  • Right - really must do a proper round up later on :o

    Can't believe we're into March already :eek:

    On the Positive side ...... I have my new car tax disc - fully paid for (with the coin jars) for the next year :T

    On the errrrr worrying side ...... MOT is today!:eek:

    Please keep your fingers crossed - knowing my luck, it'll fail on something silly :o - just realised I'd better check the spare wheel (don't think I've been in there since the day I brought Dinky home!)

    Will report back later .......

    How did the MOT go, Rising? I had my fingers crossed for you!
  • Well - after a very anxious wait ....... SHE PASSED! :j:j:j

    *phew* OMG I really hate these things - it's so easy for them to fail on something really silly (like a light - although I did obviously check these!)

    Good news on the MOT front, when they say "its passed" I always think they are talking about my car aren't they and haven't got me confused with someone else.x

  • LOL Amber, I know just what you mean

    The guy came through and said 'that's you done then, he'll bring it round in a sec' and I was like 'you mean it's passed?' :o

    I really am one of life's pessimists :o


    Not sure what we'll get up to today (I'm on hols this week)

    Looking OK outside just now so will need to take Maisie somewhere nice for a walk:)

    Favourite beach is off-limits as she's had an horrendous tum again on Sunday night (still not right) :( and realised we'd been there on Sunday AND had also been there on the Monday when it was bad the other week :(

    Not sure if it's just coincidence but will have to give it a miss for a few weeks just in case


    Have awful appt at Dentist tomorrow (need to get crown removed & post they had to put in & roof filling etc which dentist says 'won't be nice & you'll need a day off afterwards' so not really looking forward to that!

    That'll put paid to Thursday as well by the sounds of it :( & then have a hospital appt on Friday morning in Edinburgh .... what a lovely week off!:rotfl:

    Hi Risin

    Not to worry you but Daybreak are talking about palm oil washing up on the beach at the moment and it is making dogs sick. They said to be vigilant and it looks like "a white deposit". It leads to upset stomach, diahorrea etc. They are asking dog walkers to be vigilant but you don't have to avoid the beach.

    Hopefully this has nothing to do with your dog but I thought I should let you know.
