    that sounds like a grand day out :)

    i agree facebook texting and email are ideal for those friends far spread, i really enjoyed catching up with my friend in nicaragua when she lived there, we spoke virtually every day, when she moved back home we lost touch, strange how that happens

    keeping in touch with friends close by is harder though in some ways, i have a friend that i have tried to meet up with several times, we talk often on the phone and text but meeting up is like trying to find houdini sometimes :(

    oh dear, morning again.... really tired today and sore throat - hope it goes away after a cuppa cos I wanted to go for a wee run before college. Moved money between accounts yesterday and it hasn't appeared yet - grr! It's for a school trip so need to hand a cheque in by friday then it won't get cashed for weeks but it still bugs me that it vanishes for a day or two.

    Forgot to take chicken out of the freezer last night for a curry so took out some bacon and mozarella instead and made some pasta with them some roasted pine nuts, cherry tomatoes and spinach - I loved it but DS not so keen :D but he ate it...
    So... study or ready...study or read...

    oh and I ran 3 miles earlier so not all bad :D
