    Thank you :)

    Quiet morning here. Outside is much clearer but it's still really cold!

    I hope it stays clear so DS's party can go well. We are all ready for it though.

    I think I must have worked money out wrong somewhere, need to do some juggling around :cool: Least the payments are made and it's tight rather than things going unpaid.

    The party bus has confirmed it will still be here tomorrow. So at least that's a relief. Just hope the friends turn up now :rotfl:

    Can't believe he's 9 :eek: Amazing how quick it goes.

    Sorted the money issue. I'd accounted something twice. Maybe not as tight as I thought. However we have been frittering quite an amount picking odd things up. Need to sort it out. A lot of the food we'd built up is running out so we are nearly at the stage where we will need to do a true weekly shop. So this needs some thought and how to keep to a budget.

    Hope DS has a fantastic party. We had to postpone DD's on Thursday, she was so upset. Glad you sorted the money and things aren't as tight as you thought.

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

  • Morning lovely,

    Sorry to hear DD is poorly, hope she'd on the mend soon xx
