    Yay for the extra £5 in your Tax Credits! :jA lot better than the infamous Tax Credit overpayment which seems to plague so many at the end of the year. I have a friend who was over paid £3000, knew she was being overpaid but they couldn't take it back til the end of the next year. She just put it aside untouched, not sure I'd have had her discipline!

    DB's classic with DVDs is an irresistable urge to fall asleep. I usually persevere with elbowing etc for about ten minutes before giving up and stomping off to bed. Men.

    Lucky I hope your hubby is ok! Aren't men a pain? We women would never cause this much stress! Seriously though I really do hope things are now fine at your end.

  • SA, we are doing better at this end than you are :( So sorry you've had such a bad day.

    DH is doing ok, a few wobbly moments but overall ok. He came to help put the tent up at Beavers tonight and I always find it helps to give him something else to focus on. Mind you, screaming 6 and 7 year old boys is enough to give anyone a funny turn so in hindsight it may not be the best situation to put him in :p.

    Fudgie, there is no way I'd be that disciplined!!

    I had a run in with my Mum on Tuesday and to be honest it really upset me. I've been licking my wounds for a few days and feel a bit better now so normal service shall resume.

    Hope everyone is well Xx

  • Everyone is doing well thanks SBO. DH seems back on an even keel touch wood and the boys are both fine. DS1 is counting down the days until school breaks up for summer, and DS2 is counting down the days until he starts nursery in September :p.
