A week on

Well, today the cough seems to be subsiding, this is a massive step forward and I'm starting to feel somewhat human again. I had a little walk to the shop for some bread (white sliced - filling my body full of crap, blah blah blah - because that's all there was and we're low on groceries). The shop is about a two minute walk away and it took it out of me a bit if I'm honest, so spent a few hours on the sofa this afternoon playing Super Mario Galaxy on the wii. What a beautiful game?! It's absolutely lovely, I'd read reviews but I never really believe them, but honestly it's lovely.

Anyway, back to the shop, they are very nice in there (as are most of the shop owners along the row) and she said "ooh nice coat" and I thought "yes it is". This is significant because it's a few years old now and cost a lot of money (it's Per Una). I was in two minds about buying it but it clearly looks good on so I obviously made the right decision! It's also been freezing today, trust me to go out for the first time in a few days and get crap weather! I like living in this area, it feels like a community which I think we were missing in the flat. We haven't really spoken to the neighbours (apart from when the Popster went missing) and there's no one in nextdoor, they're decorating before they move in. They had a matress delievered from John Lewis so they must be in the money!! I'm turning into my dad aren't I?!

Billy's meatloaf eating made both mine and His Lordship's evening, we had a good old giggle about it.

glad you are on the mend, I know what you have suffered as I am the queen of chest infections, they are not fun?
Parents will be relieved I am sure?
Billy has done a good job of lifting the spirits of people across the world, he is lovely bless him, he isn't what you would call street wise???
Get well soon.

Haven't got time a for wee. And I agree, you can't beat quality so that makes your coat purchase was a good one. MS taught me to buy quality. She "saves" us a lot of money on quality purchases.

I think Billy is brilliant, clearly not as stupid as he looks.

You should get a wii, they're good fun, ask my dad - he loves the sports game you get with it, particularly the boxing!
