LOL. Mine is at home and driving me mad too. Am now psyching myself up to tackle the mountain of paperwork.

Only slept 3 hours last night which doesn't help.

I would insure as much as I could. Guaranteed you won't have to claim if you do. If you don't insure you'll worry for 8 weeks.

all of it! just incase the bloody ship sinks! it has happened before and no doubt it will happen again.


another reason is someone had their stuff back to them but it had all been destroyed by water and what not, because of the holes in the container and it was the top one so they had to pay for cleaning as well!

this is one of those thing that you insure to the hilt, just incase. it's a one-off thing but it is better to be safe then sorry.

i cant be bothered to find the thread but it was only a month or so ago.

Not in any particular order I'm stressing about;
Work - someone else has made a mess which I'm trying to sort out before it costs me a fortune.
Visa - Not sure whether to book meds / PCCs or not.
DD - Hurt leg see above.
Selling house as per bloomin usual.

I can't sleep until I have a solution to a problem. Drives me mad.

On second thoughts, you shouldn't read the thread above if you're worried about your little one starting school.................. When are you planning to move out to Oz? Can you delay starting until then if he isn't ready? Some ed authorities are flexible. Will it be nursery or reception? Nursery isn't compulsory.

Hi Daunted,

reception. i just cant understand why they start some in sept and some in jan, it's daft! they all end up starting the next year at the same time anyway! no chance of delaying it and we wont be going 'till at least this time next year! too much to do in the house.

that and the fact they are ALL snobby little gits(the parents - although the kids are not that far behind!) at the kids school and not an ounce of common sense between them.

daniel is erm...very strong minded, very energetic and hates sitting still, writing and reading! i'm gonna have a great time with the teacher this year arn't i?!
