  • arlybarly things have certainly been tough for you recently. Let's hope things get much, much better for you soon.
    beemuzed (((hugs))) to you and yours.
    tattycath sounds as though your DD is having a ball!
    redruby how frustrating for you. Though, blurry can be good. I could do with some blurry glasses when I look in DS and DD's rooms. :D Wouldn't look quite so bad then.

    I'm also having a frustrating day today. Unpacked the *replacement* bed to find that the base slats are also missing from this one. :mad: :mad: :mad: Phoned Tesco, quoted my order number and before I could say anything the chap said "you haven't got the slats for the base". "Yes", sez I, in my most furious-but-controlled voice. "Yes", sez he, "we are aware of this problem and are sending slats out to everyone who has ordered one of these beds". No apology, nothing. I now have to wait until 11th February for the new slats to arrive. I was so angry that I have sent a 1500 word e-mail to Tesco (ok, slight exaggeration) detailing my anger and frustration and demanding a response. Of course, when you rule the world, like Tesco does, you don't have to pay too much attention to the little people. Will wait and see.

    Many congratulations to any Welsh rugby supporters. What a comeback! Fabulous stuff. Well done to the Irish too - though I'm not convinced that they deserved the win. :p Sorry to the English rugby fans. The team was too complacent in the second half imho and they paid for it. However I have to say it is nice to hear the commentators having to eat their words. :D Roll on tomorrow and whatever it may bring. Let's hope it's another upset - though I wouldn't bet on that. ;)

    Off to watch a fillum with DS and DD. Have a great night. xx

    Evening folks.

    I have been trying to read the daily, but not posted much recently. Work has been in the way.
    No snow here, just a ferry almost washed up on the beach.

    As part of my bid to get back to OS ways, some of my Seville oranges are magically transforming into marmalade as I type :D
    I asked on Freecycle for some jars, and now I have about 100, more oranges required I think. :rotfl:

    Hugs to all,
    Haribo, good to see that you are home with Nurse Pink in attendance.
    Hester, congratulations on the addition to the family.

    Panda....Glad Spain enjoyed you ;) :rolleyes: :D

    HARIBO what are you trying to suggest :whistle: :silenced: :shhh: :D

    I can confirm that the microfibre did not need a passport, no swiffing was done, no loos were cleaned by us and that Panda truly did keep up with the vodka ka ka challenge!!
    Oh i wish I was back :sad:
