I've got bellyache.
I've got a severe bout of inevitable disdain after my journey home from work (which was a most satisfactory day btw) after firstly a cyclist, whilst I was moving to the right and almost level with his rear wheel flung out his right arm and moved straight across me This was followed less than five minutes' later by the daft cow in a white Mini who pulled out in front of me on a roundabout resulting in an emergency (well not quite, but a bit sharpish) stop and an actually quite pleasing heavy blast of the horn That nearly cheered me up "Blast of the horn", ooh err missus...

Done 3/4 of the car, just got to finish the nose in the morning and then vacuum up the interior, Looking very shiny ready for the London Classic Car show....In the words of Scott, " I may be some time!"
Fourteen years of struggling to raise my kids as a single parent with no financial or moral support from their Father, last week my middle son was offered a place in the sixth form at a prestigious private school having been, for want of a better phrase, head hunted/watched by them since he was 11. Less than an hour ago, after working ten hours, doing housework and sorting out paperwork I found out the majority of the fees will be paid for him by the school after finding an unopened envelope in with their placement offer letter. I've been in tears since. No one is awake to share this with so I'm posting here.

Sorry.
This should not affect your preparation of the car.

Fantastic news and some top parenting and instilling the right attitude to education! Awesome Morning all.
That's a marvellous story Gretchen, congratulations. A good result for all your hard work.
I'm not having much of a morning so far, I keep losing things. I've tucked a letter away somewhere and can't find the bloody thing. There's about a dozen marbles that are unaccounted for too.
I have seen the dog around though so that's good news.
