Iam pretty lucky in that my carer does the school run for me.Not something I miss when it's cold and I feel like crap in the morning.I actually don't feel too bad today,going to get hair colour done then go into town I think :)

Very good Gins!

There are so many talented people on site, we should put a book together for charity.
