Another happy thought is my eldest let it slip that I'm going to love what hubby has bought me for our 30th wedding anniversary on the 4th of March.

Is it a Slow Cooker, or a new Dyson? ;)

I do need a new slow cooker tbh and as for the Dyson I much prefer the Shark lift away lol as it's lighter :D

Back from a few days in Amsterdam, to try and forget a significant birthday ! Lovely place and people, why are they all so happy and contented, very irritating !

Yes, did want to go and look (out of academic interest !), but Mrs K wouldn't let me....

Main risk in Amsterdam is from bikes, more of them than people, so you needs your wits about you as a pedestrian. If they don't get you a tram might !

Going to visit my niece and hopefully get a wee hold of the baby.

Hopefully she will have left the washing for me to put out for her, I think she is a bit tearful today as it's her hubby's 1st day back at work since the arrival of our newest family member.

Just a heads up to pie lovers: Sainsbury's are doing Pukka pies for a quid a pop for the next couple of weeks. Can be frozen and cooked direct from the freezer.

Amsterdam i did not like one bit, too many Bikes and tram coming out of the blue. To crown it there was a dustbin strike and the place was full of litter, I could not get home quick enough.

I won the inner fight. For now. But it's a struggle I am getting tired of. Doctors no help. Community mental health team no help.

See what local charities can do and if none of them can help as a last resort you could always try Mind

Try googling "mindfullness" or look on the NHS site (see below).

Ten years since I joined CF after the owner of Cablehell went doolally and directed it's members here.

I hope I've made some useful contributions. :D

Another anniversary: Our house is 100 years old this month, still pretty sound so all praise to the original builder: Alfred Clarke.
