    Good morning guys :D I am back from my break down near Portsmouth
    I have been so busy down there. Kit has been very busy at work and so tired when at home, and Andy has been working at night as normal, so in bed till mid-afternoon, but I have been educating Steve in the art of APG glitching and then switched to getting the most out of coupons so we have been shopping almost every day :j They now have a very good stash of goodies and I had loads to bring home with me. The boot and back seat were loaded :rotfl: :rotfl:

    It was Andy's birthday the first week I was there so we went out in the middle weekend for a meal and the cinema - the first time I have been to a cinema since 1990 when I won tickets on local radio to see Postcards from the Edge :o:o. I was originally coming home last Monday but they kidnapped me, by not waking me up in the mornings and you know how I can sleep and by the time I got up, too late to drive home in daylight. The poor doggies release date from [STRIKE]jail[/STRIKE] kennels was put back a few times. I drove back yesterday afternoon, getting home at 8.30pm, and, after getting rid of the mouse I'd caught in a trap :eek:, I unloaded all my stuff from the car and settled down with a drink to watch Downton Abbey, while doing some washing

    The house is a tip, with the stuff I brought back from Newcastle and now these bags/cases, so I have a lot of sorting out today. I will be picking up the pups about 10.30am and then taking them to the 'beauty parlour' as they have appointment at 11am for the 'full works' so they are clean for coming home ;)
    I have really enjoyed this break. 2 weeks up 'home' and then 2 weeks down with friends, who always make me smile. I have to thank Kit (savingannabe), Steve (steviehants) and Andy (hantsindebt) so much for the help they give me. When I am with them, I feel free of worries and sadness. I can't believe that I have known them for only 2 years, as we all feel like we have known each other forever, and can talk about anything. Alan said as much shortly before he died, that he couldn't believe how we had met them through the internet and yet, they were like family to us both, and that it made things easier for him to know that I would have them to rely on when he was gone :( Typing that brought tears to my eyes :(:(
    And having you guys on here, and my friends on my diary thread, helps me more than I can say :A :A

    I am going to say Good Morning in that it is not icy cold this morning and there hasnt been too much nonsense to filter this morning :)

    Its funny. I thought that we were all adults but it would seem at times that this thread has degenerated into nothing but a kindergarten :(

    Morning ( notice the lack of the word good)

    Just been woken by all the phones in the house beeping and the house alarm going off due to a power cut, after sorting out the racket and crawling back to bed, not before stubbing same toe twice, could still here a weird noise so got back up, stubbed toe again, and looked out the window to see 4 fire engines 2 ambulances and 1 hell of a fire

    Just been on the news about a big house fire in Harlow Essex sadly people were killed
