    Popped out of lurkdom to :T:T:T

    Not read back loads so not sure if I've missed a lot, hope everyone is keeping well, hugs to those in need.

    We went to Alton Towers for a Santas Sleepover last week :D It was so nice, and it was a HUKD deal so IMO a bargain. Kids had a ball, sonic spinball almost saw me off :rotfl: Still did it twice as the kids loved to hear me squeal :o

    DD2 and DS2 keeping me on my toes, had ds2 at the paediatrician again over his weak legs last week, he can't walk very far so they are doing more tests :( She had him stand from a sitting position without holding anything and he struggles so goes onto his hands and walks them up his legs for support, he's done this for a long time and the physio says he has weak hips, quads and something else. He struggles with stairs and running too. The doc didn't tell me what they are testing him for but google has scared the life out of me, the way ds2 gets up is called the gowers manoeuvre and a lot of his symptoms point towards muscular dystrophy :eek: they are testing to rule it out which I hope is the case but my brain is going into overdrive :( Tests are likely to be early January so got to stop being a doom maker as my oh put it :o

    Thanks Bubbs, oh is off work from Monday to Saturday so it will be nice to have him on the run up to xmas :) Despite all that is going on ds2 is his usual OTT self :D

    I've just ordered his xmas pressy, he wanted a crazy kart but there is leg work involved to control them and we don't think he would manage so we've struggled to come up with something, he loves his iPad 2 so we looked at getting an upgrade but sooo expensive, maybe for his birthday. We ended up with this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00N2XS4AK?keywords=ollie&qid=1450625003&ref_=sr_1_1&s=kids&sr=1-1 which looks fab, he'll have to use my phone to control it but that's fine as noone ever rings me :rotfl:

    i rang john lewis up just now, none in stock in my local :(

    but she said we can deliver on the 24th of december :j:j (free delivery on my one)

    i just love the jl set up.

    so to be clear. if you ring their ho 03456049049 they will tell you if the tv your after will be delivered in time.
    so the even better news. as no tv in my local i can go to the pub instead of jl :D

    Well done zippy :beer: good result all round then :T




    Home again, home again

    Jiggity jig :)


    I'm bushed, wacked, kernackered and done in, all at the same time :eek:

    Done most of pressie shopping, the rest is coming in the post or courier :)

    I went to Poundsaver today, yes, at last we have one in our town. I decided to get ds3s DGF doggies a pressie each and his cat something too :rotfl:

    So, Max the cat has got a soft chewy/play mouse :) Bentley and Bonnie have got a Kong thingy and a Bone thingy. Not very descriptive I know, but there :o

    I decided last night to do the Nectar thing, not knowing or understanding what you were all on about as never done it before :eek: I'm a Nectar Virgin :eek:

    Got £30.61 in points, see I thought you had to have a special Money type card but you were all meaning your Nectar Points Card :j. Ok so I thout I was putting £2.50 on my card but they've put the lit on there. Never mind, I'll just have to remember it's all there.

    Anyway, went on Argos site, again this was last night. Reserved some dream pillow cases, very imaginative wasn't I :rotfl::rotfl: went and picked them up earlier , so that's been done :j

    I do hope you've all had a good day shopping and bargain grabbing, my day is now done. I'm off for a coffee, a ciggy and a play CC Soda

    Maybe I should catch up first? Nah, I need to chill :rotfl::rotfl:


    Sorry about the size of my post, ooops, I've just made it bigger
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    I've just been reading the reviews on this strewth, what a great toy it is :). Moves very quickly it seems so keep your feet out if the way :). I'm sure he'll love it though, and a great price :beer:
