    Excuse my ignorance, but what's a diet coke moment?
    Bear in mind I watch very little TV so if it's an advert I won't have seen it.

    Eye candy. Stop all work. Stare. Resume work. Dreamily wait for next opportunity.

    It was an advert.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Kiwi 'grins' when he is delighted to see someone. Usually when they first arrive, or first thing in the morning , or when we do a station pick up etc.

    He is so delighted I am back from my long day away every time he sees me he grins.

    He often chooses to sleep with RP ( its very cute, he and RP spend a lot of time together) but this morning after hearing Fir take Dog dog down stairs, instead of joining them straight away he ran in the bed room to check I was still here and just grinned and grinned at me, then climbed on the bed to grin some more. Every time he sees me he grins. I had yoga this morning for an hour, and as soon as I let them out he was beaming his troll like ungainly little grin at me.

    He really dislikes people going, and I suppose he is used to the others coming and going, but I am his 'stable always present person' and so its a bit unsettling when I go for longer than usual.

    Never good. You have to "hang onto the positives".
    You are present, enabling you to help make decisions and be there. Being there is 90% of feeling you made a difference.

    All the best.

    Cheers PN. What a positive way of looking at things.

    There are a whole range of outcomes from here, some much better than others. We'll see what happens.

    Telly programme of disasters/rescues (BBC1). Family decided to have a firework party in their small back yard - and they let two kids play on an enclosed trampoline.

    One of the rockets was rogue and ended up in the trampoline pinging back/forth/round off the sides of the enclosure. All captured on their home CCTV.

    Was Harry Hill doing the voiceover ?

    Maybe something weird happened in the Universe and I will forever relive Friday evening. Relentlessly, in 10,000,000 different ways, until the end of the world.

    Now, we can't disprove that this isn't what's happening right now. We'll have to see/check if I'm here tomorrow before knowing.

    Could be worse, Friday night is my favourite part of the week :)

    Think the white t shirt has changed me forever. Still looked nice today in a different top.

    We're sitting next to each other for another 4 weeks, not sure how I'm going to cope :o
