    Pigpen - those are fantastic ideas. thank you. as they don't seem to have ideas i'm going to put all the ideas that i've got together and see if he'll take any of them on board. if anyone else has ideas i'd love to hear them. 6666 is very apt! xx

    Mudbath.. when you have compiled a list of ideas you could write to the governing body and ask to go to their next meeting to discuss your ideas/suggestions with them, or request a meeting with the chair!.. schools hate proactive parents.. and you won't just be helping your children you will be helping all the other youngsters who behave themselves and try to do well! Restorative practice is one of the new 'babies' of the LA's to definitely worth slipping that in.

    Oooh.. I get to be nosey!!

    The £875 was half gas and half leccy... but still :eek::eek::eek:

    My gas bill was about the same as my leccy - so £550 ish for the quarter. And DiL wonders why I nag her when she even LOOKs at the tumble dry. I tell her it's ONLY for emergencies...

    Dinner prepped and in oven (mediterranean lamb casserole that should have been in the slow cooker all day) on a medium heat. Just waiting now for the french door man.

    :mad: One is FAR from amused. Big TV (you know, I let the DH choose, 50 inch plasma) is going on the blink. Picture keeps going. Will look out the receipt and phone tescos.

    Kids are being PITA's! Big time. Being little brats at bed time and it is stopping now *foot down*.

    I will do the dishes alter and that's all the flying I am doing for today.

    How many aeros do you have to eat before it count as piggery???


    It all depends. Did you eat them standing up. Calories don't count unless you sit down to eat!:rotfl:

    GULP - I've just committed myself.......

    No, not to the funny farm (though some may say I should!) but to having my lovely large edwardian sash window (which, being 104 years old is well past it's sell by date) converted to upvc french doors which will open out into the garden.

    I feel nervous. It means chopping away at brickwork beneath the window but I am assured by the surveyor that all will be fine.

    Two kids in bed.

    I'm not in the mood for doing anything this evening.

    Just going to check banks online and then maybe see what is on tv

    I'm floundering. :(

    This working full time lark makes it very hard to keep up with the house.

    Beds haven't been changed this week - ewwww
    My plan to do a load of wash every night has gone by the wayside
    Floors desperately need washing
    Folded washing still on the couch from 3 days ago!

    ***sigh*** Please don't expel me. I'll catch up on Sunday - honest . . .
