Dare I say it, but I have blue skies, some white fluffy clouds, but that is all, after the 5 hour storm yesterday (did anyone else get the hail) it is positively summer here

Just thought I´d pop in and say hi! Just come online to sort some bits out as I´ve been making sure my Ofsted Cert arrived for my extra kids and overnight care - it came very very quickly, they waived my right to appeal and my bro said the cert came straight out! I now quite like Ofsted (for the moment anyway).

Anyway, hope you are all well, I´m still on holiday and can´t believe the things we keep hearing on the news about the floods and attemped bombings etc - don´t really want to come home but suppose I´m gonna have to

altire cant you ask for your ofsted parework straight away and at least get all that going. Some of the girls here that have come in from Scotland and wales have done that, makes things quicker.

I have my Introduction to childminding course next week.
Should be interesting. Hopefully then it won't take too long before I'm up and running. The boredom is setting in.

Snap Shosha, Are we in for a nice day? I didn't get the hail storm yesterday, but DH was working over your way and he got wet.
A trip to the park this morning if all stays nice once I've done the school and preschool runs.

Morning. Im positive at the moment. I'm ready for the day, done all the fly things already! Its Wednesday, so no kids and I really must get my act together. Finish painting for a start - it really is getting very boring now! Might have to change a couple of nappies today, but thats it. Neighbour fractured his elbow yesterday and can do everything else, but not nappies!

Same here we where doing the school run, although we had just stopped when a huge clap of thunder, got my 4 year old out of her car seat and onto my lap in double quick time, she then very quietly said, from somewhere in my shoulder, 'sorry I undid my seat belt' aaaahhhhhh

Nice hear as well, expect it won't last alas.
The children liked watching the hail bounce off my car yesterday
