    Oh Mar I feel for you and that blasted monitor. I now refuse to have it and get a portable one to take away for a week and test myself twice a day. Much more realistic readings. In the meantime relax and take it easy, that goes for you too Karcher.
    Nice to see you back Fuddle
    I will join you on the cruise if I may and I will take charge of our furry friends if you like
    Have fun in Spain WC at least the weather will be better than you have now.

    Long time MSE'er resurfacing after losing my username/login details from the 'old' me!

    Many moons ago, I used to be a dancer on cruise ships - can I come along with you please? I could probably do a passable version of the can-can....

    Also, on the subject of ex's and Parents Evening - my ex brought along his girlfriend as well because 'she's the one who helps DS with his homework' ...... poor teachers didn't know where to look or who to speak to!!

    Welcome Cocketts. I take it that you know what you are getting into here. It is a sweet, supportive, loving, hilarious madhouse.
    I'm afraid that my can-can days are well over, if in fact they ever began, but I will certainly enjoy the spectacle, particularly if certain members of this group decide to join you.

    Well, the island is becalmed at the moment - no wind, well not outside anyway, Millie is doing her best to redress the balance inside the house. However, wind and rain are forecast for a couple of hours time. I must get myself into gear and get up to the shop before it all kicks off

    Doubtless I will be back later to catch up on everyone's exciting lives.

    THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

    Right now I'm having amnesia and deja- vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.
    I believe that friends are quiet angels

    Do you really think it's wise to let Mar be in charge of the jelly babies. - just saying.
    Of course we'll collect you MMF - we will need more rum supplies and you can let your inner Patsy reign
    As our crew is going to be too many for either Hesters boat or mine we need a bigger boat especially as the elephant will be on board in cases of marauders (we can easily deal with pirates - rum cocktails and cheese scones and they'll show us where they've hidden their treasure) but as all vessels are she - she will need a name - suggestions please.
    Small victories - sometimes they are all you can hope for but sometimes they are all you need - be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle
