    Yes, WaS, in your situation I would email him. It probably won't make any difference but at least you know you tried, and telling us about it on here may inspire someone else to challenge something that they usually wouldn't so that is a good thing.

    elsien, I agree totally about 'dog'.

    Haven't read all the posts yet.

    Please may I borrow that today? Realised at 7.30 that something had gone very, very wrong with the work email and I could only fix it by actually going in to the office as the server is not externally accessible. Took all morning to sort out and I've just got home again.

    I don't know where my weekend went but I'd quite like it back again please.

    Everyone Ok?

    ETA - someone tell me if I want to go to see the play of "the curious incident of the dog in the nighttime?" I can't decide.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Quite happy with electrics though, electricity doesn't leak out and ruin the carpet :rotfl:

    :rotfl: that is funny. But it could end badly.

    Evening everyone,

    Big Hugs and handshakes and squishes all round.

    Busy weekend. went out to the cinema last night and saw stork. its a kiddie animation but was very funny. And the person who I went with is a big kid. And the adults laughed more than the kids.

    Cooked sunday lunch and managed to wear out a collie dog today. He has a love of plastic bottles and loves to play with them. So a 2L one was tied to string and to a tree and he just would not leave it alone :rotfl:and just been told doggy is flat out on the sofa :j

    The zip has just broken on my only decentish pair of trousers :mad: Need to see if I can fix that and the other pair that are broken. Got 6 pairs of jeans of two different sizes and can't fit in to any of them :mad:

    elsien, feel your pain about washing machines and MOT's. Had my own dramas a few weeks ago.

    Slept on my husbands sofa this afternoon for about an hour an half :eek: must have needed it.


    Hope everyone gets a good nights sleep.

    Yours

    Calley X
