Only freedom will do

It wasn't informal KC, she was buried properly/formally, but it's a plot shared by lots of families experiencing the same sorts of tragedy, not ours alone. We weren't refused per se, just no plots available bar family plots in our local cemetery. It sounds ridiculous now, but at the time we didn't want to bury her at the other side of the city where graves were available. I am not sure that was the right decision now, I was so upset that I couldn't 'find' her today.

I am so sorry, Ed. I didn't know else I would not have written what I did earlier. I cannot imagine what it must be like to lose a child but echo Karma's comments.

Thinking of you and your family.

Thank you KC/Alex, feeling more chirpy this morning, chatted to Mrs E and she had some good ideas.

I agree with KC Ed, you ARE visiting as often as you should. It's up to you to decide what is right for you and your family. Also, you picked the place that was right for you at the time.

Hope you all have a good day, are you off work?

Hi GG

Nah, back to work now, we managed 5 days in a row out of the office, so no complaints. I am developing GGesque skills in maximising my days off. Working compressed hours is a great base from which to avoid going to work :rotfl:

Hi Ed, glad you feel chirpier today, and Mrs E's input has sparked something good off.

And here's to compressed hours

Mrs E pointed out that we have 2 bank holidays in May :j

I have booked a cheap family night away in a nice hotel in the Borders for the Sunday night. Country scenery, a Sunday lunch and a pool for DD to enjoy, a bargain for £55 or so.

What, with a spreadsheet to work out total days to days leave ratios . Or are you not that sad :rotfl:.

I'm not that *cool*, but it's only because my mental maths is pretty nippy and I can do the sums on the fly

Need to get home quickly this evening, think Mrs E is taking to this gym lark as well.
