    Blind as you run...aware you were staring at the sun.

    And when no hope was left inside on that starry starry night.

  • well, I'm back, osteo was very good; doesn't seem that there is anything else wrong with my foot, but he agreed that forcing myself to walk on it when it hurt wasn't a good idea, but that i should walk on it as much as I can.

    I haven' taken any painkillers so far today and yes, they were working, so i'm going to pop one down in a min.

    Not sure I'm going to do anything else today.

    Hi
    Just taking a break from buffet prep--- about half an hour ago the electricity went off and I thought I had had it but all well again now.

    Thank you dannahaz for your good luck wishes.

    Very happy birthday patent girl!!!

    Well had a phone call from OH's work colleagues and I dont hink he is suspecting anything so fingers crossed.

    So far I have prepared fillings for sarnies
    Made 2 really large tortillas ( and bless them they have turned out without catching) I keep a special pan under my wardrobe that the rest of the family dont know about so cant dig metal implements in !!!
    I have made a double batch of olive,onion and 2 cheese scones. ( good old Delia)
    Sausages are cooked
    Eggs are boiled.

    So now I have got the hummous, bruschetta, roasted new potatoes and dip,celery with cream cheese and goat cheese grapes to do. All fiddly thing s which I will have to do tomorrow early.

    Now I just need to tidy up -- hide the evidence and look all calm and relaxed so that he doesn't think there is anything going on !!!

    Really good news- Just had a £40 rebate from the Nationwide for my dd2 and my account. It was set up when she went travelling but I am going to bale out as I find her monetary ways stressful!!!

    Hope everybody else.s day is going well
    Try and do a good deed every day.

    Hi all - hope everyone is having a good day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY PATENTGIRL!

    DANNAHAZ - I had to laugh at your description of men shopping. They're all like that! The last time I went shopping with my DH he tried on a jumper and said 'don't like it - doesn't feel right' and he hadn't pulled it down at the back. I straightened him out and then noticed another wife doing the same with her DH! I heard another wife say 'take your hands out of your pockets' and her husband did exactly as he was told! I just think they regress to being children again - the only thing I didn't do was get my DH to spit on a hanky so I could clean his face!

    HESTER - well done on your eBay sales!

    ALIBOB - we love Brighton - I think it's one of the most exciting places in the UK. The atmosphere there is always positive and uplifting. We found a 'dirty weekend' hotel there and have been a few times (we stayed in the Nookii room, last time!).

    AUSSIELASS - do they have charity shops in Australia?

    I've just been looking at the 'free food' thread which is fascinating - I'm going to buy some of the books that were mentioned.

    Anyway, off now - hope to call in later; I'm babysitting so I don't know what time I'll be back.
