Have booked tickets to take DS to Manchester (to look at the University). Wwe can get there for a tenner, but it will cost us £20 to get back! :rotfl: have used the trainline, through Quidco (this time) to source cheapest tickets, and we have to catch 'particular' trains as opposed to any train but this makes it cheaper. I have swapped a workday with my jobshare. She (on the days I'm doing for her) will be on a jolly to Dubai.

Hmmm - day trip to Manchester or 5 star luxury in Dubai - how the other half live :rotfl:

DD is in her 2nd year at Manchester and loves it :j Plenty to do there, whatever it is that your DS likes to do. What's he planning studying?

Off to find a list ..............

Kids are breakfasted and are getting dressed. I'm in the queue for the shower!

DW and WM have been unloaded. Dare I put the wet washing on the line today? It dried beautifully yesterday.

I'm looking former ward to meeting a friend for a chat and shop.

The bathroom door has opened....I'm gone.

Morning all

Didn't get much done yesterday as I had my friend here in the morning and DS2 decided that he would sleep on me in the afternoon (he is teething and enjoying cuddles at present). So quite a bit to catch up on today.

hugs to those who need them. Right need to get DS1 off to school - we have about 3 inches of snow so he is quite keen to get off lol.
