That one goes with have you seen my other black/white/multicoloured/sock?

Haha!! well - I've just dumped about 25 hoodies in the hall belonging to Joey -- they get abandoned all over the house and I've no idea whether they are for the wash or not --- he just keeps walking past them with a puzzled glance

God Molls- maybe tell him?
or Joey can look after the shop:H sell a few hoodies :H
Yes I can see HIS GIRLS having use for spanners & screwdrivers.
Well maybe the screwdriver to get the cork out in an emergency situation :H

Mmmmmmm difficult one. I just about had to beat Mr JC round the head with a calendar to make a defo booking for a week off in June and we're only going to the caravan.
Mebbees see if you can get one where you could change the dates but then again you've got to get the time off.

He prolly thought they had some magic use in make-up usage.

I'm wondering if trainers and hoodies breed. Never see the son and heir actually buy them but the house is full of them.

Well I'm in for a sober December Molly and committed totally to that. got a bit derailed last night... the long term long distance bf who I have guided over the last 2 yrs through a hideous booze problem.. encouraged him to leave the country he was in as it was destroying him.. now he's in Saudi, so he's sober... gave me the flick last night and told me that basically he no longer needs my help and things have changed and he is fine.. I got a bit upset and angry and he told me to have a drink or a smoke...(knowing I also have a booze probelem WTF.??).. I just can't stand men right now hehe...so last night not good but good today xx

Yeah - maybe I should - nothing worse than a 'BAD' surprise -- ur right --- I will run it past him..... mmmm he's a bit of a 'no' man - thought if I presented a 'fait accompli' he'd sort of HAVE to organise it... mmm yeah - think you may be right!!!
Joey already offered to do the shop --- then realised it was the bank holiday weekend and also the weekend after his own birthday.... his enthusiasm waned somewhat:H
I loved my Dad dearly -- but (and actually, I think I may have married his clone) when anything went wrong - someone had to be found to take the blame!!!!
Are you going over to your mammy?

Ah fuck Molls - surprise him in front of the kids he'll have to go - he has 5 months to get ready !
No Mammy today Molls. Did all day stint yesterday - anyhoo she's doing a novena for all of us sinners :H
