    Hope Oakley is ok.
    There is a villiage called Oakley quite near to me.

  • £43 later :eek: and the vet has fixed his foot.
    Had to put it on the cc as we literally have no spare cash this week. Will pay it off next week.

    Also went to the hospital for DH’s Epilepsy Consultant appointment. They are increasing one of his meds to try to reduce the partial seizures, but the last time we increased it had a negative effect on his moods. Batten down the hatches ...:mad::mad::mad:.

    Used £16.50 of clubc@rd vouchers to put some diesel in the car, and got some shopping at Icel@nd using a £10 voucher. Spent £10.13 so only 13p cash spent :T.

    Hope the medication change does help.
    Eeek to the vet bill, I was 30 odd last week for my best boy.

    Ouch to the vets :( Hope it's sorted now though.

    Hope the medication does help and doesn't have a negative effect on his moods.

    Take care

  • We had snow this morning but not horrendous, and schools were open. It’s got much worse tonight though and there are reports of people stuck in cars for hours since rush hour :eek:. Really hoping schools are closed tomorrow.

    Today has been a NSD :T and cleared about £4 profit on an eBay sale.

    My DH never gets any money to spend :rotfl:.

    Weather is absolutely dire. DS1’s school is closed which is a relief as I wouldn’t have been able to get him there. DS2 is at school which is open :mad:. He really wasn’t happy that they decided to open, and as we are able to walk to it we had no excuse for him to stay off. Absolutely ridiculous that they are open though - only 3 teachers have made it in!
