    Anyone know what car Lewis Hamilton drives? And while I'm at it, during the war how did they know to start the sirens so that people could go and hide in the air-raid shelters, and what size is a jumbo jet's engine? :confused: I could go on, and on, and on...._pale_ :D:D

    Pink, as an F1 fan I knew Lewis drives a Maclaren Mercedes. Wasn't around during the war so can't answer that one! Know what you mean about the questions, although my 9 yr old thinks he knows it all!

    Have just dropped my all knowing 9 yr old off with his Dad so have a just over a week to myself, shame I am starting a course on Monday (yes on the bank holiday - that's the Army for you, they just don't care!!) So will be up to my eyeballs in homework - anybody know about double entry book keeping?:eek:

    Sat here watching pre-recorded F1 Quals with a beer - uninterrupted - bliss:rotfl:

    Anyway hugs to those in need, and well done to those deserve it! and don't get me started on ex OH's (although we were only together for 4 months, just long enough to get me pregnant and run).

    Have a lovely weekend.

    evening all,

    Had a lovely day, tidied through this morning, then nipped to Mr T for nibbles for tonight, we have friends comming for drinkies, I just go some nice cheeses, and cold meats with dips and crisps, so nothing too difficult, I also got some mini breaded camembert, which just need heating through on the oven.

    We then went for a long walk in the woods, little dog is tired out, and we saw several deer, and a very young fox.

    Well better go and get food ready, have good evenings all xx

    Hi there

    Neave - so sorry 2hear about another accident last night. My husband before he retired was very big in Scotland Road Safety and would advocate 20 is plenty for a lot of areas.Not managed to keep up today as I have been really busy in the garden. Have totally turned over the soil, watered and have spent all my Garden Club tokens (£55) buying new pots, some geraniums and some busy lizzies. Off to B&Q to get the cheap and cheerful tomorrow. Just back garden rockery to weed and then I will be sorted.


    I know someone is celebrating their birthday today -apologies - the birdbrain has kicked in from this morning. Hope you have had a lovely day.

    Thinking about PenPin and Smoky.

    Lots of love to everyone else.

    Thank you Ceridwen & Hester - I shall let you know when I've got something up & running.... confessions of a slummy mummy perhaps?! lol

    Grumpy children's club definitely needed, had another big row with mine cos oldest 2 were beating 7 bells out of each other (aged 16 & nearly 15...) so I said we were'nt going out for a meal after all if they were going to act like 2 year olds. Which led to oldest disapearing to bedroom (good, meant it was quiet) and middle DD wailing & much gnashing of teeth for ages. I stuck to my guns though :) Shouted back at them & then cried - obviously it had an effect as middle & youngest are now being very nice.... Oldest I think has gone to sleep apparently....

    I did explain to them that they weren't the only ones cross that their father has let them down again, but behaving like that & taking it out on me really doesn't help either.

    Anyway, I went & got some chinese when things calmed down a little & my mum came & joined us as she would have been coming out with us. I have said that things are not going to carry on like this though....
