) and lives in 'Ull but we all have a cross to bear :rolleyes: (look at me, a Yorkie living darn sarf, how bad can it get?
) One thing has led to another and we met for the first time last weekend when I went oop north to see my dear old mum and dad. To say we got on well is an understatement as she's driving 300 miles down here next week to stay for a few days :A
I can honestly say that I've never been happier than I am now :j , which just goes to show that all the good folk on here were right when they said that it will get better. :T :T :T It has and how!!
Must go, the motorhome looks like a "bloke" lives in it :eek: and I'm currently wading through a thick layer of dog hairs
Don't want the dear girl to think I'm a scruffy s*d.
Take care all.
Man try

Congratulations Pippad :beer: :beer:
I know I have missed PP - but am sending positive thoughts her way.
(((hugs))) to Smokey & anyone else who needs one, especially the early risers on this thread today:eek:
Glad youve got some more children Catowen.
Horrible day here in the Essex house, OH woke me at 3am to say a van had broken down & he was going out to finish the round, took ages to fall back to sleep to wake at 7.30 when OH cooked us all a fry up - had his driver with him - then had to go out to meet the recovery driver leaving me with the kitchen to clean up which after OH's cooking is never fun.
Had to then go and see a friend which took longer than I thought. Decided to have a little sit down and then woke up at 6pm!
So have done sweet fanny all day, managed to cook dinner of barbeque chicken, ribs and chips.
Will have to get up early tomorrow and try and catch up, if the weather is nice (today has been awful) will try and get to the food show)
Benthosboy - Glad everything is going ok, was wondering when you were going to tell your news on this thread.
Off now to have a surf, then rubbish telly and chocolate before bed.

Not sure I dare ask but "What is froth?" Hate to imagine DH's face at the thought of pea froth!:rotfl:
Hester
Katy's idea of "not much" luggage may be on a par with her "five portions of fruit! so be very wary - how fast can you run if you end up dumping her at the airport?
Snag is that if you are not there to make sure she gets on the right plane she might end up coming back to you the same day like a boomerang!!!
Family enjoyed the Sandwich loaf I made in the BM yesterday so much that I have another one in the BM now!!!!
Took DD(14) to Leeds and bought her a mobile phone as her old one has gone missing. She is delighted with the one she chose and also being treated to a meal at Nandos before we came home.

I agree with the other posters that a dignified "withdrawal of labour etc" is the way to go. I have four daughters and have gone through this myself.
Big hug.
Managed to get some aparagus and mange toute which we will have tomorrow wih Jersey potatoes, cheese sauce and a gammon joint. Also got some fresh coriander so might make onion bhajis and a split pea or lentil curry
on Monday.
Hugs to Penny Pincher and thanks to Twink for letting us know how she is getting on."This site is addictive!"
Wooligan 2 squares for smoky - 3 squares for HTA

Hugs to all and congratulations to MR and MRS PIPPAD on the birth of your Son. Have only just skimmed the thread so appologies if I have misssed things.
Tutorial went really well. Am relieved other people fall asleep reading the study guide. I now know where I'm going with my literature search and feel quite positive.
DH has gone to work, nice and quiet here. Had fish and chips for tea, too tired to cook. Off to bed in a mo. Have a good night all.
