PenPen - I'm sure DD will love Uni; where is she?
TY :A and for all the other welcomes :A DD is at Manchester, staying right in the centreIve spoken to her tonight, and she's been cooking and made lots of friends. She's even found that a boy she was at school with 2 years ago, is in her hall
She bumped into him in the middle of the night when someone set off the fire alarm, and the hall was evacuated *roll eyes smilie*
DS is doing A-levels in double maths, physics and chemistry, and is delighted to no longer have to do French
I'm going to take my book to bed and have an early night.
Sleep well, all:rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0 -
nice to see some familiar faces returning to the fold
Seconded! Wish a few more familiar faces would return!xx
Thanks to all for the thread - Im in - again.... need to fly to keep my feet off the ground and my head above all these boxes :rotfl:
Just back from my neighbours for dinner which was nice and also means we didnt need to feed ourselves :T
Im hoping to avoid as much shopping as possible between now and moving and need to start working down my freezers - between then both, with the exception of milk bread and fresh fruit hopefully i wont need to do much shopping - no shopping for a month should equate to the cost of my moving van
Need to get decluttering and ebaying some more...Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying
