PurpleTree Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Hiya, never let me go shopping with my mother again. We went to Matalan as she wanted to buy me a new dressing gown to take to hospital with me, I did point out that anyone who's just had a baby wouldn't be the slightest bit interested in the state of my dressing gown Anyway Homebase is next door so we went in there too, I'm now the proud owner of a new table and 4 chairs well I will be next week when they arrive. I sent hubby a photo of them before I bought them he just said 'yeah sure, whatever' Expensive dressing gown. Dan's all excited because he's going to his first footie match tomorrow, hubby's taking him to the City along with my grampy. Looks like it'll be good weather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 He'll have a fab time PT Em, those egg boxes are Well since I was last on, I have been to Sainsburys and bought ingredients, and then I have made tea which took 3 hours So far we have eaten our Starter and Main, but will have dessert later Phil was very very very impressed, although my cheesy buns were still a little doughy I won't tell you what I cooked, as I may include then on my June taster menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I passed on my 3rd attempt It took a friend of mine 5 attempts. Another passed on her 1st attempt and you really wouldn't want to go in a car with her even 18 years on, unless you had a death wish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted April 23, 2010 Author Share Posted April 23, 2010 Everyone says passing 2nd and 3rd time is best because you've learnt what you're bad at + had to improve. My friend is on try 5 and still hasn't passed. He's changed instructors now though, because instuctor'd book tests and tell him the day before! Someone else at school passed with 13 minors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I passed first time, I learned in 10 weeks as the company was offering me promotion and a company car - nothing like that to get you motivated Driving fast I am fine but I cant park/reverse/three point turn etc..

Valkyrie Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Hi Peeps, got the strop badly yesterday. Dragon lady was here - just as well there aren't any Georges in the family otherwise I might have been a goner! Happy belated St George's day - anyhow I prefer it if he makes friends with the dragon - I think the people are mean to the dragon - eat that wench I say! Well have tried piccies: Pancake frightens the girls so here she is separated with Murray. The other girls set a bad example so preening on the bench as soon as Murray vacates the area. Separation at night and here the pampered chicken is tucked in for bed. I went for a forty winks on the settee and woke up to see this in my face - didn't half make me jump. ERIN!!!!!!! I quite understand how the girls are scared of it! You know it was worth the wait!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted April 24, 2010 Author Share Posted April 24, 2010 (edited) Bad Kooj Thought it was odd that you got 1, then you said something about JL orps Eurgh. Parentals have somehow managed to mess up Student Finance so I just did the one that doesn't take them/household income into account Should get the same amount of money anyway I have a new passport that has an expiry date of over 10 years, and the system won't let me put it in so you have to send evidence through the post. But during the time of printing off the form, I've lost my passport! I'll turn up when The Borrowers have finished with it Forgot the chick updates, so shove them all in one Day 13: Appearance of scales and claws 14: Embryo turns its head toward the blunt end of egg 16: Scales, claws, and beak becoming firm and horny 5 days(hatch) Edited April 24, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleTree Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Fabby piccies Koojie You've cheered me up! Feeling down because I broke one of my plates, we had all matching ones for our wedding and this is the first one we've broken. Was one of the smaller, side plate-type ones and I don't think they make them anymore I don't know how it happened, I'd finished my sandwich and was walking back into the kitchen, and it just leaped out of my hands Olly cried his eyes out Dan's gone off to the footie with Hubby. He was very, very excited, just hope he behave himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
