    Good Evening. You ain't seen MT about much for the same reason Blue has been missing, we been playing scrabble on FB but she not wanna tell you all until she has finally beaten me:p:p:p

    Thanks for the info about the chocs. I got some but not long enough ago to check the receipt yet.

    If anyone has the leaflet through the door about the Asda baby event then don't throw it cos there is a coupon for a FREE Asda pharmacy goodie bag which is supposed to contain a height chart, magnetic shopping list and branded samples (maybe coupons;)). Unfortunately they ain't supposed to be available till Monday. My store had a few big boxes of them delivered tonight, but she hadn't unpacked them so I couldn't see what was in them, but I guess they are gonna be like the sainsburys/bounty ones.

    Jeferey I hope your AIL gets better soon.

    CW thanks for the pm.:beer: How's your OH doing, is he still sleeping a lot? How's the wombling going, have you done any lately? It's peeing it down here and has been for the last hour:(

    Morning Everyone! :)

    Sooooooooo happy! DD1 just got the results of her GCSE Biology and Physics and passed both :j:j

    If you remember she has special needs and I spent weeks helping her to revise every spare moment we had. It was such a stressful time as she finds it so hard to commit anything to memory.

    At primary school I began to wonder if she would ever be able to even read and now here she is passing GCSEs. So proud of her! :T

    Fab news BL. It just shows what a helping hand from parents and children who want to learn can achieve.:beer:

    So proud of granddaughter passed all 9 subjects, got 1A 3B's and 5C's....not bad for a profoundly deaf teenager...we are all so proud of her....well done to to BL's DD , you must be over the moon too.

    Will try and read more posts asap, but having a minute after long day DIY'ing....please let us have one more dry day tomorrow, it makes all the difference when the weather is kind....back of house done , gable ends done, just the front now......


    Well done to your GD. So much for the results been not so good this year, 2 people who have struggled have done well because they wanted to pass and studied hard against all the odds. Congrats to both and to anyone else whose kids have done well.

    Good morning fellow drivellers

    Its cloudy here, no doubt it will rain later.

    Blue - DH is still really sleepy atm, but at least it keeps him quiet. lol.

    Not had time for much wombling, or shopping for that matter, will have to catch up as my August total is only about £50 so far.

    Take care everyone and have a good Bank Holiday weekend.

    Don't forget free listing on ebay this weekend
