actually not a bad idea saf. could take the backs off and use as little stools. Especially if i paint them white. Nice little cushion toper and they would look lovely. will looks at the joints and see if it is possible as that could get done tomo. need to so serious wood treating in garden tomo if it is nice.

DEM - that is a fine specimen. It is lovely. What a pain about the glasses.

Bitter - are you ok? I need you to be ok because I wanted to ask you where on earth I would bleedin' well find the vileda mop end on the Tesco website (I hate the new lay out and cannot find things with ease like I used to).

When I called in the village shop earlier on, there was a photographer about to take a pic of the lotto section. I had heard on the news that someone in our area had won the £3m plus lotto from last night, so I asked the horrible lovely lady behind the counter if it was our shop that did the winning ticket, you would have thought she would have been whooping with joy - but she did not even crack a smile when she confirmed it was our shop. Anyhow, have just been watching the news and lo and behold there is one of DS1's teachers drinking champagne with her husband and holding up the large cheque.

DEM - that is cool, you are very good at actually doing stuff, i however am very good at procrastinating

Antique is a mahogany(sp?) victorian bookcase. The bottom is a cupboard but the top is a glass fronted bookcase. It is very tall and actually comes about 2/3 of the way up our wall (v tall ceilings)

Dinner ready, must go

Bella - how cool. does DS1 know yet? has teacher been in and bought them all pressies?

Vinny - i wouldn't pass a credit check thanks to xp. have to put up with rubbishy phones on P&G

bellavita · 16/06/2010 19:19

DS1 said there was a rumour going around the school today but he wasn't sure who it was. It was actually him that shouted out that the teacher was on the tv.

Hello, all.

Sorry my chinese salad turned up, didn't mean to post and run.

Just feel like shit - spent an hour and a half trying to get DS to finish his thankyou letters.

He is perfectly bloody capable of writing legibly, even if it is wobbly but when he cba it just ends up like scribble.

So I told him they had to be done over, ended up having a proper argument with him.

Which made me feel worse because I have not only been shit shouty Mummy but I have had my reasons for being that way knocked down by a 5 year old.

The boy has just turned 5 and not only did I lose an argument to him, I had to bloody concede his point.

So I made his dinner into a clowns face to make me him feel better and he then made be feel like an uber-shit by saying "Don't worry Mummy, we all have bad days".

Maybe he is too young to do thankyous? I forget he is still a little boy, expect too much of him as he is my eldest I think.

I must be due on, either that or I'm going bloody mad.

VinegarTits · 16/06/2010 19:26

yes it will be a new number, i want to get rid of my old number as i am bloody sick of getting cold calls on it

oh and did i mention its a iphone

bellavita · 16/06/2010 19:34

You bugger Vinny, no you didn't! DH ordered the new i-phone last night, then TESCO credit card (as we had already bought a phone for DS1 in Manchester on Sunday) thought eye eye, has someone stolen the card, so they said he had to go through a further check and ring them up... so he had to start all over again and by this time he had not realised that the delivery date had moved from the 24th June to the 2nd July, he is well pissed off.

vinny

Bitter - He probably is old enough to write them if he is capable but no point forcing him to do them if he doesn't want to as they will just get ruined.

love his reply to you. he sounds lovely

bellavita · 16/06/2010 19:37

Aww Bitter, don't you just want to strangle love them

VinegarTits · 16/06/2010 19:39

How lovely about the teacher winning the lottery, do you think she will give up her job? i would in a shot

its only a basic iphone, i cant afford the new one, i might not get it yet

my bloody microwave keeps shortcircuting the whole house every time i use it ds1 says i need a new one its only about 2 yrs old and a really good one too

bellavita · 16/06/2010 19:43

She said it wasn't going to change their lives Vinny (yeah right...)

An i-phone is an i-phone, basic or not! You must txt me your new number when it arrives, so I can stalk txt you now and again

I hate it when things break down.

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 16/06/2010 19:45

Vinny - would it be worth getting it fixed?
I am so tempted to get an iphone, but can't really justify the expense.

Wrt DS - He just knows exactly which buttons to press.

He's a nightmare but I have to admire his spirit.

DidEinsteinsMum · 16/06/2010 19:46

might not be the microwave if it hass always been doing that it might be a main house fuse that is too low. they upgraded the fuse requirements to cope with modern demands but not a lot of the older houses (more then 5 yrs) have the correct fusage now. If it has just started shortcircuiting then yes afraid you will need a new one.

ds has been a bugger about having his hair cut. am going to have to pay someone to do it. He is in proper toad mood this evening. i am going to quietly eat more crumble and ignore him for a bit. whilst the meds kick in. although as i hadnt realised it is so late it will be a late bedtime. are needed.

DidEinsteinsMum · 16/06/2010 19:48

bitter they do dont they. I admit that wrt thankyous i right the main and ds has to sign them. In some eg great grandma, favourite aunties he might write their name but he has a very large family and i feel that it is unfair to expect him to write all of it in all. so the compromise is just his name. And i spread it over 2 weeks with bribery.

bellavita · 16/06/2010 19:48

Bitter, I love my I-Phone, wouldn't be without it now.

Woohoo on the i-phone Vinny

DEM, that table looks fabulous- I love it!

Have cheered up a bit. Am just tired now. Managed a jolly good Thai curry, with a veggie version for dd1, so that was something useful.

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 16/06/2010 19:52

DEM - I realise I was being optimistic in wanting them done all in one evening.

There were only 4 or 5, typical message 'dear x and y, thankyou for my lego love Jack'.

I stupidly thought that by getting him some coloured paper and stickers, he may think it fun.

Instead he saw straight through my plan to the handwriting exercise it actually was.

bellavita · 16/06/2010 19:53

That's the spirit Portia. I don't like to see you sad.
