    The sandpit sounds more than enough, but if you really wanted to, I suppose you could post an Easter card with some money in instead of an egg each?

    Take care tomorrow Xx

    Just catching up. So pleased re the holidays and how great it was. Can't Mr SA put up with a cramped flight once in a while?

    Very pleased you are also getting on with house refurbishments..sounds great and so well deserved after the few years you've had...

    Xx

    Mr SA loves the pressure washer, his new toy. He went mad this morning cleaning everything in sight, making a hell of a mess, which I have spent ages cleaning up. However, he overdid it and has spent all afternoon in bed with a bad back. Now he's complaining of headache, blurred vision and dizzy spells and has had a bit of a do as he calls it. Hopefully nothing sinister but I can't help being concerned given his health history.

    I've filled in the PIP form, it was quite easy as nothing whatsoever has changed since the last one I filled in for him. I mentioned on the form that he's just had an assessment but no doubt he'll be called in again. They only need to speak to his consultant, he's not going to improve, he has brain damage.

    Spent most of the day trying to tidy up the garden but am limited with the ankle. Not done too bad but ankle quite swollen now. I kept trying to rest but every time I did the dog appeared from nowhere with her ball.

    Good idea about the Easter cards and money Lucky :)

    Back to work tomorrow, but only 4 days then Eadter long weekend. Physio on Wednesday. Need to get back on the waggon WW wise.

    Hope Mr SA is feeling ok after a lie down SA, could the heat/sun be a factor with him feeling unwell too? It was really quite warm here earlier on. Anyway when he's feeling better send him our way with the pressure washer, our driveway could do with a good clean :rotfl: xx

    He seems ok now. I think he overdid it. MTG if you saw the mess he made with the pressure washer you'd soon change your mind :)

    Just wondered - has anyone hard from Buffy? It's not like her not to post for so long. Bit concerned.
