    Tia - I am not laughing - too familiar for me to laugh. Huge hugs, and sympathy, and alcohol, and a bed to sleep in if you are really desperate.

    Taurus - if you are lurking - thankyou. The only thing in the post that made me smile!

    mrs v -cant beleive you cleaned two kitchens I struggle with one

    tia- ((hugs)) sorry did have a smile whilst reading i think as long as its not happening in your own house you will however i'm sure every mum here could describe a similar incident.

    michelle-photos are gorgeous your baby is certainly growing up fast.

    vanilla-well done with getting your phone back i dont think many are returned.

    mudbath -very impressive list today i think i would be looking for more than one dog biscuit :D

    Flying hasnt happened here yet hoping the tennis restarts and I will start on the lounge then, mananged to pop to Morrisons when we were out so should have bought enough to do us until the end of next week just need to cook up a few meals, and we bought flour and yeast to try our hand at making bread - watch this space.

    Off to update sig and then get moving. HHc anyone??
