Hi M4rtin, how's things going for you? Not seen you for a while, hope you're ok



Happy Birthday to your youngest son emerald. I'm 38 :eek: my eldest is 42, next is 35, then 28 and baby is 27 in July :rotfl: :rotfl::rotfl:



Funny isn't it how numbers play such an important part in our life . I've always felt young in my head since reaching 38 :cool: probably with having last 2 children later on and as I act as I used to act as taxi for them, still do now and then, to gigs, band practise etc I'm great friends with most of their mates.

Mainly I feel it's my style of living and dressing. I live in long skirts, old hippy :eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Nooooo you should be 43 . You have to be at least a year older than your eldest :rotfl::rotfl:

Beautiful day in bed :eek: never heard it described as that before

It's lovely spending time with just 1 child on his own:cool::j:j
Sometimes it's easy to get caught up with silly stuff that doesn't matter at all and lose sight of what's important in life
Simple things like time with a loving wife and children matter most:)

so I decided to grow a back bone and message eldest child and just tell her that I still thought £600 for a dress for one day was ridiculous

but to my shock I got a reply straight away to say she agreed.

I said there has to be a solution to this problem, we just have to keep worrying away at the problem.

we have not had a fiPhonight or fallen out about anything for so long now and I know the dress is a pivotal point I didn't want to upset her but at least I know we are thinking along the same lines

Glad your both thinking along the same lines.it would be a terrible thing to full out over. But weddings are so stressful. You saw dd2 dress it was lovely but cost under £200. luckily neither of the girls want to waste money, dd2 is saving for mortgage and dd1 has not sold her second house so is paying the mortgage on that. First house is mortgage free though. Dd1 reckons her wedding will come in at well under £4000 and that includes paying for the youth hostel all weekend for people to stay. Dd2 was just under £5000 and that was renting 6 cottages as well for 4 days .

If anyone has seen the sun this week please can we borrow it for a few days, we seem to have been under a continual grey blanket since Monday ..

I think its going to be a constant struggle to stop things sliding into a morass today.

put a towels and underwear wash on (mine only) and then 10 minutes later I found I'd dropped undies on the bathroom floor so they will have to go in with the bedding wash

Even worse - we seem to be having a problem with our sky email. Firstly we kept getting the box up asking to input the password so OH went and changed the password yet again and this seemed to fix it.

yesterday outgoing emails seemed to hang and the error message said we had a conflict. Emails were slow to go and the password box was coming up again.

OH said he had fixed it but this morning Id just done a test message and its not gone and the conflict message still shows.

that's bad enough but while OH was twiddling about yesterday Ive now got all emails coming in en masse and all of my message rules have gone.
I've got a complicated set of message inbox folders and message rules set up so that each email automatically slots into specific folders - that way I can instantly see what new things have come in and need dealing with and important things don't go missing.

so now everything is going into the general inbox, about a thousand emails a day and 95% dross - a few things I am waiting for a reply to could easily just get drowned

and there is no point in me starting again, doing the long slow laborious job of remaking rules yet if OH is going to do more fiddling about.

oh well ....

mhoc have you seen those new washing machines i think are samsung which have a little hatch in the door that you can add washing to a wash that's already on? i'd love one but they are sooooooo expensive :eek:

one of the charity shops locally had an upstairs floor which was solely bridal wear and occasion wear. I am wondering if it still it, might be worth going to have a look anyway
