    Pip is now the proud owner of a passport under his new name. Whoop whoop!
    He had a crappy night last night, being awake until 5.30 am. He woke me at 4.30 and I decided to sleep in his room to help him. Poor mite.

    Oh that does sound good but I never drive past a Liddle to even look - or - just realised I do very occasionally and I've only ever been in once.   i bought a lot of jars of French Fish Soup.  I knew what they were from many years ago when I used to shop regularly in French supermarkets and have lunch in Calais (I had a job where i got free cross channel travel so it was a really fun thing to do on a Saturday).  I used to buy the soup in France and was delighted to see it in a cheaper supermarket and a bargain price.   The ex refused to eat it!  I ate the lot but have never been back.

    Will pop in next time I'm that way.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    And the half term is over, like it never happened, and we're into NOvember!
    Pip went to school; I went to liddle and then to the gym where I did my usual stuff then the first run of C25k - I 
    chose Sarah Millican as the voice on the app.
    I think my paperwork for all my jobs (ha ha!) is up to date.
    And I've accepted the contract offer from the exam board for leading a team next summer for the usual component. Yay!
    A wash has been done and hung up; food has been munched; poor Pip is a school until 6 (rehearsal for a sixth form event on fri + sat evenings), which he really really really could do without...

    Run 4/18 done and dusted. Go me!
    We had a small bonfire and fireworks yesterday with some of pip's friends, which was lovely. Only 1 firework went astray and deviated into the side wall of the house behind us before dropping into the hedge with a loud bang.
    Due to yesterday's visitors, we have now finished painting the dining area and even shoved a couple of big pics up.

    We've been to see a consultant psychiatrist under camhs. Went well. Took 2 hours. Didn't send Pip back to school afterwards!
    Hope that it was worth while.
