    In reply to various people.

    Ladyshopper-The ball !!!! in the tank in my roof broke off and the water ran and ran for something between 6-8 hours. All but one room to be redecorated. Lots of electrical points to be replaced, new carpets and a new kitchen. I have needed a new kitchen for about 10 years and as OH is moving back in we had already discussed having one and had even got a quote for the bathroom which we will probably have done when all this is going on. The one bedroom not included may be included now as the damp chap says the wall is wet but arguing with the insurance about that. Still a family in my hotel who live near me had a bad house fire day after me ( drunk husband put on the chip pan and fell asleep) and they only have building insurance as they cancelled the contents at Xmas.

    Bubbs- Regarding DD she is now awaiting an appt but is now also very constipated so I suggested a tin of prunes which she got and she said Mum how much shall I eat and I said the whole tin that should work. Constipation goes with anxiety in her case. But as you say at least she knows its happening.

    Mhoc-Hope he soon realises that you now have different house rules and abides by them. I remember how when my DD moved back at 21 after living at boyfriends for a year ( due to her fathers alcoholism) she was in the throws of a very anxious period and was really difficult to live with. I now know the messiness and inconsideration were a way to make me suffer as I did not let her move back soon enough.

    Sounds like a nightmare (but also kind of handy in a way as you'll be getting things done you wanted to do anyway, but this way you don't have to pay?).

    Absolutely love the mention twice of boyfriend. Sounds permanent. :T:T:T:Txx

    Oh, he is, I'm not letting him go anywhere. He is well and truly stuck with me! :rotfl:

    Fortunately he seems very happy about that! :D

    Were you given a target weight to lose bubbs?

    You seem very committed:T:T

    Funny how it kicks in isn't it. You were all upset when you heard and look how you are turning it around:T:T

    I've been looking at the frozen coupons I got from W a few weeks back and I'm so tempted to use them with my £6 off £30 shop, but even with freezer bags I'm not sure I'll get them back from Yorkshire in one piece:rotfl:

    I'll be dripping up the A1:rotfl:
