    ((((((hugs))))))) to all in need.

    Just a really quick post, please don'y think me rude or insensitive, but Snowy got it slightly wrong (plans changed!) and I'm off in about 40 minutes!!!:D Have skimmed the threads at about 100 miles an hour, but I'm afraid it was only a surface skim, so no specific hugs.:o

    Thank you all so much for your birthday greetings!!!:D

    Loved the snow picture kyle!

    Off now, see you next week!!!

    Snoozer, I know what you mean my DS is in his last year too. He seems to be coping OK at the moment, but I keep in constant touch via msgr to judge the mood. He had Tonsillitis and had to have penicillin, glad to report he seems to be over it and back at the assignments and the dissertation. Luckily he is willing to share with me what assignments he has and when they have to be in for so I can offer gentle support and nagging before they reach panic stage.
    Moggins its true the bad things always seem to happen to the nicest people.

    Thanks Donnygal,

    TBH I think DS sometimes suffers from (his own) comparisons with DD. She is 3 years older and has always worked hard and done very well in everything. DS find it hard to keep up and has been putting the pressure on himself by telling us he would like to get a 2:1. Hopefuly I have put him straight that whatever qualification he ends up with we will be proud and happy.

    Moggins - so sorry for your friend.

    Happy birthday Churchmouse.

    Hugs all round.

    So sorry about your friend.

    Have DD (13) at home with tummy bug so she is watching t.v. and have made her a "nest" on the sofa.

    Sausage casserole is in the slow cooker and I have peeled potatoes ready to make mash to go with it.

    Trying to get DH to take me to Lidl to get some noodles, rice and sauces.

    Hugs to everybody.

    moggins ((HUGS)) to your friend, thats such sad news xx

    Been busy this morning, but having fun with the little ones. Have cleaned the bathroom and toilets, and my oven - then decided to take the LOs in the garden to play whilst i cut the grass!!! They had a lovely time, and played really nicely which helps. Also tried to sort out my telewest phone line - still not done, but should be in the next 24 hours.
    Right, im hungry, LOs have had their lunch, and we are now having quiet time, so im going to have something to eat.
    Hope everyone is having a good afternoon,
    Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
