    Thanks, kind of you to say so.:o You are doing brilliantly to keep up with SW and AF on top of all the family and finance issues.

    BTW where is your caravan? I'm imagining Oxwich or Port Eynon. Just wanted a mental picture. I must be feeling homesick.:)

    12/29 AFDs for me, and it's a good job there's no wine in the house tonight or I'd be sorely tempted.

    Had an informal interview for a 1-day a week secondment into an internal communications role, and I was supposed to hear today whether I was successful. No news, so I don't think I got it.

    My full time role is boring me rigid, so I was hoping for a day of interesting work.

    Went to a talk by "The vicar of Baghdad" last night. An amusing take on Iran being the beginning of the Christian/Jewish world, and most likely where the world will end. The chap looked rather like the cartoon character Penfold, which was rather disconcerting.

    41, well done on the weight loss.

    I'm going to see Hugh Laurie at Oxford tomorrow evening, which I'm looking forward to.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

  • Maman, our caravan is stored on a farm in Birchgrove, Swansea and last weekend we went to Gateway Caravan Park in Bynea, Llanelli and it was very beautiful. I know loads of people who have caravans down in Port Eynon, apparently it is really nice there, one is my cousin who goes down every weekend.
    12 AF/30 and gien is the SNC still on, if it is then I'm up for the full monty.
    Going to see Mrs Brown in Cardiff on 22nd next Saturday but will definitely be AF.
