    lubylou, personally I'd try some magic medicine, to get rid of the germs, juice or whatever fed on a spoon (if you've got an old medicine bottle all the better) I do this with my sons aches and pains if I suspect it's something else causing it, maybe anxiety, liking the fuss etc, then if it persists I take them to see the GP (usually magic medicine fixes it and we figure out the source of the problem some other way) My son had a major germ obsession which thankfully has calmed a little.


    Thanks very much - thats a good idea. Got some immune system booster medicine in the cupboard so think I'll give her some of that and see how we go.

    YES!!!! tax credits back up! whew!!!!

    They dropped by £40 a week after I changed my bank details a couple weeks ago, pain in the butt!

    Now I can work out what is savings and what is for bills :eek:

    Been doing lots of washing today. I have even ironed, though i have more to do, teh stuff that has sat in a pile so long it got creased. Serves me right for being lazy.

    I don't seem to be making headway though....

    eBay, I have 1 bid on one item ending tomorrow, but have found loads of kids clothes and more to come out the drawers. . Is it better to make up bundles for the cheapy clothes? And things like the 5 scooby doo t shirts of DS1's? Oh and I have a load of Claire's earings and stuff, never been used, still in packages, so they can go too.

    Right more ironing while trying to ignore DS1 whining that he is bored.
  • Anyone up for a HHC 2.30-3?

    me although at this rate it will be more 245 - 3;15

    I am going to finish sorting out my clothes

    AND tidy up my underwear drawer.

    some people are so ignorant. i lent some towels to a 'friend' as she had her family staying. she's just bought them back and i went to put them away and they are filthy. i phoned her up and told her she could flippin well pick them up and wash them and she said...well i thought you had plenty of time on your hands. i think NOT!

    pigpen - is it the bathroom tomorrow? i've got a house full after school so there's no way i can sit and do nothing. thought i could cheat and get on with tomorrow's list.

    do you think i'd be daft climbing into the attic to start sorting stuff out in there? we've got a proper ladder so i should be able to get up with one hand????
