Anyway I wasn't well at work so they sent me home. I am in my pjs taking it easy. I don't really do illness so am not a good patient. However today I am just going to sit and do not very much.
Absolutely with you on not doing being ill well - but sounds like home is the right place to be with a stomach bug. Hopefully you're feeling a bit better by now.

Hi Cumbrian Lass
A coat for £15 sounds excellent and good value. Better than my necessary purchase today of two replacement bulbs for my halogen oven - £23.98! At least you will get pleasure from yours.
I'm glad to hear you are feeling better although not so good about the children. Mind you, you will probably get more cuddles.
I'm off in a minute to walk to the library. I have found reading a real book is better for me at night as I drop off much easier. If I have my tablet on, I keep surfing on and on rather than starting to settle down.
Have a good weekend, take care honey
