Oh Jeez, I can smell it from here, Jo, and it's turning my stomach!. Who was the first person to get a whiff and think: "Baby sick and rancid feet - I must try some of that?"

Had problems with the tv, checked everything and it's the meo box :roll: Our Portuguese tv provider

Rang and eventually managed to speak to some-one, then was on hold, for over an hour :cute: :cute:

I've also tried to contact them on line and they might, just might ring me back.

But I probably have a black mark against me, as I made an official complaint a year or so ago :lol: But as we pay over 50€ a month, I expect some sort of answer and soon.

I'll ring again tomorrow, when the phone is charged up.

Oh, and we have to pay for the call too :evil: :evil: :cute:

And the phone is meo too :roll: :roll: :twisted:

This is like living with The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
So far John’s eaten a large bowl of cornflakes, a large bowl of porridge, a Kit Kat and at 11.30 he was asking when lunch will be as he’s hungry.

Took out of the freezer what I thought was a lump of pork loin. Yes, it's a lump of pork, but stewing stuff :roll: :cute: :lol:

So tomorrow, I'll be making a stew :lol: :lol:

We ended up finishing off last nights curry :shock: :roll:

I'm shocked Scarlett dad has just message me a photo of Scarlett first class school photo and it's £10.00
If told him not to buy me one
When you begin to buy for family like you
usually do
It is in a frame but not suited to his decore he said
Poor parents if they have children in different classes rant over

Saundra, they’re ever so sneaky too because they used to sometimes take more than one photo. There’d be the usual school photo pose and a more relaxed one, plus a class photo.
Then the school used a company where you had to order direct and get it delivered to home so there’d be a delivery charge too.

Do you remember, back in the day, when they used to photograph the whole school, out in the open, with a camera that slowly swivelled from left to right?

There was always at least one kid who was pulling a face, and another who had turned his back .... :mrgreen:
