    :j Finally pleased to announce my 1st NSD today, thank the lord! after a disatorous weekend of attempted nsd's i finally managed it today, apart from MS expenses tomorrow, i am expecting it to be another, as i will be bringing lunch and dinner to work, then i have 2 Ms Jobs to buy junk which is reimmbursed so no excuse really.

    I did however buy a groupon deal, 750ml of fancy ice cream but this was paid for using groupon credits that i discovered in an e-mail, so techinically it's shopping and FREE which is my favorite kind.

    Catching up after being AWOL this weekend.
    Yup Crackerjack was a favourite in our house, as well as BP...I did send a picture into Vision On once...and it was shown!! Crumbs, that was very many years ago :eek:

    Wow! I'm in awe - you're the first person I know to have a picture shown on the telly. I used to lovingly send my "creations" in but to no avail! My Grandpa used to wind me up and insist that the BBC put all entries with Scottish postmarks in the bin :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    You have exploded the myth!LOL!;)




    Oh - got another couple to report - up to 5 please!

    Mega - mad- busy today at work, I am cream-crackered so off to my pit!
    See you in the morning!:)


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.

    Hi BDINI :wave: still feeling rubbish but DH has just fetched me a cup of tea and a hot water bottle in bed so I'm happy :D I'm getting better - I'll be venturing out tomorrow (not just the school run) as I have things I need to do so hopefully after an early night I'll be feeling even less like a zombie tomorrow :)

    I'd just like to say thanks to everyone who has been asking how I am and wishing me better :kisses3: You are all :A xxx
