    Jill - Hope you had a good night, must have been awful, but I do agree with pigpen, stupid place to bend down behind a car.

    AandWsmum - Hope all went well and it wasn't too bad.

    Polly - your cake inspired me, made coffee and walnut with butter icing. Sandwich sponges never come out right, don't know what I did but it was amazing, apart from it stuck in the tin so is a bit 'rustic'!!! Tastes delicious. (I know its not exactly weight loss food, but I did have it as desert at tea time!!)

    tracey - hugs for you and your family friend. x

    Man Bashing - Me too Me too! Won't go on as you have all said it but agree completely, and the babysitting thing!!!!! Told his uncle on fri night that he wouldn't be able to meet him at the pub till about 2 as I was working and he was babysitting, you do have to love them though, don't you?

    Jill - poor you, blooming stupid of the woman to stand/bend in the carpark - whats wrong with the pavement:confused: . Hope you have a good night tonight anyway.

    Michelle - Your post sounds calmer which is good!

    My DH bought me an i-pod today so he is in my good books. Have just download the soundtrack to Grease and the Duffy album. Guess what I will be listening to whilst flying tomorrow. At least it will brighten the school run up too:D .

    I am paddy whacked so off to beddy bo bos for me. Sleep tight, dont let the bedbugs bite (not that any of us would have any with all the hoovering of matresses that goes on here;) )

    and another thing....

    putting dirty clothes on the floor next to the washing basket

    You should think yourself lucky, I thought I was lucky if they were left in the same room as the linen basket and even luckier if they were near the basket :rotfl::rotfl:

    Just a quick post - had a lovely day in London with DS1, but now completely shattered.

    I did vacuum downstairs after breakfast, and have made a casserole for tomorrow, but was so tired after the day out that I got a takeaway for dinner tonight - a very rare, usually only for birthdays, event in this house!

    Work tomorrow...

    Hugs all round, especially for Jill, and also for Tracy.
