    like Baldrick - you have a cunning plan as cunning as a fox that's just been appointed Professor of Cunning at Oxford University...

    I'm ever so busy...

    Not very cunning but I can throw $h!t at the fan and watch it fly!!!

    Dinner done, a wash done (never did strip the beds though), floors swept, kitchen wants sorting after dinner, to empty DW first.

    Have put DD down for school nursery from Sept 14. She can have a year in preschool at the private one then a year in the school one. Have also called the after school club, they've said to drop in for an application form / reserve days. Wll do that next week.

    Have checked all that over in terms of Childcare costs for my tax credit renewal. Will call that in Monday morning. Have also written down school dates on calendar (phased intake plus half term dates etc) so can check in with work. I have first week booked off, but may need to work from home the second week.

    There's lots to sort - like will DS swimming lesson be moved - school finishes at 3.30 and his lesson is currently at 3.45 but he should move up a group. Then I need to check with inlaws that they are happy to do a separate drop off one day a week.

    Apologies for the ramble - so many options, I don't know where to start. The after school club is £16pw for one morning and two nights, whereas the private one is £15pw for one morning and one night. Just the extra £1 would buy me an extra couple of hours for paid stuff on Monday afternoons.

    DD is currently singing "I banged my bonce again, I banged my bonce again" lol she fell over this morning into a door :(

    am amazed i was given this much info but need to share it with you!!!
    went into T's freezers were fully stocked but there was a blue ticket on the shelf with the own brand veggie mince details written on in front of an empty space. found a member of staff, (she looks quite official but is really friendly and helpful) told her i was looking for the own brand mince but it was all gone and had a blue label. i asked if blue label meant it was being discontinued or anything like that.
    NO it is a EPR Emergency product recall!! that can mean anything like recalled for safety reasons, or needing holding back for some reason but if it has a blue label the store has been told by head office to remove it from sale. she was sorry but couldnt tell me why this particular product has been 'blue seled' she did say it would probably come back once it has been sorted out
    not sure if i should have been given quite that much info but at least we know now what a blue label means in T's stores

    PP i love your version of the cunning plan

    Bossy hope everything comes together all all the time slots fit. hope your DDs head feels better soon

    busy afternoon, pleased to say DS2 got rid of the whole bag of cuddlies on his stall. went drs with mil, she needs to have 5 B12 injections over the next 2 weeks followed by 1 every 3 months for life. Dr said to start ASAP receptionist said no appts with nurse till mid july after standing waiting with a queue behind us and no one making a decision dr insisting they start next week receptionist saying not possible and a queue building to out of the door behind us i suggested they sort it out amongst themselves and ring us with appt times, then we snuck out before the queue got angry. ive been over chemist got the prescript and await mil telling me shes had a call and giving me a list of dates.
    thrashed it down while i was taking mil to the busstop but luckily got a nice driver to wait while i walked her up to the bus so she didnt have to wait 1/2 hour for the next. I refuse to pay busfares so i walked in the rain.
    going to play catch up now on a few jobs so its reasonable for the weekend

    Evening all, since 7 I have

    Taken DS2 to work, did my Friday night shop
    Put Shopping away
    Played cricket in the garden with DS3
    Watered the back garden

    Need to tidy up the kitchen from diner now and get DS3 to be. Staying awake until 10:30 pick up tonight is going to be tough.

    Good evening

    DS has come home from his student house for the weekend...again....and this time he has brought home the majority of his 'stuff' :eek:. All the floor that I had uncovered is now covered again with bags, boxes etc etc - but heyho - at least there was somewhere to put it which did not require us to learn mountaineering skills to get over it (like last year :o). He's going back to pigpen-land on Monday, and I think the next trip home will be the last from that particular house - so I'll pop over to check he hasn't left anything behind useful or otherwise :rotfl:

    However the good news is: he returned home at 4pm, and was asked to start work tonight at the same pub he worked at last summer - and which funded his trip to Saloufest this summer, plus he's asked if we can go into town tomorrow - so he's going to help me take in the three CS bags - woop woop :T

    Hope everyone is enjoying their Friday night

    Rxx
