Thanks BM.
Hospital letter arrived today, appointment is a week tomorrow and can take 3 hours apparently :eek:. I'm really quite sore today so it can't come quick enough.
DH spent some time helping his best mate tinker with his son's motorbike engine today, which he enjoyed. I visited a friend at the same time to drop off her Christmas cards, and it was nice to catch up. While I was there I mentioned I needed to buy stuff for doing the laundry, and she gave me a big box of liquitabs as she buys them in bulk :T. It's my Christmas present apparently :rotfl: but it's easy £12 worth from a supermarket. I have lovely friends!Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

Would love a gift like that PLMBL, hate presents that are a waste of money. I have a good friend who would buy me a gift like your friend gave you and she would know I would be grateful. She also knows I am a cake and chocolate addict as we'll.xx:j Debtfree and and staying that way.:j3-6 month emergency fund, No.61 £140.000

I'm a cake and chocolate addict too Amber. Any food infact :rotfl:.
DH had a bad day yesterday. No full seizure but lots of mini ones and dizzy spells, along with bad tempers and snappyness. Such fun.
On a brighter note, DS2 had his nativity play which was gorgeous, and I 'only' gained a pound at chub club despite not being there for two weeks. I've also won a facebook competition with a load of Assassins Creed merchandise, which DH's Best Mate is in to, so that's his Christmas present sorted! XxDebts @ LBM £23,729.31.
