    Checking through the signed consents for dtap/IVP & MenC imms tomorrow at one of my schools & 69 short! Means we will have to disrupt the school for another day and school nurses will have to go back in again. 102 parents have not put the child's immunisation history on - that was at least 109 phone calls I've had to make over the weekend.
    Sorry for moan but not how I hoped to spend my weekend.

    Similar to mine, but a bit smaller :p I got mine on eBay from a restaurant that was closing down. It's a while ago but I think I paid around £40, second hand obviously.
    be careful you don't develop an obsession with keeping it full :D I cannot stand to see a space in mine :rotfl::rotfl:

    ilovetoshop, well done on finding all those bargains! I would love to find some of the magnet paper, we're off on a cruise in August and I make magnets to put on the doors. That stuff would be absolutely perfect!

    Savvy, I know you've got aspergers and therefore your thuoght process can be a little different to others! I'm just trying to understand the above two quotes from you that I've highlighted, as I find them quite curious when you've talked about being such a stickler for speed limits and "following the rules".

    You talk about your frustration about a lorry going 40 in a 60 zone (I take it you are aware that there are different speed limits apply to lorries than cars?).

    Yet you then talk about going 55-60 in a 70 zone.

    Surely this is the same thing as what the lorry is doing?

    The question isn't meant to be offensive, so I hope you don't take it that way, I'm generally curious!

    Apologies for the delay (internet going off again), and no offence taken.

    You are correct. The lorry must have been over 7.5 tonnes. I was concentrating on cars with caravans, and lorries, on motorways and cars with caravans on single carriageways. Otherwise, why would I pay attention to speed limits that don't affect me as they don't apply to my vehicle?(:rotfl:) (:rotfl: as of course it does affect my vehicle as to what speed other vehicles on the road can do.)

    There was a difference between doing 40 in a 60* (and we've all seen cars doing 40 mph along country national speed limit roads - the overall point that was being made, although I used a bad example) and me sometimes doing 55-60 in a 70 zone. The 70 miles per hour being a dual carriageway, where I can just let other vehicles pass - and other vehicles can pass safely - while attempting to conserve fuel for myself. As opposed to a single carriageway road at places where those behind you can't overtake.

    * Of course it isn't really a 60 mph zone: as has been pointed out, different speed limits apply to different vehicles - which is why it is "national speed limit" and different speeds applying to different vehicles: you are right, I should have been more pedantic:eek: in my post rather than having been continually made to suppress my natural pedantry over many years of not wanting to appear to be the accurate swot that I was/am/aim to be. Pedantry sometimes (or often:D) annoys others does it not? Which is why, you see to avoid annoying others, I've sort of actively become less pedantic than my true self, by changing my behaviour so as to comply with social acceptabilities that all 'you lot' force on me!:T(:rotfl:) I should be more accurate rather than drive (no pun intended) out of my depth.
