I don't know your personal life tarantula, but kudos to you for sticking in there. "In sickness and in health" really comes into it's own at times like that.

I have always been very independent in nature, and until a couple of years ago, had never had a days illness in my life. When I came home from hospital HWMO was everything I could have wished for. He waited on me hand and foot. But... I found myself thanking him for every single little thing he did for me, (not used to being waited on) and in the end he really got on my nerves doing every little thing for me. What an ungrateful cow I was when I think back how irritable and bolshy I was with him. Even if he was just plumping up my pillows or constantly asking me if I wanted another cup of tea. I just wanted him to butt out and leave me to wallow in peace. Of course, now, I could hug him forever for being so loving when I was so ungrateful and unappreciative. Strange creatures aren't we?

Thanks caracuture, We are both really looking forward to travelling around. It's going to feel a bit strange at first. For most of our lives we planned everything around the weekends Now suddenly, it feels very strange that we don't have to worry what day of the week it is when making plans. Even better, it's the strangest feeling in the world knowing that I can go online and just spend what I want on what I want for the future camper van. I've never been in the position where I didn't first shop around for the cheapest price of the product. (I'm sure this is inbuilt into us!). I must admit, it[s a lovely, never known before feeling.

C'mon Art...I've never heard you nor anyone say that about you. ....and I don't mean weight before you kill me


I've got a real bad feeling about this

Tipin, No, l’m not fat nor, am l thin, l am just right! Only one drawback and that is, I’m only 5ft 2!

My thinking is, if l can get in SG’s suitcase, l can have free holidays and my children won’t miss out on their inheritance!!
