    Happy Birthday Grace :D, Cinny :D and Zig :D! Cakes all round! :bdaycake:

    Hope everyone has a lovely day, but especially hoping that Grace enjoys her first swim! :)

    Hope you get a payrise Archers, we get ours in August if we do get anything. I got a whole 1% last year! :)

    Well done on the driving lesson CMD, good to hear you're starting strong! :)

    Happy Birthday Grace, Cinny and Zig!

    Archers - we get a pay of living increase in April I think, although I haven't heard anything yet but ours might be automatic? I didn't get it last year as I was still on probation so not sure how it works really! Hope you get yours though!

    Hope yesterday got better for you Lara if you're reading?

    Well done on the driving lesson CMD, you'll be driving around in no time!

    Happy Birthday Cinny, Zig and Grace!!! :D Hope all three of you are having a lovely day full of treats.

    Well done on the driving CMD!!

    Thanks for the love yesterday ladies. I don't know what was wrong with me. I'm feeling much better today - although it's so cold I still want to stay under the duvet!

    I did a bit more research for some house stuff, which cheered me up :) Persuaded OH we should change the kitchen worktop and hob. Ours is all broken where we had to take it off to fit the double glazing. It is yucky! Found some unused worktop for sale quite cheap online and a good value hob. Am hoping the new worktop, fitting and hob can come in at under £500. It's a bit naughty to be spending, since my money is ending in August, but I'm still in denial - we need an ostrich smiley, surely?

    I'm working on the closet too - little by little. OH invited people round so that's a good motivator!

    Nice day, peeps.

    Little bit off topic - anyone seen anywhere doing good deals on Havainas flips flops at the moment? :)

    Happy Birthday Grace, Cinny and Zig :beer: (no alcohol for you though Grace, maybe some champers for Mammy and Daddy!)

    Thanks for all the good wishes for the driving lessons. There is so much to learn but everyone says it is practice, practice, practice!
