    Hhmph .... the buyer has messaged to say they don't want it now :mad: Why do people bother to bid?? :cool: I've sent a second chance offer to the next highest bidder (£37), let's see if they still want it :o

    The second chance person hasn't come back to me yet, however I've sold a different item for £15, it was one that has been relisted lots of times with no interest :)

    Ds and I have been into town this evening to see the lights; they've been billed as a huge wonderland, even provide a map of where the 'walk' starts and ends ... however, although the main bit was fantastic, the rest of it was almost non-existant. Never mind, the dog enjoyed the walk :D

    So, ds has his mocks this week, I'm expecting a very stressful week, they finish on thursday so I'm hoping we can make it that far without too much bother :o

    Made it through two days at school so far this week, ds is coping well so far. 2 more to go for him but the exams that are left are the ones he struggles with the most. Hopefully he'll manage :o

    I had a meeting today with a parent who was possibly the most unpleasant person I've ever had the misfortune to meet. She literally spits venom with everything that comes out of her mouth. I almost pity her as she is so thoroughly nasty, but its one of those that keeps playing on my mind and I can't switch off from it :(

    Bath is done, pj's on, dinner is almost ready then it's an evening of chilling and maybe some online Christmas shopping as time is running out and I'm just not feeling it whatsoever :o

    No hope for her child then.

    Hope all goes well for your DS.

  • Hope the meeting was OK. I have a lot of contact with school due to my youngest, I like to think I am polite and nice. Don't see the point of making enemies of the people in charge of my child six hours a day!
