    Forgot to say, the lovely lady I work with bought me a bunch of daffodils today - just because. How nice is that, just a simple thing but so much appreciated :)

    Now Mr SA's switched us to 24 hours in A&E - a logical follow on from the ambulance programme I suppose. I think I'll go to bed before we move on to a programme about funerals.

    Yeah bet you never want to see another ambulance - not even on TV. I know I used to love hospital programmes - I can’t even watch casualty these day - seen enough to last me a lifetime :D what’s Mr SA like

    I miss my M&S, I went into town tonight and it’s all pound shops, charity shops and coffee shops. Well done on the bargains.

    Hope the excema is calming down.

    Daffodils sound lovely - a kind deed can really make a difference.

    Just popping in to say thank you by watching your interview I was nudged (that should read pushed) into sorting out my credit card and overdraft. I should now see the debts reducing gradually.
