    Neither hard at work, nor forgotten about you Lois;) This is the second week of our school holidays and it has been fanfrickintastically quiet (I opted to work through the holidays due to student on placement and also so I could be a martyr to my teacher colleagues on their return. That'll show them to have holidays!).

    House is still upside down and it's unfortunately getting right on my t1ts now - apologies for the offensive language, however it really is! And breathe ....

    I'm urgently desperately needing to get back to my no alcohol/crisps/biscuits regime as my clothes are digging in so badly I have large attractive cellulite welts on my cellulite's cellulite. Radish - are you around? I need you to slap me in the face and get me re motivated please.

    Hope you can get the house back the right way up, natty, and start breathing again.

    It's only the first week of the state school holidays here, although my second week because I teach at an independent school. So last week was the "magic week" aka "golden week" when my kids were at school but I wasn't. :D
    Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

    Y'see that's what I needed - some good old fashioned Radish boot camp, complete with appropriate smilies.

    Can I do my 4 weeks no alcohol from Sunday please? (I have 3/4 bottle of good Italian and want to be :money: about it)
    However, by way of compensation I'll do my crisps and chocolate with immediate effect and will report in daily just to bore you all with my non mortgage related rambletants (a mash-up of ramblings and rantings depending on how it's all going:D)

    Righteo - up, shower, work.

    I'm on it Al - well technically re-engaged with it for a week, hooked up with HDK and Cal. Then stopped again once operation stuff-my-gob got well underway :o

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Oh Natty you have such a way with words :kisses3:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
