nightowl and nellie To be truthful, I wasn't virtually squiffy either. As I was performng high jinx at Glastonbury, Mr soop would keep topping up my G&T...and I kept supping it...hic! 
nellie I lost one of my stilts and I wont begin to tell you the trouble when go into 
glass Are you sure you didn't use it as a broomstick? there was an awful lot of stuff flying around that night.
soop everything is a little hazy, so its a possibility
Glass you can tell me I wont pass it on the others ,so how did you manage with only one stilt,did you use it like a pogo stick
jeni who singed the bottom of a dog read a bit about it this morning,but my mind is really working over time and not in a good direction with this turn of events
All I can say is I hope that Gransnet is never subject to anything like an Ofsted Inspection! They would go away shaking their heads in confusion
Doesn't everyone?
Here's a lovely story.
A 7 month old baby screamed and mummy rushed in to find 2 year old son holding baby thermometer and fluid leaking from baby's ear. Assumption made that toddler had possibly inserted thermometer into baby's ear. Rushed to hospital for tests. Turned out that baby had a genetic condition that results in perforated ear drum and NOT anything to do with toddler and thermometer. BUT because of that assumption medical attention was immediate and life saving as medic discovered that baby had meningitis that wouldn't otherwise have been diagnosed. 
ga how fortunate for that baby. Thank goodness she was taken to the hospital
Goodness, ga. That's serendipity for you.
All that matters...family, friends, [real and virtual] a safe place called home, a soppy black cat, sun on the sea, mist over the mountains... and the fact that I shall be sharing chocs with Bags on Wednesday [but only if she's nice to me.]
Finished a very difficult report yesterday (thanks to Greatnan for the much needed push). Spending today with DS1 who is thankfully recovering from his latest depressive episode and starting to feel that life is worth living again, seeing DD later to go through some old photos (lovely), out for a meal with family on Sunday, and all next week off work, looking after DGS every day
Today my lovely OH and I have been together for 11 years! We can both remember that first "date" so well when we were both younger and fitter (nothing actually wrong with us nowadays, just creaking a bit!). We both had fractured pasts, he a widower and I a divorcee - 5 grown up children between us. But we found each other and as they say, the rest is history
Tonight going out for an anniversary meal and a glass or two 
Congrats moomin - Have a lovely evening together.
