Muddles I hope you got to talk to someone tonight and that they are sorting out  your toilet for you !  good news about the court case do you have to go or does someone represent you I can't remember when my friend had to take someone to court whether she had to attend or not.
 

Good morning, Annie I hope your cold goes very quicklly.


We are going to my sons later this morning , his eldest son is three today so they have about 20 close family members going for a chilli and birthday cake party, it is lovely catching up with my daughter in laws family we have all become good friends  over the years.

The weather does not look very good it is not raining yet but I think it will be soon.

Muddles I hope your toilet has been fixed !  it really is the one thing you cannot manage without!!

Hope everyone has a good weekend.
 

Evening all. Twisted my knee today, all I did was turn around to get the milk out of the fridge, so been hobbling about all day trying to do chores and feeling like hop along Cassidy. lol 

The plumber idd come out at ten last night, it wasn't the gasket it was the cistern leaking, there's 2 bolts hold it down onto the toilet itself and one was leaking but it took him ages to find it. He's sealed it now so no more leaks for now and put some stuff down the pan to clear any more blockage that there might be further along the pipe. 

Sanctuary told me if the toilet isn't as bad as I've told them it was then they will charge me £200 charge back and the call out fee for the plumber. The plumber told me if he hadn't repaired it last night it would have been a bigger problem and flooded the bathroom so if Sanctuary decide to send me a bill they can whistle for it and will have to take me to court because I won't pay, I think the court would be on my side and if not, they cant get blood out of a stone. 

I've gone through all my folders to check I have everything in order for Court on Monday, I'm a bit stressed about it so will be glad when it's all over. Starry yes I have to attend and I don't have anyone representing me, Solicitors aren't interested as there's no money in it for them. I've had to do it all myself. 

It's been a damp and showery day today and I've felt freezing cold, for some reason. Put the heating on all day and was still cold. Hope I've not caught anything from the plumber. I had 40 winks this afternoon on the sofa, which is something I never do, but I just feel worn out lately with all the stress. Plus I thought it might help the knee get better. I don't want that playing up Monday as I have to drive to St Austell to collect Chloe, then to court then back to St Austell and then home again so will have clocked up about 60 miles or more by the end of the day.

Good morning we have non stop rain now for about 24 hrs so the floods are back.

Muddles good luck tomorrow I hope the outcome is what you want. When I was at college I did Law for a couple of years , I hated it except when we were allowed in the court rooms and watched various things from shoplifting to a murder trial , needless to say I left the course and got married instead much to my parents dismay.

We had a really lovely day yesterday at my sons for my grandsons 3rd birthday, there were 23 of us my DIL's family and ours,  we all get on really well and the children all play so nicely. Tom (my son) cooked a huge chilli which was very nice .  I am very lucky having such a large family that all get on , my mother is 95 in a couple of weeks and she loved every minute makes me laugh her great grandchildren call her  G'MA  which she loves . 

Thanks Starry and Diane I'll post on here tomorrow evening to let you know how things go. 

The family birthday party sounded wonderful Starry, I sometimes wish I had relatives alive it's a bit grim being the only one. But there's lots in a similar boat to me so mustn't complain. It must be lovely to see the grand and gt grand kids growing up. How wonderful for your mother. 

Diane it was quite nice today, not as cold as it has been and dry thank goodness, I thought Peter would be round to cut the lawn which is now over 12" high but no such luck. So I went round to ask when he's likely to do it and he's coming this week but the weather's going to be wet all week, so I can't see him doing it.  Poor little Dora is getting a sore tummy and under carriage as the grass is so long, when it's wet she gets chapped skin bless her. So I have to rub her down with dry warm towel as soon as she comes in. Which she loves!

Sorted out what I'm wearing to court and washed my hair and gone thru the folder again to double check I have everything. So will try and relax for the rest of the evening now. 

Enjoy the rest of the day everyone! xxx
