No. My appetite has completely deserted me tbqath. Even had to throw my tea away. My stomach is in turmoil.
Single Malt in large quantities is called for.

Mr G - have a drink and a bit of cake  cloud9:

I'd imagine mini moose would have panicked like hell when she thought she had lost her money so she will be extra careful from now on.
Whatever problems may emerge, and hopefully that will be it now , you are not able to do much about it except worry yourself into a frenzy and that will not do.

I know, I know. Sound advice, but I am a bit of a worrier behind this gruff facade (is it?) that I appear to have sometimes.
Meanwhile, Mrs Growler is currently sitting in front of the fire, chortling away at some random shite on the telly. ::)

I always feel that every trip needs one calamitous moment. In fact I never really relax until it has happened. Mini Moose has had her moment and now the rest of the trip will be smooth sailing. Stiff drink matey. Maybe more than one.  ;)

Good job she had her phone ey?

On second thoughts? rubschin:
She's now used all the £20 credit that we only put on it yesterday, sobbing on her own in the boat bogs to Mrs Growler for 10 minutes.
I didn't actually know what was going on or who was on the phone, as I'd literally only been in for 5 minutes and was just sitting down in front of the fire for my tea, otherwise I'd have told Mrs G to ring HER back, dozy bloody moose. Banghead

Even calling her will require her to have credit on her phone.  eeek: As you will only pay the cost for the British part of the phone call and her mob will carry charges for all the foreign, regardless of if she is receiving or calling/texting. She will be charged for every phone call she makes, receives and for every text she sends and receives.

Didn't know that.  noooo:

Unless she tops her phone up then, I can look forward to a bit of peace at last....unless we get a call from one of the teachers or her friends of course.
I'll be having nightmares tonight.........................

"Can you arrange to meet Miss Moosey at Manchester airport at 3:30 am on Tuesday please, and we'll send you the bill for £800"


We have actually been warned that that will happen if any child is found to have seriously misbehaved, ie drugs, violence, and sneeking into others bedrooms.

Mini Moose won't do that. She is a good kid with her head screwed on right. She wouldn't even attempt to screw up an opportunity such as this.

It will all be ok.  happy100

I know that really. She is actually a very good kid....out of the house. I've just been getting a bit paranoid today.
Not one of the most relaxing days I've ever had, but seeing Snoops with a CAKE  cloud9: for me has certainly helped ease my troubled mind.

I can see this is going to be a traumatic week to rival the traumatic week when they killed that Hindu Bull or whatever it was

So you run home to Mum just as Mini Moose flees the country leaving Growler all forlorn and dependent on CAKE to get him through the week. Are you trying to make him feel werse?

Never fear - she has a computer in the spare bedroom where I shall be staying  cloud9:

You can guarantee I will be on that rather than watching antiques road show or CSi bollocks which are her favourite shows and she has taped masses of the buggers  evil:

So I will not desert Growler in his week of need  whistle:
