Morning, hope you all had a good weekend. I was working and boy was it hot. I had sweat running down my face most of the day,it was so hot in the home. Fans didn't seem to help at all so glad i have today off. They have said today is the last day of high tempetures so have to make the most of my day off. Already have washing out. Know what you mean about the mag dailies not working, it's thrown my routine out today...lol. Hope you all have a lucky day.

Decided taxi was my best bet for travelling today and girl in taxi office told me as I was doing multi bookings they have have a daily local like the buses. So have got six local journeys for £10 anywhere within bounderies. It costs me that to get to DS's and back by taxi. So pleased with that had to nip over to office and prepay it first which wasn't a problem as it is more or less across the road. If I needed to change return time just had to phone them as long as I kept between 9am and 5pm They have loads of cars and work 24 hours. All day local which I normally buy on bus is £3.50 for as many journeys as you want but thought toe deserved it lol.

Different subject. Yaaaaay have finally got a decission from the council who did not believe I was the only one who lived in this house. They are sending me a lot of money in a bank transfer as I would not accept a cheque. So have now got a single person discount. Was furious the first time they refused and very upset as I gave them a lot of documentation including a death certificate. They kept saying because DS was in navy he would be there at some time and he was married at the time. They had a copy of that but because DIL was from the area she could be there as well. When they brought GK's in to it I went into charge mode. They had better send the apology (written) or I will still be after them via newspapers. (they have been told this)

Have to say feel so sorry for DIL as she was paying when she moved back from DS's transfers from the navy and everything was taking forever but that is why I fought it. ( he was in plymouth and portsmouth then went to Helensborough) I worked as a civil servant and with local council and could see why they go wrong. But for goodness sake when you have evidence look it to it and get a grip I was also a branch secretary for the union USDAW and things went wrong for shop workers as well. The customer is always right according to employers but not always.

You can tell I was angry but not always and breathe:D:j

Alls quiet here again. DD2 went home late last night so the children were asleep. We had a great weekend especially as it was so sunny. Able to have some meals out in the garden. I managed to cut grass before they came. It felt like feeding thousands what with DD2 + SIL + 2 GKs + DS staying here plus DD1 + 1GS. Coming everyday (6 adults, 3 GKs).

Know how you feel Sylvia will be quiet again when school starts. Well done on TV win.

Sheils and Wingo great you were able to meet up. Wonder if your girls stayed in tent all night.

Katie well done on working on the rota sure it has helped everyone. Great to hear from you.

Indie hope your pains are feeling better. It's much cooler today. It must have been terrible for you working in that heat and for your clients.

Rose hope you toe is better.

Firefly take care. It was even hot in the house late last night. Much cooler now.

Alfie rain forecast soon. I expect your garden looks stupendous. All I can say here the over grown shrubs provided welcome shade.

Well cant believe the EOM comps are here. This month has flown by.
Good luck everyone with them.

Brilliant that you're getting the money back rose - well done

tent all night?

Sounds as if you have been incredibly busy of late leanfun -
lovely to be able to eat out in the garden too thanks to the
beautiful weather. :T


No rain here yet although it was predicted. It's quite bright
and breezy at the mo. Went out earlier and gave all my patio
plants a good drink. Must admit though ... it's definitely
feeling a bit cooler out.


Well best go and get on with a bit of comp catch up and
maybe tackle the huge pile of ironing. :eek:


Have a lovely and lucky day all - take care.
