  • My day gets even more productive. Gots loads of post this morning incl a quote for the renewal of my buildings and contents insurance (I forgot it was due at the end of this month). Halifax were quoting me £435 a year!! I searched through this site and have now got it for £201 a year plus £50 cashback. I'm sooooooo chuffed!!!

    I've had a bad day so far.

    Some of you may remember that my DH fell the morning of the Blackpool meet and we ended up in A & E with a thorn in his hand.

    Well, the thorn is still in there, he's still off sick, unable to use his blimmin hand. This morning we had to go to see a plastic surgeon, and he's going to operate on Monday :eek:

    My task between now and then, is to find out what kind of effing bush it is because they need to know :mad:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

    Good luck with that, pardon the pun but talk about "looking for a needle in a haystack"

    Would you believe it's not even our bush - it's next door's but it grows through the fence.

    The thorns on it vary, some are over an inch long, and it seems it's one of the big'uns that's in his hand.

    I'm going to take him straight after I finish school, so we'll get there at 4ish.

    They're going to operate under a local anaesthetic - he's 2nd on the evening list.
