    I think they should get Peter Kay on Mrs Brown's Boys.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    Thanks Nellie, it's the not being there so can check on it too. Has put a real dampener on the holiday. Have suggested DD2 leaves water off until morning but not even sure if it is the mains pipe that is leaking. I'm sure it's only appeared in last 24 hours as I'm still at the stage where I walk in and admire it all in awe. :o

    It's just been a right booger of couple of days. What with my bad OA and then I got stuck in EE shop after paying for a mifi package as it didn't recognise the old sim anymore, they couldn't activate it "technical problems" apparently. :mad: I'm still not sure whether I have come out with what I wanted. :eek:

    And then Mr TS got a puncture on his racing bike while he nipped out for pint, he doesn't usually ride that bike there but had already got it out to ride camping.

    And then I have forgotten to bring any reading glasses with me. Already left the eggs on the side luckily DD2 realised and brought them with her. She has been in tears as depressed as she usually stays the week but with her dissertation deadline looming can't take more time out. Think she is bit behind, I do hope she copes with this last hurdle. :o

    Sorry I'm going on a bit everyone has gone to see MrTS's family but I am sat in our van alone, didn't quite feel like socialising tonight....

    I hope so. It's been nice here too.

    I have been thinking about the wedding a lot today, can't wait to see the photos and hear all about it.

    TS sorry about your leak, rotten thing to happen just as you're enjoying your new kitchen.:(

    Good Afternoon :wave:

    On way to mums and on way back I kept pulling foot out of Crocs and feeling the pavement checking temperature . I read on facebook if its hot could burn dogs paw/pads. I didn't burn my foot so our Poppy was ok. Bet she wondered what I was doing lol.

    Happy Birthday Ladyshopper :bdaycake:

    altojack made me laugh yesterday when she told me about her trollies around her ankles :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    My son lived in Spain for a time and when the sand was too hot for my feet it never effected his dog:)....and the pavements would be cracking and she was fine ...but must have been used to it as she was a July baby ... bless her when they came back to England and she felt the cold and the rain ...she never went out in rain bless her then she arrives here and pretty much had to acclimatise am sure your Poppy is used to snow and rain more than sun

    Well who is going to be my carer ...job vacancy

    I ordered the soap the other week from Boots ....forgot all about it then I

    come across 2 order numbers not quite sure what they were for so I

    signed in and checked on Boots

    Yes they were from there ...and I just see the Elizabeth Arden stuff I ordered on APRIL 1ST WAS IN STORE BUT NOT COLLECTED

    I have looked all over for that I thought I had hid it that well I couldn't find it

    There it is £100 worth so I took the number and went to pick it up she could not find it and said it will be in by Monday...

    I then told her it has been there since April and no refund back to my account

    MMMM she says she will get manager but can she just get rid of the queue ....5 people behind me ... the look on her face was priceless when I said No .. and I turned and said to the queue ..sorry folks but I had to stand in the queue too.The old lady behind me said

    Too right pet why should you go to the back of the queue ...she said I would have said NO too ..bless her

    But now I am wondering about some xmas stuff I ordered but never got

    BUT IF START THINKING IT WILL ONLY VEX ME SO

    as Forest GUMP SAID
    Stupid is what stupid do .....
