Laksa, agree about the cost of glasses. But this time I went to vision express where you can get 2 pairs for £99 (I desparately needed sunglasses as well). In the end it was just over £200 though, because the vanity in me wanted the thinner lens which cost an extra £80 and I thought I'd better get their insurance at £25. Normally I don't bother about store's own insurances, but this one also gives you 10% off any purchases for 3 years, so will cover the cost of next glasses I suppose. The range in the offer wasn't massive, but there were some designer names there (mine are ted baker) and out of all the sunglasses there was only one that looked 'funky' which was what I was after, so I got that one. I think I got a bargain, 2 decent pairs for £200, when my last pair cost over £350 for just one.
I'm glad the 'heatwave' has gone, feel much more comfortable now. I know what you all mean about starjumps, I get most movement in my pelvis and on my left side, interestingly hardly anything on my right side.
I only ever tried Bachs rescue remedy once before, just before going into a job interview. I didn't get the job. When I came out of the interview, dh picked me up, and the first thing he said was "phwaor, your breath stinks of wine, have you been drinking?" Apparantly it was very strong, but all I'd had was the rescue remedy, the base of which (or was) grape juice. No wonder I didn't get the job, they probably thought I'd been drinking heavily at 10am.
Mrs M, when you said they're digging 40m down the road, I thought you meant 40m along the road, not into the earth. Blimey that's a big hole. If they continue to disturb you, take a big spade out there, wallop them into the hole and fill it in. Mind you if its a 40m hole you might need us to come round and help you.
