  • Morning lovely ladies

    I'm in - thanks for the thread FCC x

    I'm shattered, DH was on call ALL weekend and did 20 hour days on friday, saturday and sunday... Oh and it's only the practice run. All well and good to say I could go to bed - but it just doesnt work like that :(
    Blurgh!

    At least we changed the sheets last night before bed :) Flipping pup is STILL moulting and fluff gets in the bed. Yuck yuck yuck :(

    Wow I must be tired - look at me whinge! :rotfl:

    Note to self: Right Suck it up girl! Go get on with it!

    I have a list of phone calls to make which is going to be difficult :( So they're each a frog. Perhaps I should start with them.

    Hope you guys are all doing well today :)

    Have opened the PC tower and hoovered it out on the advise of the guy in PC world who was good and told me what to do and saved me £40! I have discovered that its full of rust... :( so looks like im going to have to buy a new tower soon which on top of the move expense I could really do without.
