'll be a doddle as we use it 4 times a year minimum. Fun day, although some activities set off my vertigo.
OOoh talking of vertigo, the specialist will see me in 2 weeks time, gotta pay to go private but it'll be worth it.
I'm sooooo annoyed with BT :mad: you may remember they cancelled my internet too early in July before I moved. Well when they re-set it up they created a new account in error so i was billed twice. I rung up to sort it out and was told it was an error and to ignore 2nd bill/account. But they have now sent me a red bill for it. I spoke to them yday and was meant to have a callback today after they investigated but no phonecall :mad:. Not got energy to call them tonight though.
OS wise - not much, got lots of YS stuff in Asda though - pineapple, mango, 3 x boiled rice packets, rolls and indian bahjeesall at 29p!
Have a good evening all

Really pleased that you have an appointment Flutterby xxI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
Beth....try not to worry too much.....there are protocols in place in the hospitals where anyone with certain symptoms such as weight loss have to have their appointments organised within a certain timescale. At ours we were not allowed to leave anyone longer than 2 weeks from the initial appointment.......it doesnt mean there is something urgently wrong with you:o
Please do not think you are being indulgent....it must be very worrying..feel free to come on and talk about it all you like...we are all here for you.
I hope they have given you all info and instructions for Thurs....please PM me if you are unsure about anything lovey xx0
