    DD and I are having a lazy morning watching Frozen in bed. Was her suggestion, who am I to argue ;) :rotfl:

    Back to the dentist this afternoon for 2 fillings, a replacement one on the bottom right and one on the top left :eek: not looking forward to a numb mouth!

    Happy shopping all catch up later :wave:

    DS1 off on his school rewards trip this morning. Thank goodness he's gone! He was fine about the trip because he got plenty of notice. He couldn't get to grips with leaving for school early, it put him in a proper grump........and who was in the firing line? :eek:

    He decided an argument about underpants was the best way to deal with it :rotfl::rotfl: He has to wear normal clothes and asked if he should wear school underpants or not.
    Now I know him well enough to know there was no right answer to the question as he would have an argument ready for whatever I said.
    If I said yes......he would say, but I'm not going to school
    If I said no.......he would say, but technically it's for school so I should. A no win situation for me.

    So I got a new pair of underpants out of the stash of various new bits and pieces Ive got. I told him they were school trip underpants :D :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: and it was all fine ;)


    I would never be that quick thinking....well done you. Situation diffused. :T

    Hope he has a lovely day FC. :A

    Good morning all.

    Planning what to make with all the veg. I think a veg lasagne is first on the cards today. Hope everyone has a great day.

    Why can't the schools do everything at the same time :mad:

    I don't think I have ever known a school trip to get back on time, usually late but even had a couple early. :eek:

    Fingers crossed it's all to schedule for him. :A

    Where are my manners this morning. :o

    Good morning Elite. :)

    Had to chauffeur Mr TS to the train station this morning for meeting in London. He was excited to think he might catch the Tour as he walks from the station to the office. :cool:

    But when he checked the route last night, he goes into the meeting at 1pm before it goes by and comes out 4.30pm after it has finished. :(

    Sooo close too.
