Hey Nonperson. How’s it going?

It's going. Watching new Big Bang.

Did you do any arty stuff while away?

SKETCHBOOK :-D

how the **** was oban??

I did. I got plenty of sketching done and I’m going to turn them into charcoal drawings.

Hey Zombie. How are you? Oban was great thanks .

Hello everybody

Hey Dawn, how are you?

I am in a lot less pain now. Nearly back to normal.

Glad you are in less pain.

Yeah I am glad too. I fell asleep before and since then I have felt better.

That's good dawn.

Hey rainey :) charcoal is such a fluid and inretesting medium. I'd live to see some when you get them done!

Morning/afternoon guys

Heya. :)

Hey Aubergine
How are you?

Hey Beckie. How's it going?

Got a headache but hopefuly the neurofen will sort it!

How about you?

Oh I hope it goes soon. :) Got any plans for the day?


I'm OK. On a train! Just bought myself a ridiculously priced hot chocolate. :P

Thanks :)
Got to see CC and crisis, go to asda and I'm pretty sure i have some college thing due today :/

Is it a good hot chocolate?!

I hope it goes OK with CC and crisis. Be honest with them. <3 Getting anything nice from Asda? What's due for college? I submutted my first essay for uni on Wednesday. I'm not feeling very confident!


It's a lovely hot chocolate! :)

Thank you <3
Just the ususl stuff from asda! Milk, yogurt and pasta.
Its just a reflection on a discussion. 500 words so not a huge piece of work.

Im sure you'll do fine!
Well done for getting it submitted!

Good :)

Nice! Oh, you can do it. :) 500 words in a day is achieveable! :)


Thank you! I've read some things on the OU forums, like people panicking because they've missed the deadline and not asked for extensions etc, so I feel a bit better. I know I've got at least 6 marks out of 100 because I managed to input some data into an online table, and you get six marks just for adding to the table, whether your data is correct or not. :P I'd be happy with 6. ;)

Yep!
It will still take me bloody ages because I'll write a sentence and then reward myself with a 2 hour break :p

Haha! I'm pretty sure you'll get more than 6!

Haha you sound like me. :P With this one I was like - write a sentence, potter about a bit, do the washing up (if ever there was a way of getting me to wash up, it's by making write an assignment), make a cup of tea, write another sentence, watch some TV, hoover the floor, have a look on the forum, make another cup of tea et cetera. :P

Haha! Yep that sounds familiar! XD

Hi Aubergine and Beckie!

Good luck with the assignment and everything Beckie, I hope it goes well with your CC and all.

Aubergine I'm sure you'll be fine!

Haha!


Up to much? I am trying not to fall asleep or I'll end up in Aberdeen...

Hey Eska! How are you?

Thanks eska!

That wouldn't be good Aubergine!!

No, it wouldn't be good! I want to go north, but not THAT north. :P


I'm off to Newcastle in June to go to my friend's ordination (she's training to be a vicar)! Then off to Christian camp in July. So many thing to look forward to! (And get anxious about. :P)

Can you set an alarm for 10 minutes before you are due in your station Ducky?

I was just the same when I had assignments too!

I'm ok, having a relaxed day off.

Hey Sarah! How's it going? I've woken up a bit now. Was so tired a short while ago! Might set an alarm anyway, just in case I drop off...


I'm glad you're having a relaxing day off, Eska. :)

It's going ok, I'm having a fairly relaxing day too :)

Glad you have woken up a bit but maybe an alarm would be a good backup. I don't know what it is but trains always make me sleepy.

Do you have any plans for your day Eska?

Relaxing day sounds nice. :)


I have now set an alarm. Another hour and 40 minutesish before I change... Though the train manager guy has just said to me "you could make the train that goes 5 minutes after we arrive" and I think he was trying to be helpful, but it's just made me go "arghhhIcan'tand30minuteschangeovertimeisfineandar ghhhh". :wow: I think I'll tell assistance person at the other end that we'll stick to the original plan...

Relaxing day sounds good guys!!

Thats a long time aubergine!

Do whatever you feel comfortable with Ducky, I guess some people would be more stressed waiting in the station and others more stressed running for a train. Remember they are there to make this easier for you.

How are you getting on beckie?

Agree with sarah!

Meh. Just about to go to asda.
Fun times!

How are you?

Thanks Sarah. :) That's true. I would honestly rather wait an hour changing over than rush.


I am studying nutrition at the moment and it's making me rethink my Asda online shop. :P

I hope Asda is OK, Beckie!

Whenever I used to visit my friend in Warrington I would prefer to wait 30 mins than rush between trains. Especially if it meant that I could have a coffee. Especially as they change platforms all the time so I didn't know which one to get. Haven't been to Warrington for a while because my friend prefers to meet half way since her husband is a nightmare (he has dementia) if left alone too long.

Sounds similar to me, Dawn! Half way sounds good if your friend's husband struggles on his own. :) How are you?

I am struggling a little but otherwise I'm good.

It depends on what kind of day I'm having which person I am. Some times it's nice to have a bit of calm other times I just have to get on a train as quick as possible.

It's good you are able to meet halfway dawn.

Have fun in asda beckie!

Sorry you are struggling a little Dawn, anything we can do to help?

Blergh so much sky water today :/

Hugs for you all xx

I hope things feel easier soon, Dawn.


Hey Lillie. How's it going?

4 hours till I can curl up in a ball and give up.
Even veggie Colin the caterpillar didn't cheer me up!

How's the journey going?

Asda was fine thanks guys.
Didn't need much so was in and out in less than 10 minutes.
The heavens have opened! Luckily I got home in time to miss it.

How's everyone doing?

Even colin won't cheer you up lillie?!?

Oh no, Lillie. :( *sends something else to cheer you up, though I'm not sure what if even Colin has failed!* Have a hug. :)


I'm glad Asda was OK, Beckie. And that you got home before the rain!


The journey is OK. Though the closer to my next station I get the more anxious I'm feeling. Oh to be normal. :P

Hi everyone.

On train to doctors for blood test. So anxious today I feel sick.

Im sure you'll be fine Aubergine. You've done well so far!

Sorry you feel anxious emma.
Could you do something to treat yourself after your blood test?
