Air France strike has been called off so hopefully i will get home on Saturday. Had to watch coronation street on you tube while I was here. I only worled that i could watch it like that yesterday. There is a TV with ITV here but as I decided to get my nephews a playstation 4 as a gift i never got to see anything on it!
I'm glad the strike's been called off and hope your journey home is stress free. :)Quote:

The others did not want to come as they are revising.
I have finally booked to go to the coronation street tour. I wish I had gone to it when I was at central manchester college! Was'nt such a big fan then. But i suppose its got more to see now. Going to some theatre arts thing at the contact theatre the day before so finally got my chance to go. Every time i go to Manchester I get busy with family. This time I am not going to let that happen.
I am glad you are doing things for yourself, family is important and nice but we all need a little 'Me' time occasionally. I did the Neighbours tour when I was in Melbourne recently which was pleasant enough and met Kym Valentine who is very nice :D
Hope you enjoy yourself! Let us know how it goes, won't you? :)Quote:

What a shame the Neighbours tour was dull but I'm really glad you enjoyed Australia so much! :)Quote:

6 hour flight to Dubai from Heathrow, 2 hours stop-over, then 12 hours to Melbourne.

Not so lucky on the way home but I could not afford Business Class :( However, I would fly over again today if given the opportunity ....:D
Had a good bank holiday weekend doing all the jobs i have been putting off for ages. Hard to keep up with things when your working full time. I am making my house cat friendly even though its a while before i get a cat.
Dazzle i have to wait a year but i have put myself on a waiting list for a siberian cat. My sister is allergic to cats thats why i have to get a siberian one. The more i looked into it it was a better option than my sister taking tablets as that probably won't suit her either. She reacts to everything!
If she was'nt allergic i would have gone straight to the celia hammond cat rescue. I might volunteer in the meantime.

My daughter finally got a teaching job today at the same school she went to as a child. She is so happy.

Hey Peeps
Currently sitting in Norway (a small place up in the North which is full of mountains) and it got dark at 11.30pm ish and sun was up again at 2am. It is very hard to get use to but a very beautiful country...
Spending long weekend with my niece.

Can dogs suffer from insomnia?? One of mine woke me up before 4am and would not settle ... I feel like a zombie :(
Must be the week for it, our dog has been awake really early 3 times this week and wouldn't settle.
Basically yes.Quote:

If sleep too.much in day / sleep.less well at night
Suffer ageing probems eg hip/ bladder . If their
sight & hearing deteriorate the dark at night
can be frightening.
They can also become diabetic and like humans-
if have pain dont sleeo well.
If it continues and you cant see a likely answer
perhaps consult vet.. If cause established can
be treated or various natural remedies& canine
meds available .
With pets like babies and infants - its worrying
because they cant tell you what is wrong
as older children & adults can!
Hope you can resolve problem soon!
