Red Thai chicken curry? Homemade or takeaway?

Payment being made this coming week in person and then words will be exchanged. Funnily enough it happened the same week that a Government advisory group complained about something similar. Kids being denied locker space and homework journals based on a payment that is voluntary.

Tell me more about that Thai Curry!:D

Shall await the update !
I remember a few years back , one of the secondary schools here refusing to give some of the students their books , as they hadn't bought the school tracksuit yet . When it was pointed out that they hadn't arrived in Colgans Sports yet , they said that was no excuse !!' You couldn't make it up

The curry is takeaway , from the chilled section in Tesco

Schools are starting to annoy me with their carry on. But that's not important right now.:D You have bought a carton that I have bought many times in Tescos and it aint bad at all. Small, but full of flavour. Decent for the price. They have a green version too. A tub with the curry and rice, Tesco brand? You'll love it!

Couchside, just after bidding a bittersweet "see you later" to my son. First time in ages I shed a tear after he left (that sounds like I'm normally rejoicing - I'm not)....but normally I knew when I'd be seeing him again. Now that's no longer the case. He's off doing his own thing, which I am delighted and so proud of him for, but it finally *hit* me that he's all grown up. 21 in a few weeks. And I'll be doing it all again in a few years. This parenting malarkey, as wonderful as it is, sometimes is a royal pain in the ass.

Bittersweet isn't it

Wait until one of them get married ...
It'll be like all rolled into one !

In my friends having a beer. She's off an hols 2moro & I'm taking up as mammy for 10 days or so.
So housework & schollruns here I come!

Mrs G joining me for a celebratory drink. Little G being awkward.:D

Just home, 3rd night in a row eating out and of course drinks included, very apprehensive about the next week, wish it was over but hope I enjoy it,trying to stay busy and not think about it but it hits me every now and again, loads more eating and drinking involved but then its water and lettuce (and a little wine)starting next Monday...or maybe the Tuesday..some day next week anyway 🙄.

Couchside back at home, after going to see the new Downton Abbey film with a friend. Very good film, well worth a watch if you enjoyed the series, like an extra long very well written episode.

Weather is utterly rotten. Nice to be indoors.

Back from a beautiful meal. Chilling wondering where the weekend went. Just got the “agenda” for next weeks hen party ... I’m too old for this malarkey!

Next week has been exhausting.

Time for bed , sleepy 😴😴

SaltSweatSugar

Sitting in my bedroom making phone calls to family. One of my uncles died suddenly today and we’re absolutely heartbroken. He wasn’t even 50, he was very fit and healthy. They think he had a heart attack. No history of heart disease in our family. I’m in shock. He was one of my favourite uncles and he used to bring us Cornettos whenever he came to visit in the 90’s when we were kids. My mum was so close to him. He took it very hard when she died. I don’t believe in God but I hope he and my mum are looking after each other somewhere.

His kids are still in Secondary school. I’m devastated for them and my aunt.

I was so happy earlier after having a great weekend at a friends hen party. Now I’m fighting to get time off work to go to my uncles funeral. Life eh?
