    Good to hear you're on the mend Pippi...but take things easy if you can, or you'll be back being ill again.

    Been busy data entering today..tedious and boring, but getting there with all my client's customers' details...385 so far!! It's amazing how some folk get their postcode wrong, so I have to check each and every one (or sometime even try and find them, if not given!)

    Had enough now, so need to get some soup for lunch (late, I know:o). Then it's out with the dog...chilly here too...brrrrr. Will have a shower once I get back (will warm me up), have evening class tonight 10 miles away..hope the roads will be OK with this cold.

    Have a good day...keep warm!

    Keiss is right on not doing too much too soon, Pippi - and I love the image of you with one warm foot, courtesy of Cheery :)

    Lovely to have such a clever girl for a daughter! As well as all her other accomplishments, a real all rounder ...

    Keiss, hope you get to your class in this weather, brrrrrrrrrr.

    Evening all.

    Hope you had a good day today Pippi and didn't over-do things.

    Well doe on DD for doing so well!! :T:T Hope things go well for DS too. :)

    KC - got to and from the evening class OK...no sign of snow or ice..it's been so dry here, there's very little moisture about to freeze...even the car wasn't too frozen today at -2 this morning, very odd!!

    I've no invigilating now until next Thursday (:j for time to do other things, :( to less money). Still, have a busy time ahead the next few days. ;)

    Mind you, I am going to a sewing workshop on Saturday, so I will be doing what I love from 10 to 4!! Then shooting back 40-odd miles
    to watch the Calcutta Cup at a friend's house with DH and DS2 ...go Scotland!!! We're being fed too, so should be a lovely evening.

    I have some paperwork to complete tonight and take into college tomorrow...left it on the kitchen table this morning...:mad:

    It's a bit of a HC tomorrow driving-wise as DH's mini is in for it's service.

    So we drop off DS2 @ college; then drop off DH @ work (different town); pop into college and delivered completed papers; see if I can find more bobbins for my new sewing machine to use on Saturday (my online order has been delayed :mad:), then back home for an hour or two, before picking up DS2 just after lunch. DH will need collecting about 5/6.thank goodness we only do this one a year! :o Shame I need to get these papers delivered by the end of the week, as well as the need for a great
    bobbin hunt ... otherwise, I would have stayed @ home!! Ho Hum!!

    Right need to get these papers completed, night, night all xx
