Hi peeps,

I thought I would start this thread for everyone to come to for a chat and a catch up. I know we all have our own journals and threads but I thought it would be nice to have a single go to thread to come for a blether

So...... who's gonna join me??

I will!
I'm mega busy at work at the minute, so I've not had chance to update anything or check in with you guys

Been on track though, so in pleased with that
How are you?

Yeah, I'm doing fine thanks (if I ignore the head cold ... bleugh). Thanks Sarah ... at least I won't be sitting here talking to myself

Talking of work... better get my butt into gear I suppose

Yeah I'm procrastinating myself... Due back in after lunch, but there's absolutely no one in! It's so boring lol
Plus side, in off until 17th Aug after today

I'm here. Only working Sunday this week and then I've got 2 weeks off. We're off to Dorset on the 8th August. Praying the weather stays fine. Not bothered about heat just don't want wet.

Sarah Lucky you. You doing anything nice?

Ali That sounds lovely. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you if you keep your fingers crossed for me. As you say - dry would do.
OH and I are on holiday for a week on the 8th too. We're not planning on going away anywhere just day trips. I was thinking I might try to book us an overnight somewhere nice - if we can find a cat sitter, that is.

I'm here too Good idea JacquiE!

Lucky all of you going off on hols! I have a week off mid-September but nothing booked. OH has just started a new job which pays double what he was on before so he's feeling a lot more excited about the week off now and talking about actually booking a holiday, which he wasn't too fussed about before. We haven't been on an abroad holiday together in 3 years of being together! So we're determined to go somewhere... We're thinking of somewhere like Rome! A bit of sightseeing and culture

Ooo a nice nattery room! Lots of lovely hols coming up! We're off on Tuesday to Australia which I'm just having a chance to get excited about. Changing the insurance because of my visit to hospital a couple of weeks ago was a pain and the building work on our house is just coming to the exciting bit but I'm looking forward to the pampering. Luckily the builder is staying at the house so there should be a huge leap forward when we return.

hi all!

love this idea of somewhere to chat.

We bought a fold down caravan a few months ago and have had several 'few days' away, luckily we are retired so we can do that. For our holiday though we are hoping to take it and the dogs to France in September/ October but nowt booked yet. Lots and lots to talk about once I get started but won't bore you all silly with it

I love Dorset, my brother , his wife and family live in Dorchester so have been there a bit. Enjoy your stay.
