    likklegibbon just to say - if anything (heaven forbid) goes wrong with the Big Day, don't sweat because you will have a great story to tell as you grow old together.

    That's how I got through the disasters of my wedding, just thinking that one day, this will all be a well repeated anecdote :rolleyes:

    Sounds like DS is napping AT LAST so down to start the list. Sigh. But managed to get replacement comfort toy from him (sorry, mudbath, from IKEA, but it was a Christmas only one and they had stopped doing it before I realised he LOVED his pandy. Ebay is my friend)

    Won't be clearing under the sink - sink unit is collapsing due to effect of repeated flooding on chipboard. OH does not think we need a new kitchen, or even a new sink.

    Today is getting so pants and I am getting so little done that I think I will give myself a gold star for getting anything at all done.
    Always another chapter

    I am FURIOUS.. one of the mums at school has been told she cannot have a place for her little boy as he has autism and they won't provide the 1-2-1 care for him!! I am , along with another parent governor taking this up with the school and the LEA.. and the disability rights council.. they have told her twice he can have a place and now they are saying the nursery is full.. which I don't believe, they had loads of places before easter though I don't know how many new children they have just started. Even so, G should have a preferential place.. a. he has a sister there and b. he is older that the other new starters. The parents are struggling to get a statement and it isn't acceptable.. there should be provision for children like this.

    They want a fight.. that is exactly what they will get!!!

    Like his mum doesn't have enough on her plate as it is.. she is wheelchair bound, the youngest son is severely lactose intolerant and this ine has autism..

    oooohhhh.... stomp stomp stomp!!!!

    Right time for swimming, seriously getting nowhere today. I am not good in the cold.

    Hex - I have not got my pots in yet. Did do some peas in guttering today, they are in the garage until they get going as we have big mice problems outside - only a problem to me when they eat seeds. Cats do a grand job but don't get them all.

    Mudbath I'm off to I**A on Friday I shall be thinking of you!
