Mummyy3 well done
I'm dealing with garden grubs, not fun but hopefully will reap rewards.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Congratulations mummyroysof3. This is good you get to see if you like it and if another job comes up puts you in a good position.0

Well done Mummyroysof3; and good luck.:oDustykitten wrote: »I'm dealing with garden grubs, not fun but hopefully will reap rewards.
Mr LW hung the washing out before he went to work this morning - I had to dash (as far as one can dash on two sticks:D) out and grab it in, cos it flippin well rained.:mad: Most of my stuff (assorted undies, 2 velvety tops and 2 t-shirts) is nearly dry; Mr LW's 2 pairs of cord trousers are still quite damp. Got it spread round the rads at the moment - I refuse to do the Washing Hokey Cokey for anyone!:D
BM is on - again! I don't know where bread disappears to in this house!:think:
Folks, if I don't post tomorrow, don't worry. I have to visit the GP at 08:40 in the morning :eek: and Mr LW has permission to work from home tomorrow, to be able to take me. I may be too frazzled to do much when I get back; I have to see a Dr I haven't seen before (my usual Dr is on mat leave) and I have a bad case of "white coat syndrome", as I've heard it referred to, at the best of times.:(If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -

LameWolf it's hard seeing a new doctor. You have to explain yourself all over again and you don't know what to expect. But sometimes they come up with a new idea or you find you like them better than the one you saw before. So sometimes something good can come of it. I see a different GP depending on my problem at my surgery - when I get the choice.
