Cass, hang in there, MIL will be gone soon and you'll be queen of the castle with no more ogres to bother you LOL.

Arte - how about W with the reading eggs! I haven't looked at that as yet, E is pretty interested in the whole reading/writing thing but they've been doing a bit of jolly phonics stuff at the FDC lady's so if anything I'll steer in that direction. Wow at A piping up her own letter, you might discover she's absorbed all sorts thanks to W's endless quest for explanations LOL.

Cally, yeah, we had that letter too, I haven't done anything about it yet. Excellent trick with the clock!

Trill, good luck with your maths exam! You're near the light at the end of teh tunnel now. I got my mega-essay result back today, 70% = a credit I think. I experienced a mixture of relief, and horror that I could eviscerate myself out of sheer effort squeezing the bloody thing out to the darndest of my abilities and "only" score a credit. The lecturer used the word "satisfactory" quite a lot in her comments pmsl. I've obviously come down in the world since my straight distinction glory days LOL.

MP I'm still amazed there is such a thing as Masters of Wellbeing. It sounds awesome, fingers crossed that you're application is successful.

Ginger, we haven't heard from you much. All well down your way?

Well study visit went well, I'm writing the report now but it's short and it doesn't involve any referencing so it's like a clayton's assessment. I feel like i'm nearly on holidays even though I'm back at work. The project I elbowed my way into went live on the web last week, it was very gratifying seeing my crazy idea come to fruition. Missy E had her second kindy day today and she was full of happy chatter about it again so all good on the home front too. Now all I need is for the crosslotto fairy to visit LOL
