Morning all. Late because I got up late and went to bed late. Did the tip run, accidentally threw away the good bucket, so had to ask nicely if they could help, one of them fished it out, nice bloke, and managed to chuck away the one with holes instead eventually. In my defence, they're both black soft buckets, I got distracted, hence the throwing away...oops...I did pick up a wicker basket off someone which I've decided to plant the tree in eventually when I ig it up. I put it way too close to the what is now a bay tree not a few twigs, so it's got to moved if I want it to live. Well, it won't actually be in it, it will just be around it. Today I have blood this afternoon and I must get a handle on appointments. I've forgotten some again because I have't been checking daily.nanny, glad your niece came round briefly, and hope she's resilient for what comes next. snoozer, fingers crossed for that too, can't be fun spending that much time every day travelling. Scarlet, enjoy your same old
Chris, hope your holiday is the right length this time! TA, enjoy your day with your friend..Izzy, good to know he's ticked the no compications box this time..And you know you're going to have to run a marathon every single week at least to make up for the work ou won't be doing in 254 days time
Gers, that's odd...You can just tell people, 'you should see the other guy'
camelot, enjoy your social day! Rosy, your tea sounds nice..Hope your cotton lasts today...dp1, that's a lot of to-ing and fro-ing, hope the show is good! Ruby, enjoy shopping with your mum, I hope you managed to see the nephew off too. bella, just gives you more time to visit garden centers in the meantime
Take care all...

Evening!
I've been in the office today so couldn't sneakily post - how inconvenient! My VR application has been scored and it's not looking great so DH will be ecstatic! Think we find out in August sometime so won't hold my breath.
Have just had a rant at DD who yet again (3rd month running) has failed to pay her full student rent. As I'm the guarantor I get a nasty email from the rental agency. Tore her off a strip as we pay her £300 of the £520 plus she works 30 hours/week in M&S and has a student loan. No excuse and told her she's going to get a poor credit rating if she carries on. It's called adulting!
Happy anniversary @IzzyBee and MrIzzyBee. Glad he is making good progress and is now able to shower! Just goes to show your stamina if no-one else can hack the pace!
Have fun seeing SD @dp1
Have a good evening all - longest day today and exactly one year until DS1 and DIL2B get married whoop!
