    LadyMorticia thats a lovely dress.


    Morning All, had one horrible day yesterday. First time my OH has really seen me that down. It doesn't happen often but when it does its horrible, I just feel tearful and emotional. Had totally worn myself out and by bed time I was out cold. Feeling brighter this morning and the nice welcome on this thread yesterday helped too.

    What interests you? There's lots of free and cheap courses out there Its coming upto end of term for most colleges but some run summer short courses. If you look up Learn Direct on the web they should list all the courses near you.

    To be honest, nothing really interests me. I'd like to get A-Levels in Biology, Chemistry and Maths, because the only jobs I can think of that I'd like are science or medical jobs.

    Fg - Have you tried looking at the ICS website? They are generally good and they offer A levels and GCSEs too. Depending on subject it costs about £300 though excluding registration and exam fees. :(

    Thanks LM! Just had a look, and there are a few things I could do: Biology, Maths, Sociology, Pyschology or Accounting. Shall discuss it with OH, although I'm sure he'll try and persuade me to do all of them at once!

    I have the same problem with my skin when I get cold. A little bit of fake tan helped mine. Poundland have the Holiday skin one at the moment.

    Fg - Only do as much as you can manage hun. You know what you can and can't do and what your limits are. Don't let anyone else try to push you into doing too many things. Only you know what you're ready for. :)

    Unix - Fake tan does sound like a good idea actually. My skin is so pale. Might have to get one with SPF though. I bypass tanned and go straight to burnt usually.lol.
    I once applied fake tan to my face when I was younger. I looked hideous. Made my friends laugh though. :rotfl:

    Cool dress, LadyM, was it a charity shop bargain? I miss charity shopping, there are very few here.

    Steph, hope you had a great weekend in York. I used to live there, lovely city.

    Shaz, is it you that has twin sons with Autism?
