    hope you've made your cup of tea and enjoyed it. I've debated about AQA but i'm not sure i'll be any good at it. I know what you mean about lonely nights, my OH lives in London till he can get a job here and it's so hard i only see him every 2 or 3 weeks. I guess that's why i've been living on here so much lately - that and my dfw struggle.

    Thanks Lemon Tree :D yep, I've had my cup of tea and I have gone through the box of books ... I'm terrible when it comes to kids books, I want to keep them all :o ... some of them are really lovely hardback books, some would make really lovely gifts for ds friends ... but then, my pressie cupboard is already full to bursting :rolleyes: ... I have sorted out a pile I definatly want to keep for ds, and then I need to try and decide how much I want for the others .... I'm guessing about 50% of rrp ... most I got cheaper than rrp and the lady who's intersted will know that .... but then, when I think of 50% of rrp it might be worth keeping some more for the pressie box ??? Aaaagh !!!!!

    such a decision, guess the decider will be how big the pressy box is and how much more you can fit in it. I'm a demon for books as well, i always buy my nephews and neices them for chrissy or birthday, they get more than enought [EMAIL="!!!!"]!!!![/EMAIL] from everyone else! This year i've bucked the trend and gone for clothes from tesco's sale.

    I totally agree, when anyone asks what to get ds for a present I always say a book or money for his bank account :o:o ... he's started learning phonics at school and I'm so excited that soon he'll be starting to learn to read :j

    Hi Benben and Lemontree, so your excuse for being on here so much is having no partners around well mine's sat in the same room so I don't know what my excuse is :rotfl:

    Infact I've just tried to talk to him about something serious that is bothering me and he started picking his feet saying hmmm hmmm yes hmmm to me...:eek:

    You can be lonely sometimes too even in a relationship and everyone tells me I've got a good one with my husband :rolleyes:

    well I feel really yucky today ... I woke up at 7 and was sick and my stomach feels horrible :confused: everytime I try and get up and do anything I feel really sick again, so I'm now firmly camped on the sofa under a blanket ;) ds is playing with his trains on the floor and I might try and get some AQA'ing done seeing as I'm sat here :rolleyes: :D

    Sats are good for me too, but ds is at his dads every other weekend. He's here this sat (tomorrow) an then every other weekend after that although we are busy on 10th Nov. Let me know when you're free and we'll see what we can sort out ;):D

    Hypno, you're welcome ;)

    I'm still feeling rubbishy ... I keep nodding off and every time I move I think I'm gonna be sick ... poor ds is still in his pj's :o
