    Ooh cyclingyorkie what a shame. Poor you and DS2 I wonder if it's the end of his bug that's been lurking since Thursday? If it is then hopefully that'll be it. Fingerscrossed for you both. That bug seems to have been plaguing you all for far too long now.

    Hiya newbies ( ha Ive only been in for three weeks ) welcome and join the fun. I look forward to hearing your stories and smiles when you have achieved.

    Shame it's half term week. Was invited out for coffee but had to postpone. But he has made a point of asking me to call.

    Ask DD1 to look after DD2 and go?

    Morning All

    My throat's rather sore and it's very painful to swallow so I hope I haven't got tonsillitis again. Anyway I have nothing planned today apart from Beavers and Cubs tonight so hopefully I'll get some stuff done.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    CY.. bugs mutate quickly.. so it might be a new one DD2 has.. it is usually every 5 people it is completely different but if antibodies haven't been produced adequately first time it might be only the 3rd mutation or 4th and she caught it again.. I love bugs.. not :p

    I am concerned that it's my fault!:o She wasn't sick after Thursday and seemed keen to eat a live yogurt yesterday to try and get some good bacteria back in her gut........
