    Hmmm, I'm not convinced as yet, I can still smell it and I've washed my hands :rotfl:



    !!!!!! are those traffic lights on the big round about at the bridge all about?! They don't seem to flow very well. I was going to T's the other day, came up to the round about and the lights were at green, but couldn't go anywhere as the next set were at red so there was a huge queue backed up and no one going anywhere. So stupid :mad::mad:

    Exactly a complete nightmare mainly because no ones leaves the way clear on the roundabout for the flow , my DH took 15 minutes to get from the esso side of the dual carraige way to the Merc side, said he could see work and was still late:rotfl:

    Well it was mainly about how I can't get gift vouchers from Viking, it keeps going through to payment then the cards are suddenly OOS :(.
    Also, I had to see DSes year head yesterday about boys beating him up after them teasing him about talking to girls and him telling them to leave him lone but they pushed him down and when he got back up one boy started hitting him. He managed to get away but they followed him. The girls had come to see if he was ok and confirmed what DS had told me had happened.
    The boys mum didn't see why it was any business of the schools as it was outside school grounds but they were all in school uniform. She also didn't see why her son should be punished, I didn't want this I just wanted the school aware of what had happened incase it happened again inside school but the year head said the boy is a bit of a problem inside school anyway so felt that some form of punishment was warranted to show him the behaviour wouldn't be tolerated. He was put in isolation when ordinarily he would have been suspended but because DS hit back they didn't want the mum to complain about that and decided to put DS in semi-isolation just so the other mum couldn't say they were being unfair. I fully understand their predicament as we have to deal with these sorts of parents all the time so told her DS and I were ok with that.
    DS was pleased because it meant he missed all of his weekly spellings tests and spent most of the day with his favourite teacher doing science all day.

    I have just found out who the boy was and am now not surprised at the boys behaviour, his mum was worse when we were in school together, so much so that she was expelled from many. I can honestly say that if it wasn't for Facebook I would never have known who the boys mum was.

    aww its his card, that'll be a special card then:) I know you miss him everyday but Stay strong:A
    I don't know if you remember 3dogs, But i was telling you about my neighbour, it's coming up to 4yrs for her now since she -my lovely neighbour lost her beloved. I chatted to her yesterday, since I moved away, don't get to see her often so call her to check she is ok, she talked about her hubby for a whole 45 minutes before she asked me ' how are you?' :rotfl::rotfl: Anyway, and she did not even realise this, and in fact, I didn't either. He was such an amazing person, an amazingly loving and lovable soul - hearing stories of his life / doing's / saying's / what he liked to eat etc were so interesting. I know you also do think of your Mr.3Dogs, so often. Please do share with us anything you would like to. I'm sure you know already we would all love to be here for you, to share anything, but having spoken to my lovely neighbour, just thought I'd remind you that I especially think of you, and want you to know I'd love to hear more about your Mr.3dogs who sounds just a wonderful person:) xx

    hugs to all x x

    Funkyfeet, you are such a lovely breath of fresh air :A :A and say such lovely things :T
    FunkyFeet put this so well, I would love to read more about Mr 3Dogs too

    I will try to sneak in a few details :j

    How unlucky am I. Bought the right crips last night (14-packs). Compared against every other shop, but not Morries. :(

    Shop was done at 8.50 pm last night
    Sorry to have not been around to answer everyone's questions after posting the above early this morning.

    I bought Wotsits as my 3rd in the 3 for £5 offer. I didn't put my receipt in until this morning, which appears to be where I went wrong from what others have since posted - thanks.
