Hope you all find me.

No Oggs today?

Evening
Was poorly this morning (too much whisky last night ) and this afternoon we've been admiring the new pony that dh bought this morning.
We need to think of a name as at present he is called Billy and it's a crap name.

Lyra, obviously.
I do envy you Oggs, having all these animals and an outdoorsy lifestyle.

My bil has a horse called Pete!

Lyra, don't be jealous, the Good Life's over-rated I'd much rather be a City Slicker schmoozing with the PM (well, maybe not THIS PM), than standing up to my knees in dung at 2 in the morning assiting with a caesarian on a cow!!! I think it was then I came to the conclusion I'm probably Margot not Barbara.

Oggs, there are only 2 names for horses. Dobbin and Satan. Which is your's?

Mmmm to continue on the theme, whilst I like my new hens, I'm not keen on the way my kitchen suddenly looks more like a farmyard.

Wellies on inside the house eh? I'd be right at home at your gaf Berrie

Lyra you may well envy my animals and outdoorsy lifestyle but I bet you don't have toilet envy, especialy on a cold day .
Pony as yet still unnamed. Dd is keen on Uncle Fester . I suggested Gonzo, which has been cruelly rejected .

My SIL had a horse as a girl called Whisky. Now that seems appropriate!

Another vote for whisky. Highly appropriate
Zeb, the grass is always greener, isn't it.

Lyra, you are soooo right.

I like Uncle Fester, but then I love the Adams Family Values

Where is everyone?

Here I am!

Hurrah!
what are you up to today?
I'm at work. Am busy printing off various bits of paper for our trip to Disney. There's still so much to do.

When are you going?

Saturday, crack of dawn.
I want to go the Sainsbury's to stock up on supplies to take with us but I've got no idea what to take. We're driving btw. I guess just the essentials - tea, coffee etc. Breakfast is included in our package. Stuff to make packed lunches with? We'll probably have dinner out although our cabin comes with a barbecue.

Not much.
Have just made a new dust bath for hens. There is a cake in the other. Bit depressed at the moment actually. Am thinking of going to the Doctor and swapping to citilopram but am a bit worried that it will take 6 weeks to work.
Am convinced it's hormonal but not sure what to do about it.

Are there not grocery shops there?

Was thinking cabin on the ferry then.

A cake in the other what
could you try evening primrose oil if it's hormonal?

Twould be a shame to be eating kingsmill and cheddar when you could be lunching on brie baguette!

Probably but they might be those little convenience stores where everything's double the normal price. Also I don't fancy dragging the children round a hypermarket when they're desperate to go to Disney.

Take it by the bucket load already. It really helps with the pmt but not the depression.

St John's Wort?

Mmmm maybe

Lyra, that's so exciting. Are the little darlings jumping up and down with excitement? I'd suggest stocking up on milk but that's not such a bright idea. But definitely pg tips!

Berrie, when I started on citalopram it only took a couple of days to kick in. Might be worth a try?
