  1. My middle granddaughter had her 4th birthday party at one of these soft play centres - one of her little friends had a bit of a bump and was bleeding - so off I went in search of their 'First Aider' "oh no sorry we don't have one" (WHAT!) okay says I, I'm a First Aider so if I could have your first aid box, I can deal with it myself "oh sorry we haven't got a first aid box" 😡 I had to 'behave' as it was her party, but honestly that can't possibly be legal......suffice it to say I have never been in one since
  2. Great excuse to buy another louby - after lots of careful research obviously😄
  3. I had a little 're-think' about this and decided I was being a little irresponsible here - I have checked they are going to Cornwall - phew!
  4. 'Soft play' centres are allowed to open??? Is that because they are 'plastic fantastic' and therefore can be 'easily cleaned'? I am confused (it doesn't take a lot) - we can't have any 'soft furnishings' but they can open.......germ factories at the best of times in my humble
  5. Hello - where are all the 'Friday peeps'? I was sure someone would have beaten me to it! Here we are then another Friday - whoa - slow down a bit now please, I am not making much progress with the old TDL I have had a lovely morning, I have seen 4 out of my 5 grandchildren, which is lovely! My eldest granddaughter the one that I was so worried about yesterday is just full of positivity about her Uni place which is such a relief. She is going to attempt to sort out accommodation and finance this afternoon. i gave her a cheque from me and Mr S to add to her 'uni fund', she said "I would hug you, but you won't let me will you", nope it's not a case of i don't know where she's been, it's a case of I do know where she's been 🤦‍♀️ her and her group of friends went to 'Wetherspoons' last night to celebrate their results and their University places, bet there wasn't a lot of social distancing going on! Have also been up to my setting, I am starting to take 'stuff' up that has been 'decorating' my house for far too long! Managed the Post office this morning without any form of 'kerfuffle' unlike my first attempt 😮 Bumped into one of my new entrants and family as I walked back and we had a super chat - all appropriately socially distanced - lovely! Weather is so much cooler today - I have even put a cardi on (I do like a nice cardi) So yes - all good so far <touching wood> Hope the weekend is kind to all
  6. I read 'Little Fires Everywhere' and really enjoyed it I must not download any more books, I have lots ready to read (I expect I will though, I have no self-control when it comes to books)
  7. I hear thunder, I hear thunder Hark don't you? Rumbling about, not close.....yet!
  8. As always, you are very kind young Froglet, thank you x I haven't read either of those books, I will add them to my list of books to read
  9. I am so, so sorry for making such a bad-tempered post Young Froglet - I have read Dear Mrs Bird and I loved it, haven't read 84 Charing Cross Road but think I have seen the film (Anthony Hopkins) not sure if I am thinking of the right book/film
  10. Wish it was cooler here young Froglet - we had rain all night, but still just horribly hot and humid this morning. Mr S left the car windows down - I had a complete sense of humour bypass about that 'Results' only not results day for eldest granddaughter today, just had message from her 'grades were not good, but neither were anyone else's, decided to apply for Leicester because that's where I looked round and I really liked it and I got in' (She had been offered Leeds too) I am pleased for her obviously, but at the same time I am so fed up with this Government and the whiny voiced Gavin Williamson, why downgrade their predicted grades, totally unfair, they did not ask to be in this situation 😡 Government should have 'cut them some slack' She hasn't told me what her grades were, I am not going to ask her, she was predicted ABB - clearly that's not what she was awarded Anyway, just need to concentrate on the great news that she is off to Leicester, same Uni town, but different Uni as eldest grandson which is great - not sure what the position is Lockdown wise for Leicester currently - dear goodness I had momentarily forgotten about that 🤦‍♀️
  11. Looking good louby!
  12. Yay! Well done young Froglet!
  13. Sending love and best wishes to you zigzag, such a difficult time for you xxx P.S. what are your Committee doing - can they take on some of preparation for you?
  14. Oh my life - don't they drive you completely nuts 🤦‍♀️ I have one 'messing about' a bit too - think that I should probably just warn her that I am fresh out of patience - come, don't come, come for two days, or don't, come for three days, or don't - it makes absolutely no difference to me, just make your b****y mind up 🤣
  15. I love that louby - that's the spirit!
  16. Thanks both xxx
  17. It is quite comforting to read that others are not really joining the madding crowds either! My sister has just 'upset me' - phone conversation - we were talking about my return to pre-school in September (amongst other things) - I told her about all of the 'new' requirements and all of the 'new' procedures that I have put in place, I went on to say "it is now a case of suck it and see if I can't make this work safely then I will have to close for good" - she said "oh, yes it's really not worth it" - oh really, just dismiss my 'life work' just like that 💔 I did point out that it would be an enormous wrench and a really big deal for me to close the pre-school.......anyway, I just needed to share that with people who would understand
  18. Yes, it felt really strange Very, very hot here too - will just hide indoors for the rest of the day now We are six miles from our town, the accountants is on 'our side' of town so no need to go right in, so we still haven't ventured that far yet
  19. This is exactly how it works in my setting Oh and welcome to the forum
  20. Oh my actual goodness - I have been 'out' in the big wide world this morning, only to the accountants and to my setting, as we were driving to the accountants Mr S said "you know we haven't been down this road since March" (road to our nearest town) - crazy business!
  21. Oh why do you need to put sugar in - do you need to put sugar in? I really don't like sweet drinks...
  22. Sorry to be so shocking! 🤣
  23. Do you know I have never had an iced coffee...
  24. Oh I love samosas! Have just been chatting on the phone with a friend for over an hour which was just lovely Think I am about to write today off as yet another day with nothing much achieved
  25. Well you have 'almost' inspired me to have a look at that young Froglet - 'almost' being the operative word 🤣 I really need to know - have you finished the other sock yet? Very little happening here (still hiding from this ridiculous heat) - have had a bit of a go at the old TDL - I keep 'tweaking' things - really need to stop doing that! Mr S is busy making a repair to our upstairs loo cistern - we had a leak 🤦‍♀️ new parts ordered sharpish, can't be doing with flushing with a bucket!
