Tell me about it.
Im considering, doing an all nighter (revising all night) <<< not a good idea though, is it?

We were always advised to take a boiled sweet into the exam room. Sugar to the brain and all that. And exam nerves are good. Blood's pumping around the body like an express train, getting the best out of you.

Hi everyone My sister's at the hospital today so I'm catching up on housework and making lunch. My mam's getting moved to Freeman hospital(heart hospital) for tests on Monday. I saw her yesterday and we had such a laugh,she's very nosey and tells me all the gossip in the ward. My dad was Scottish Lilypop and yes Peggy I'm getting plenty rest,the wine helps. Hope you found a nice outfit,let me know what it's like.
Well done to Portsmouth yesterday. Enjoy the rest of your day,weather nice here .

Afternoon everyone
Glad to hear your mam's improving Lindy. The Freeman Hospital is the best heart hospital in the country bar none (in my opinion). Hope you're not too stressed today ussie!
Hope you all enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
Oh, by the way Lindy I got a cream shift dress and short cream jacket. I've lost 6 pounds with Paul but still look like a barrel or lard, such is life!

barrel or lard = barrel of lard

That sounds lovely Peggy and I bet you look amazing. 6 1bs is brilliant for eating and drinking what you like isn't it!! I look at it as nearly half a stone. Well done

Thanks Lindy. I've still quite a way to go but it's a good kick start. Got another wedding in July.

Hi Peggy, are you "mystic Peg" the one who started this thread, you have the same avatar ?

I hadn't noticed that russellfan - but no, I'm not!!

Hi russellfan are you having a nice weekend?

Hi Posh Paws, yes thanks, my partner and three cats are all asleep so i'm having a great time, what you been up to ?

Oh I've been walking the dog, doing a bit of reading and still decorating (but I feel I'm going on a bit about that). My son's been at his Dad's so I've been able to have a bit of 'me' time too.

I`ve read recently that some colleges are giving students bananas to keep them alert for the exams later in the day.Might be worth a try, DOND? Good luck .

Sounds lovely, have you got the rest of the evening to yourself, what's your dogs name ?

No my son's just walked in but he's straight on to his laptop. My dog's name is Daisy, she's a little black and white Jack Russell. What are your cats called?

Jake was the first, it was chosen for 2 reasons, 1 it has first initials of both me and my partner, and one of my favourite songs, (no not Jake the peg) "my brother Jake". Then Kiwi after my fave fruit, then Marley, as he looked like Bob,(long curley hair all matted)They were all rescue cats that i took in.

I have great respect for people that take in rescue animals, it can't be easy.

Good Morning Everyone.. Its been nice catching up with all of your posts, haven't been feeling too well recently so not been on much.
Am taking my big girly up to London at the weekend as she has an audition for the x-factor!! Being realistic we know only a very small percentage get through the first round but she was adamant she wanted to try - have had to cancel all my Birthday plans for the weekend but it will be nice to have a couple of days just the 2 of us.

Hope you are all well and have a great day.

Good Morning All, was lovely and sunny earlier but dull now and quite chilly.
Lindy, hope Mam continues to improve and you are coping ok.
Andrea, sorry you have not been so good, hope things are better and good luck to your daughter with the X Factor audition.
Linz, little Charlie seems to be coming on well,
you deserve a nice holiday, it will soon be here.
Hi to all pals on forum, have a good day.Bye for now.
