    Hee hee, well spotted Lois!! :T

    I've decided to cut down on the wine intake for now & haven't gone for Tesco's (:wave::p) 25% off deal as I know that the more I buy, the more I drink :o

    I think I'll get the Easter hols over with & then I'll join you all in the wine fast :A

    skint, lovely to read that you're all loved up, it's so sweet :)

    What else are you thinking of El?

    Thanks Poppy, very happy and enjoying life at the minute:D

    DS has just gone to his dad's so having some time on the sofa watching an old Margaret Rutherford film then I'll head to the gym before going over to see lovely man later... oh actually there is a huge pile of ironing to deal with first...

    Almost fell for Martin's FB April Fool today, nearly midday now so hopefully I'm safe now:D

    Oh and disliking the fact my banking stuff is all held up for the bank holiday - like to know where I am. DS has grown again and so new school shoes are required...

    In addition to abandoning wine for the month I'm also going to ban cheese and crackers... now this one could prove tough!

    DS has grown again and so new school shoes are required...

    Must get mine to check his shoes and the length of his school trousers. I know I need to get summer uniform shirts, and want to get it all in one trip into town. Better check DD's uniform too, I suppose.

    Ha ha good April Fool :T

    What do you mean you're serious :eek:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I agree with Gallygirl here. Are you sure rather than banning crackers you haven't just gone a bit...
