    Morning all,

    Had a lovely day with DGS. He woke up from his afternoon sleep cranky so I was glad to see the back of him. :D It's so nice being a granny. You can give them back. ;) DH phoned and will be home later on. Tea is leftovers so I'll go and sort that out shortly. Well not much else to report atm. Will pop back later.

    Smoky I hope today isn't hard on you & the kids. <hugs>
    PenPen Have a great day at the pig farm tomorrow. :D
    Twink I suppose the dried vegetables are from China. You do know they wee on all their veggies don't you. :p

    Hope all those with the lurgy get better soon.

    Hope you all have a lovely day. Byeeeeeeeeeeee
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)

    Morning all!

    I'm dying on the sofa....I did my first actual 5k (ish) this morning and I'm impressed with my time 33 minutes, however, as previously stated, death is a side effect...

    Well, I need to put the pots in the dishwasher, tidy the living room flor and go to the evil place.....grrrrr. But I'm off to leeds tomoorrow to buy shiny new bras, big b**bs are bad for buying new bras. Kinda exciting, how sad am I???


    Well done - but I notice you managed to text your Dad but not me:rotfl:

    Or are you just asuming I'll read it on here;)

    morning campers

    smoky - hugs to you for today

    hugs to everyone else who's poorly - It must have been me who's been dishing out the lurgy - I'm still coughing a month later - remember sharing is caring :)

    last day of sATs today - yay - it's still maths so not too bad for dd. exoh is coming round tonight to pick her up for the weekend so we might go out for a quick celebration meal. Some delivery compny that I've never heard of tried to deliver all my orangey things for euro 2008 last night so I will leave work early in the hopes that they try again this evening - otherwise it's between 6 and 12 quid to arrange a convenient time - yikes.

    blimey I'm late - have fun!
    I'm going to feed our children non-organic food and with the money saved take them to the zoo - half man half biscuit 2008

    Good morning everyone,

    Smokey - you are in our thoughts today xx

    mrs mix :grouphug:

    Taplady and Shez :hello:

    PP - In case you have gone tomorrow before i get here, i hope all goes well over the weekend and next week xxx

    I have read the thread, but i then went to do the school run, so i cant remember anything now!!!

    Not much happening here today, dont have anyone to look after, which is lovely because im going to have a bath and maybe watch a dvd, but i do need the money - but hopefully that will all change after half term - will be finding out tonight if i have the 2 before and after school and then Sunday for the LO.

    Thank you everyone who asked about my leg - still feeling a bit tight, but a lot better so i def think its the flat sandals, so when ever i walk a long distance, i think i need different shoes now.

    OK, off for my bath!!!

    Have a lovely day everyone,
    Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Hello everyone :hello:

    I've been MIA for a few days as I've been busy at work and we've been doing some fierce negotiation over a house. We've just had our offer accepted :j It's our first ever house and we're so excited and nervous! Have to really get our heads down and watch the spending now, the house needs rather a lot of work doing to it.

    Aussie, could I ask roughly what your grocery budget is? If that's not too cheeky. We're so enjoying all the new foods that we've been a little slack on watching the pennies and we've rather lost sight of what we should be spending.

    I'm so excited that I can't really type straight!

    Hugs to anyone who is in need

    Almo
