    I hope I don't get the same as Purdy.....don't fancy my husband trying to sort that out for me :eek::eek:

    And now I've completely lowered the tone, I'll bid you all goodnight x

    Glad you only have one left, not so good about the "hold your nose" liquid but if it does help then you have to go for it. ;)

    My scan wait was not long and we had xmas in between so hope you get an appointment soon. Nothing worse than not knowing what is going on. Though I am still in that boat, had a bad bout on sunday, not made my doctors appointment for further investigation yet. Too much going on with mum at the moment. :o

    thanks lovey. Make sure you don't neglect yourself!! you are important too and need to look after yourself. I know how hard it is, Ive been where you are too.

    But make the docs appointment! :A

    Had a good wander around one of my Ts earlier, could not see any xmas chocs that might go to 1p they have all disappeared. :( I think I need to squirell much earlier. ;)

    Realised I actually spent £4 on chocolate today in M & S, 2 packs of walnut whips for £2 and 2 packs of honeycomb crunch. I definitely cannot afford to keep that sort of extravagance up. :eek:

    I was spoilt last year finding boxes of Tesco finest chocs for 1p must have been about this time as it was just before the Easter aisle was completely stocked. ;)
