  • Morning all :wave: Hope everyone had a good evening xx

    Sorry to hear it was going sloooow last night FF :( it seems to be back to it's speedy self this morning, so fingers crossed they've fixed the glitch!

    Thank you Wingo x Unfortunately it wasn't a presentation, that I could have coped with! Haven't you realised yet that there is nothing I enjoy more than droning on & on & on? ;) :rotfl:
    They called it a conference (I think that's just being fancy for a web chat), but because my brain is wired oddly I just found it stressful. Silly things really. Two examples:

    1. They are based in Halifax, Canada so it was morning for them/afternoon for me. So the hour leading up to the "chat" I was worrying should I say "good morning", "good afternoon" or just "Hi!". Needed to impress so didn't want to muck it up right at the beginning.

    2. I'm sure I can get some comedy out of this at a later date *rolling eyes*. I'd balanced the webcam on top of my monitor and to me it looked wonky. I didn't think it would be polite to keep reaching up and fiddling with it so I left it. But all I kept thinking was... do I look lopsided to them, should I do that quaint thing and tip my head to the side etc.

    Thankfully they didn't seem to think I was too weird, or maybe they were too polite to say! LOL.

    What a cool Mum you are synchronised swimming! We'll all keep our fingers crossed for you that your bather stays in place, lol xx

    Hope you all have a great day with a few wins along the way.
    R xx

    Morning all :wave: Was chucking it down this morning but brightened up a bit now thankfully :)

    Glad the site is back to normal fire**fly :) I know Thursdays your busiest day for everything. Hope it's lucky for you! Xx

    Aw yes Dreaming_ I love your new avvy too! I could do with some meditation therapy myself! :p I'm sure you did great in the conference yesterday :T That was brave of you!
    I wish it was my own kids in the synchronised swimming, it's with the special needs kids who have autism etc so hoping it goes well!

    Sheils I bet you're full after your breakfast! :drool: Enjoy your break :)

    I've got an itchy nose today so people better stay out of my way! :D I was having a sneezing fit this morning rushing to get kids to school so now it's annoying me!
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Have a good journey to your DD's tomorrow Sylvia :) Hopefully you will have a good cash win to pay for the tyres ;)

    Have you had a good day fire**fly? Any wins today?
    I got a handful of mail but no wins though! Thankfully though insurance has been in touch to sort out damage so we might be able to get on with plastering etc that needs doing from the leak we had.
    Hubby been painting kitchen while I was at work :j well he put an emulsion on anyway for now! :D it's a start!
    The swim rehearsal was going well until one of the kids accidentally pooped! :o:p
