    Afternoon all.

    Sorry been awol all week.

    My dad got rushed into hospital tuesday, collapsed and couldnt breathe, has a lung infection. He is waiting a lung transplant as has a rare lung disease anyway. Scary times, but he is out now and ok.

    Then youngest sons friend got run over hit and run, broken pelvis both sides, fractured shoulder, head glued. In a bad way.

    We had weekend booked away, i got my leg caught in my handle of bag and ended up falling out the car and thudded to the ground like a bag of spuds, smashed my hands and knees up, im aching all over now :(

    Oh Sarah. Glad Dad is a bit better. Hope all goes as well as it can for your sons' friend. Thank goodness you haven't broken anything. Things always seem to come in three's. Take care and hugs. x

    Sarah.

    Omg what a terrible time for you, as if there is not enough going on

    I am please your dad is a bit better and only hope that the resilience of youth help the lad through. Such a dreadful act to commit by the driver

    And finally you. You may be sore for ages so look after yourself. A few treats and lots of rest when you can manage it

    Hope that’s your 3 things over.

    Thanks all.

    My DS is speaking with the lad, he is ok, other than broken bones, and in a lot of pain, thankgod he is ok, its just awful that someone can hit a child and just drive off and not acknowldedge it.

    I am aching all over, my legs, arms, shoulders, neck feel like I am carrying lead weights round.

    A few goof fillers A v T. The creme eggs are for the easter bunny (I will need to hide them very well if they are to last that long). Thanks for the golden syrup. Good bargain & yes, I actually bought soup. DD suddenly decided she liked tomato soup when there was no glitch.

    Does the Tomato Soup pick up M?
    (I know the Cucumber keeps losing me about 15p everytime they buy it on a shop where M comes out the best comparison - which is currently about 70% of receipts for me:rotfl:.)
