    Bye for now. :)
    A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

And he is a credit/debt nightmare!! So fingers crossed for me please i get accepted :o

    MANDCO ah thankyou, just spoke to DD2 and he is still snotty, sneezy, etc but with the wonder of calpol, he isnt letting it get him down, he slept until ten past eight this morning!! I said to DD2 ooh do you feel better having a bit of a lie in? No mum i sat in his bedroom, watching and waiting for him to wake up :rotfl::rotfl:Thankyou for the argos links will check them out

    3FORHOLIDAYS oh i am so glad because it has been a bugbear of mine for weeks but i didnt want to tread on your toes :D omg well done on hitting your target!!!! Sending lots of good luck vibes your way for next month :)

    FEISTY errm that'll be a no :D:D i know i know i am terrible that is why i need nagging

    Hello all. x

    MRSI I am sorry for your news lovely :( Hugs and thoughts to you and your family.

    IrishRose What sad news thoughts for you and that poor family too. x

    3For Holiday Good luck comping. x

    Mandco Thank you for the argos tip!

    FreeSpirit Hope you get the meds and stuff sorted soon lovely , take care of yourself :)

    Peppapig Hello lovely how are you?
    Nannmia If your about nan sending you love. x

    Sorry I have been very quiet (What a shock I have been in and out of hospital again and had more surgery) Due for another op to change the valve in my head in the next 4-8 weeks roughly but knowing the waiting lists will probably be longer. Luckily my family and friends have been supportive as always. Was quite poorly at my local hospital and ended up being transferred with three paramedics and blue lights and sirens to the London hospital. The following day I had another bolt (icp monitor) which showed the pressure in head is to high again , that night the bolt came out accidently which meant a leak of CFS (Fluid around the brain) After a week and a bit in London came home and three days later the stitches got bad and it started leaking , finally the local hospital cleaned it and put more stitches in and its started to heal!

    Anyway.. I am just about keeping up with open Uni and have exams in June. Xmas wise I am behind a bit so need to sort that out!

    Sending hugs and hello's to all.

    xx

    Morning all,
    Well York wasn't the resounding success I was hoping for and we are all glad to be home.

    Its 4 yrs since we were last there and boy has it gone downhill ,the biggest surprise was the amount of London branded gifts/tat ,If you wanted something with York on it the choices were very limited.

    The Christmas shop was a huge disappointment just a lot of cheap rubbish and a very moody miserable sales assistant.
