    Well done to DS1! :T :j :T

    Is he going to get a reward for his efforts, Lucky?
  • He certainly will Robin - they both will. They are thinking about what they want :D.

    DH a mix of confused, angry and slow today :(.very frustrating.

    I've now almost finished painting DS1's room. Radiator has been primed so just need to paint it tomorrow then it's done. Then we need new furniture and carpet.

    Signed up for car insurance but opted for monthly payments. Can't justify paying for it outright while we have so many other things going on, and kids break up next week. It's an extra £26 a month to 'find' but hopefully that'll be ok.

    6 more school days :j.

  • Gutted about events in Nice. Enough now :(.

    Still no PiP decision letter. They did say 4-6 weeks but text we got on Tues made me hope we'd hear soon.

    DH has been a little bit better today.

    One coat of paint hasn't been enough on radiator :(.

    DS1 found a carpet he liked which worked out at £191 :eek:. I did some research and we've found a better one for £130 including underlay, so I've ordered it. It's being fitted on Wednesday.

    Need to take car to garage. Couldn't see where the oil leak was coming from but now it smells of burning :eek:. More expense :mad:.

    Sorry re car..and agree re Nice and attempted coups in Turkey. No particular fan of Erdogan but in the mayhem its ordinary people who are injured or die.

    Hope you have a good weekend PLMBL and your boys (all of them ;)) are good
