morning all , i have just read up here quickly CT hope you are enjoying your time with Dau ,My son is off this week GF is here so feel like a gooseberry ,I am on the day shifts so no ttoo bad they have some friends coming round tonight ,so they need to do some chores as i wont have time ..
I am allowing plenty of travel time today cos they are resurfacing the in part of the A68 which is the main road from this way into Darlington Buses are being diverted along with the rest of the rush hour .And also all the bus stands have been rearranged so all teh buses have different departure points and times lol .

Morning all - hope you made it into work on time Maz. Just you watch, the water board or someone else will come along and dig up the road just as its finished :-|

Like most on here, we don't 'do' halloween either. I used to get some dried fruits and wrap them into little bundles, but frequently ended up with them not being taken. Apart from next-door who don't celebrate 'Christian' festivals there is only one other family with children and they are kept on a tight rein.

Hope you are enjoying having your daughter stay CT. They soon slip back into bad habits, don't they?

Our Cornwall friends came round for a meal out yesterday evening - Despite only seeing them in person about once a year within 5 minutes we pick up the conversation as if it was yesterday. :-D

How's the decorating going YG?

Evening everyone.

Didn't anyone make Mersey a cup of green tea :-( :-( :-( You are all awful :-D :-D
I would have made it for you if I had been here, Mersey :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D <3 <3 <3

Well, the workmen have finished. The last job of filling in two holes in the outside wall where the original waste pipes had been fitted has been done. It has been signed off by the clerk of works and I have finally got rid of them! They didn't fit the new carpet plates though, so I will get the carpet fitter to do that next week when they refit the bedroom carpet.

The bedroom is decorated and I now just need the wardrobes. I have also arranged to have the lounge and two halls painted in early December. So, the four weeks turned into quite a marathon. I now have to wait for the damp proofing company to contact me about inspecting the wall in the kitchen, but I will be on their case if they don't hurry up.

I am pleased that you had an enjoyable time with your Cornish friends, DET. I used to live in Bodmin and Wadebridge and it brings back happy memories thinking about Cornwall :-) :-)

YG nope ive been parched all day so I have :-( :-( <3

I will be back in abit :-D :-D :-D

Well, I think they should all be put in Nut Lodge's compound for the night as a punishment :-D :-D :-D :-D

YG lock them up and throw away the key :-D :-D

Get the kettle on and i'll get the shortbread fingers!! :-D ;-)

Green tea coming up the kettle has just gone on Mersey. Can I have a biccy please I am Hank Marvin ;-)

Evening YG. Took me a minute to read back the thread. I am so pleased your home is getting back to normal.

Oooops sorry I didnt see you come in LG....hands Shortbread on posh plate enjoy :-D

Oooops, I nodded off whilst watching Ben Fogle and missed the shortbread and LG :-D :-D :-D :-

Morning one and all. It's a bit spooky here as Mini Gooners are haunting me

Morning all -

Good to read that the decorating is coming on nicely YG. Wasn't there some mention of already having a wardrobe replacement?

However pleasant the GF might be, I bet you're pleased that you don't have to play gooseberry for a few days Maz. Is there any chance that she can do Supply work until she can get a permanent job, or does she have to complete the first year being mentored?

We've got a packet of Jasmine Tea. Will that do for Mersey, or would you prefer some of OH's Earl Grey?

Have a good day - I'm hoping to persuade OH to help me take some stuff to one of the charity shops in town.

Afternoon all,

Daughter has just set off back, with a lot more stuff than she arrived with - she did the charity shops whilst she was home, and at least has now got a nice winter coat. We had a good night with family and friends who were round for food and drinks and to see her during her short visit.

Hospital appointment for me this morning, I was supposed to be having challenge tests, giving me things which I think make me ill and monitoring how it affects me. OH had day off work knowing that I've been worked up at the thought of it for months, and thinking I may not be well enough to drive back. What a waste of time that was! No tests done because another consultant hadn't got back to him to arrange things. Apart from waiting 30 mins in waiting room (not bad) I was there for 5 mins and didn't even take my coat off

>>>>>>> Happy Halloween to all you ickle Pumpkins>>>>>>>>. :-D :-D
