Life thank you so much, I am so grateful and excited (sad, I know... 
). I was sure they would be sold out everywhere! I will PM you. You are a

I've not managed to get on mn all day as it's been manic. It was DS's first day at school. He was really upset last night and took ages to go to sleep, and this morning we had a massive battle getting his uniform on but we did it with brute force and bribery and he went in for a short day and was fine, I think. It's hard as he's not able to tell me anything about his day but I can usually tell by his behaviour if he's been upset, so no news is good news I guess.
Plumber has fixed our leak I think (I have to keep an eye on it but okay so far). I still need to swill out the garage and clean it but that's a big relief. £295.
lonely them's expensive wheels 
but I know what you mean about not being able to unsee a worry. Gotta be done.
I hate horror films although oddly I've quite enjoyed the odd Stephen King book. Really can't abide clowns though.
Snuggly I bet your childcare costs are looking awful. But as one of my friends says, he thinks of it as a 'capital' cost /hit on savings, as it is finite, rather than an ongoing revenue cost.
I've only just finished dinner so can't go to bed yet but am so knackered. I have tonnes of stuff to do and never make any progress... I am actually considering paying a local au pair who is looking for extra work £10ph to come and hold DD for a few hours so I can get some jobs done. It really is that bad! 
. Turns out DD is not very frugal...
