waiting on welfare to call me back to find out if KH is actually where i think he is and to find out who has been calling them pretending to be me or if KH has totally lost his marbles and is making it all up which i think is the more likely.

Morning All

I've done nothing so far today apart from have a bath, get the kids to school and walk the dog. I did take the shower curtains down before I got in the bath though so I'll put those in the WM in a min. Interview's at 1.30 but I need to be there 10 mins beforehand.

And for those who forgot to put their bedding back on yesterday afternoon - I couldn't be bothered last night and slept in my sleeping bag! I will do it today though.

Anyone fancy joining me for a HHC @ 10.30?

Have a good day all

Hugs

Could you set up a password with welfare so it's more difficult for people to pretend to be you? At least that way, you'll know that someone's making it all up. I bet welfare will say they've never done it before but I bet they have;)

The next full moon isn't till 12th October so that isn't the reason why people are kicking off, I'm sorry to say:D

Anyroad, need to have a weekend in and sorting stuff out, good weather or not! Been out for the last 3 weekends on the trot, so some essentials have been neglected. To Infinity....!
