    Should I stay or should I go now?
    if I go there will be trouble
    if I stay there will be double.

    That's a refrain that sticks in my head, and often describes a situation to a T

    Happy birthday to DD, don't forget to breath Mrs PG

    Hugs

    Crazy crazy weekend, still not really come up for air.

    Tea and cake went on until midnight ! :eek: That wasn't in the agenda at all. Most people were well behaved though and no family arguments blew up. I did though have to knock up a curry mid evening as clearly noone was going anywhere and we were dying of hunger.

    DD1 had an amazing birthday, people dropping by with cards and gifts since Friday night for her. She enjoyed a lovely Chocolate Birthday Cake ( her absolute fave) courtesy of a very lovely friend.

    Girls are exhausted, danced all day Saturday, family Saturday night and danced all day yesterday and show in the evening. She came on stage for her bow in a huge 15 birthday badge and everyone sang her happy birthday ! Mr PG and I managed to sneak in and watch them :o. Noone was on the doors checking tickets so we wandered in, took our seats and enjoyed the show ! :o What the heck !!! Times are tough !! :rotfl:

    Dragging them out of the door for school this morning was a nightmare, particularly when DD2 remembered in amongst everything that she had cooking first lesson and needed bacon ( cooked before school as they didn't have time in the lesson ) and bagels. I then had a mad 8am dash around the local shops in search of said bagels while they got ready. Water was cold again this morning.:(

    I have skim read all of your messages over the weekend, I have alot going on today so will try and get back later. .

    The party sounded good, did I miss the Gin Mrs B....oh and ACDC, Love them !! Kings of Leon as well, great for loud dancing around and singing !

    Thanks for top tips re the boiler cover..... I will be back about that one later.

    £30 made on Eb@y over the weekend.:)

    "Company that will not Pay " had the audacity to call us last night while we were at the show asking us to work for them last night and today. Naturally once again the answer was a very firm no. Another two week job came in on Saturday but again we had to turn it down as we are already busy. The phones are ringing , thats gotta be good.

    Mr PG now away this week, until Friday, lots going on here with the girls etc so think it will be a very busy one. I will stick with my Mrs Angry head rather then Dribbling Wreck Head and smile through the madness. :D

    I am bit stacked up today but will try and get back again later.

    Hope you are all well xxxx
