Can someone please tell me how to do the crossing out thing?:rolleyes:

Highlight the text you want to cross out and then click the little button with the struck through S on it.

Apologies to those of you who have had the sun go in suddenly. I think it must be my fault. All this summer when I've been sitting in the garden I've been squinting when reading because I didn't have any sunglasses that I could use to read with. Well I've just bought some. And yes, as soon as I got to the checkout, the sun went in :rotfl:

TAG

Right one more game of Delicious 2 then I'll start flying. DH and DD have gone as well now so just me DS and the puppy till midnight. :j

Put the washing on the line as the sun was out but now it's gone really dark so looks like I'll be bringing it back in again.:mad:

Same here. I'm just about to go and fetch mine in.

Okay, I've spent an hour in DD's bedroom and it doesn't look much different - I think I'm losing the will to live!

Morning all

This board is great my house looks better already.
DD2 spent her first night in a proper bed last night. She went down at 6 and we didn't hear a peep till half 6 this morning (touch wood it continues like this).
DS and DD1 went to a musical theater group yesterday and they both loved it. Hope its the right thing for DS hes not very active (had a brain tumor last year) so I thought this might be a bit easier for him than a sporting activity just worried its a bit feminine.


JustaMum Yessir back, I live in Douglas where abouts are you
Niki Love the pictures
cha97michelle What nappies do you use ? The only ones we've not had that problem with is Tesco's
boddy I have been very mischievous whilst drunk but I would never take someones gate off.
ssl i always sprinkle wee with bicarb and leave it for half an hour then hoover up. It works well for any type of smell in fabric.
pigpen a tetanus would be a good idea if its not up to date.

Oh, **** I just lost my post again.

Good news on my lads room. They cleaned and tidied the window ledge after being nagged , asked, begged for 6 months.

juliejim I don't want to make you feel worse. I don't know what age your kids are but they do go through good, helpful stages. It just doesn't last long. Mine will vacuum, hang out washing, chop veg, make biscuits and scones but can't pick clothes off their own floors or put rubbish in bins in their rooms.

pigpen Ouch, make sure your tetanus is up to date.

justamum It's about to cloud over here too. I think it is going to rain so I will go and do HHG, pulling up shoulder height nettles, before it rains. It is cold again today and I am still wearing winter clothes.

soappie, I thought it was my fault the sun went as I bought some sunglasses on Thursday and I haven't needed them yet.

AnW'smum, its lovely to see you back again. I hope things are going well for you. It must be hard reading about what someone else is going through. Good luck on the weeding. I am losing the battle, hence just pulling them up for now.

Skintscotslass - You're family sound like mine, constantly shaming and embarrassing me, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before my mum starts watering people's cars too! Can't you blame the sick and wee on dog too? Say you took it for a drive and it didn't like it?

lol, I didn't think about blaming it on poor Harry the dog!!! I confessed right away to BF. Otherwise I'd worry all day about what he'd say. But on the positive side, I think the pee is mostly pure vodka, there isnt really a smell. So not all bad news

Thanks Kate. Thats what I decided to do after my internet research last night. Nice to know it works

Julie - I forgot you were in Stoke. We went to Alton Towers on Wednesday. I loved it!!! DD is not impressed, so will have to go again once she is back.

AnW'sMum - hugs for you hun xx
