    Just having a catch up quickly I agree the age should be lowered in England for a smear it's 21 in Scotland I've had 3 and get my next this year, hate when people say they don't go it's nothing to be scared of or embarrased about I no someone who died at 21 of cervical cancer a simple 2 mins could mean the difference between life and death xx

    Wet and miserable here today and meant to be the same all week... joys.

    Was really hot here Saturday but started raining very heavily Saturday evening and all through yesterday too. We were meant to have a big thunderstorm Saturday night but it never happened.

    The vets think Oscar may have an allergy to something. Really f&!*ed off with everything going wrong at the moment. They wanted to keep him in and test him for allergies but our pet insurance excluded skin conditions from our policy as it was considered a "pre-existing condition", OH asked how much it would come to and they said about £500. Stuff that!!! For something that might not even be the cause! So instead he spent just over £100 on some special shampoo and some steroids... if he is ill on these tablets he is coming straight off them.

    Really had enough at the moment.

    Heating was only on to take chill off downstairs,it's off now tho.
    Awww hope Oscar is on the mend soon Flossie nothing worse than a poorly pet,especially if it's going to cost a fortune. I'm one who tries to find an alternative before paying vets prices as they're ridiculously overpriced. My mum paid £108 for a blood test for her jrt who turned out had swallowed a stone, surgery to remove and £900 lighter.

    Vets prices are ridiculous. If the shampoo works I will find a cheaper alternative in the future. Not paying £500 for a flippin allergy test though when it might not even be allergies... ridiculous! Serves me right for not going with p3t pl@n right from the start too then he would have no 'pre-existing' conditions and everything would be covered.

    As much as I love Oscar I do sometimes wish we never bothered getting a dog.

    Feel so down at the moment! Taking it out on OH too which is not fair as it's not his fault but I can't help it :(

    You need some time out to just relax, doesn't mean having to go away but just some you time at home. That's why I book holidays or just time off to stay home and not have to work. Escapism x

    Awww a cutie pie, you can give human piriton tablets for allergies but it's up to you,vets tend not to tell you as it's cheaper than their suggestions,I give them to my horse if his hay fever ( yes horses get hay fever) plays up.
    As for feeling down sorry you feel like that, take some time out with OH go to the cinema or something,away from the stresses.
    I like you thinking IDL fish are the way to go......

    The vet has advised someone should be at home all day with Oscar whilst he's on the steroids as they can cause side effects... so looks like no time out for us this week lol. Just emailed my boss to check it's ok to work from home for the week. Had enough today so if he says yes I will probably go home shortly... I want to hibernate in my pyjamas and try and forget the real world!!!

    Thanks for tip re. piriton x

    Personally I wouldn't choose to have the fish but hubby wants them so they're his responsibility. I did learn quickly though not to name any of them as I got attached then heartbroken when they died. They still need the aquarium cleaning and it takes up space. They are cheaper than other pets though.

    I feel the things I get stressed and upset about are quite trivial compared to other people's problems. Feel like I should just shut up and get on with it! Do feel down at the moment though and it's great to have this resource to get things off your chest!

    Boss said no problem to working from home this week so I'm gonna get going in a min. Getting straight into my comfies and hoping it's warmer at home than it is here lol.
