Ha ha!!! That's so true. That's been me most of the summer. Now that cold weather is on the way, it's time to get back to work. It's lame that I tend to be the most fit in SNOW PANTS!

Sorry. No help. I haven't been on the forum enough. But I wouldn't worry. Lyn is such an adventurer. I'm sure she's off having a good time.

Care if I whine a bit? I figure it's a good thing to do in the cold and dark...
So...I'm a bit stressed today. I'll admit life is pretty stressful these days period, but I'm trying really hard to make the most of it and give the kids some fun last few days of summer. We've been staying at my parents' house a state away. I took the kids swimming today. I thought it would be safer to keep my purse tucked under the carseat and the doors locked rather than on the towel while I'm away in the water. Well, came back to the van to find mine and three other cars with bashed in windows. My purse is gone. I must not have tucked the handle in well enough or something. I lost the camera (heartbroken about the photos I lost!), cell phone, cards, checkbook, the rest of the my trip money, IDs, everything. It was stupid to have them with me in my purse, but I've been so busy I didn't think to empty out my purse from various summer excursions as I'm out of town and basically lugging my belongings everywhere I go. I have a few little 'ouchies' on my hand from tiny shards of broken glass when I was cleaning off the seats so we could sit down. -An interesting side effect of robbery that I would not have thought of. Seriously wishing I could go back in time!!!!!!!!!!! Where's the tardis when you need it!!?!?!?!?!?

Oh no! That's awful
Sometimes these people are watching as you park up to see if you do put a bag under a seat or in the boot (= US trunk). You may not have left anything visible at all.
Good morning all. We're up bright and early again (had to miss Mo's 5000m, but at least he won) to head for Calais where we'll have lunch and then head home (Eurotunnel)
Own bed tonight! Yay!

safe travels mum
Good afternoon Adam, Wifey and Tidgy.One can never have enough cheese, Gillian.
Hi Adam.
No, sorry. I was about to ask the same question. Haven't seen her around recently.
Very SORRY to have just learned what happened.
Wish I could help!Hope that none of you was hurt from the broken glass.
Got to Calais with no problems- it's not far.
Had some delicious oysters and now awaiting my moules frites (mussels and chips) in a restaurant in the old port
Then we have to go home

I love all these cultural differences.
How are you doing, Chrissy ?
I still think she's eloped with her nephew's dentist.
Or it's the less exciting computer problems.
Does she teach secondary? It was A Level results last Thursday and GCSE results next Thursday.
EDIT
Back in the UK and on the M20. Home in half an hour
Hi! Let's hope all is well and that @Lyn W is having a good time.
How are you, Adam, and how's Wifey and what about Tidgy?
Here, it's extremely HOT, and CDD (Civil Defence Dept.) has cautioned yet again: "Do not get exposed for too long to the sun."
Personally I have not moved from home till this minute and it's 5.25pm.
Yes she is a teacher. But cannot tell you more - sorry.Does she teach secondary? It was A Level results last Thursday and GCSE results next Thursday.

The TARDIS is not about til Christmas Day, unfortunately.
I'm so sorry, Chrissy, how awful.
Feel free to express yourself here, hope it helps a little. The Cold Dark Room is a support group among other things.
At least it's near the end of the holidays.
What's done is done (even with the TARDIS, altering history is forbidden), no point crying over spilt milk and all that. I'm sure you'll deal with it.
I don't suppose the police are likely to catch the culprit so (as I'm sure you're doing) it's just a case of cancelling cards, checkbook and the phone etc.
Terrible news.
Sending sympathy your way and some very nasty and unpleasant vibes in the direction of the perpetrators.
