    Tough times rhos:o

    But look where you are now:T

    It was hard, mainly came after we got married and had to move from family farm and oh worked there but lost it all because of me:o. But we had a lot of fun times to, the favourite is when dd1 was 4 and we where hiding from rent nan and she went and spoke to him through the letter box and said mummy is hiding behind the door :rotfl:

    But your right we are in the best place now and not a day goes by when I don't apreciate how lucky we are :) xx

    I had lodgers in the mid 90s, Mon to Fri only, room only (I provided linen, loo rolls and soap) and they paid £25/week each and they bought and cooked their own food.

    That would be reasonable... I could throw the kids out and rent their rooms out x

    Skydiving too:o

    I nearly had to be anaesthetised every Saturday afternoon:o

    Mine have done this in a tunnel a number of times, but for real once... I nearly died. They were also in the Aircadets where they flow loads of different planes.. I think parents need to be prescribed anxiety medication!

    I always think that you have got a wonderful life and love reading about the trials, tribulations and antics of the children.

    I always think that without the hard times, we never appreciate the good times x

    There were times when youngsters received their wages, and handed these to mum who then gave them pocket money.

    If I pushed too much, they may choose to leave home and nothing is worth that.......I miss them when they go away for a few days. I always talk to DS2 and DS3 every day. Our new house was designed so that they can all live at home forever, even with girlfriends and kids!



    What sports to they do?

    Mine do sports like kayaking, climbing, biking. Anything dangerous....x

    You are so right . i also want to keep them at home as long as possible .the sports sound same as my boys average weekend. :p the two of them have 4 kayaks in the garden. And a sailing boat, not to mention the speed boat at the land, and why do 2 boys and oh need 10 bikes between 3 of them .
