    I have three issues getting to Court

    1) it is an hour and a half- two hours to get there by public transport, I don't own a car . So you are looking at me leaving 7am.

    DH leaves at 7am to go to work, I have no family locally to look after DS until he goes to school

    2) I am waiting to find out which one of two schools DS will be going to, at moment he is going to one, but have appealed for the one I want

    3) I don't have any trusted childminders and will need to find one asap who is prepared to take DS from 7am until about 6pm!

    dman and drat.

    Maybe not the best time then for it.
    Maybe see if you can defer?

    I have to copy the letter for work in case they tell me they will help me with costs and I have to attend, then will explain all my reasons why I cannot attend this one.

    Aesop~your OH makes me very very cross & thats a understatment.
    Youcould be recalled quite quickly if its anything like up here or you could investigate having a childminder for the duration which they should pay for.

    Same here Beanie. Hope you can sort something out Aesop :(

    My confession of the day:

    I went to bed about 2.15am and, apart from letting pups out at 7am and 10am, I have been asleep and just got up at 3pm

    :o:o:o:o:o

    And I don't care

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I had a lovely sleep and after 10am I let Molly up on the bed instead of putting her back in her crate and she soon settled and slept cuddled up to my head

    :D:D:D:D:D

    Tesco and Asda are both open till 8pm tonight with these revised opening times, so will do my shopping soon :beer:

    what is the revised opening hours? seen a sign outside of mine just now saying they will open until 10pm weekdays. thought they were only allowed to open so many hours on a sunday because it is the sabbath and we shouldn't trade anyway.

    ps got strawberries Beanie, must be psychic. :D

    Tesco and Asda are open till 8pm Sundays till 9th September :j :j Our Sainsburys haven't changed their opening hours though. I think it is up to individual stores. I rang Tesco but Asda details were on their website under the store details

    Right, off to the shops for me :j

  • Hi 3Dogs, I'm so sorry for you loss. The first few pages of this thread had me choked, he must have been a wonderful man, and indeed a lucky one to have you by his side.

    You are an inspiration Xx
