Skegness Library have told me who was living in the house where my dad was born, before it was demolished. The last time it appeared on the electoral roll was 1981 - 82. It was then demolished and the site is now that of a business. Sad I know, but i had a feeling this was the case and so now I know I am happy. Fi x

I've had some trek posters up at work for ages now and yet for some reason it's only been today that I've had two separate occasions where someone has pointed to the poster and asked if that's me - one being the cleaner, and the other a guy from another company who's asked me to bring in a sponsorship form and he'll pass it round his mob. So hopefully some more dosh coming soon.

Maz...where do i start...not that i like to brag you understand...lol My eldest two managed to be nice to each other this morning caused my first smile.....(it's getting to be a rare event for them at the moment) then Adam thanking me for giving him such a lovely birthday yesterday...bless him Mal and i decided to have a night out at the cinema and we actually managed to get a babysitter sorted...very rare...so huge smile :-) Bosch telling me that they WILL send someone round to look at my new appliance that stopped working monday after 2 uses after all, made me think today was looking good...... then i got a text from an old friend that was very complimentary.....*blush* A chat with another friend that was worth it's weight in gold followed, i sat here grinning like the proverbial cat and then just to be really greedy i got a call telling me my interview yesterday went so well i got the job....biggest smile of all!!! So you see i am spoilt for choice today :-)) Yvette

Maz, I'm not unhappy as such, I just haven't had anything specific to make me smile. Been too busy doing staff appraisals etc Paul

Lynda I don't like that you are feeling worse today. Are you taking your pills? Have plenty of hot and cold drinks too and do NOWT - make sure you accept all the help you are offered. Paul that's a shame, perhaps someone can find some jokes and post them. Please!!! Maz. XX

My sons are feeling lots better after having some sort of bug/virus. Youngest isnt too bad (but begs sympathy lol). Eldest was in bed for 3 days (hes 16) and didnt even show an interest in his PC - definately poorly. Both on the mend now and back to school in a couple of days (big smile on my face) I love them really...... Vikki xx
