Daily thread for saturday 19th july!

don't know where to put this...so I'll try here.

Up to what age is a child interested in a playhouse? Am thinking of buying one, but its only 117cm in height. Am concerned that it might be too small.

Comments?

MIOLIERE,
Thank you for asking, I have been phoning DB2 since I got back from hols but he has not answered until tonight. He has had some work on his friends boat. DB2 went to his friends boat (Dartmouth) and discovered that his friend had commited suicide.
Hence DB2 has not wanted to talk. I worry about him. He has to get his Melanoma checked again on Tuesday.

Spoke to DB1 today, blood count has not increased in the last 4 weeks, so good news there.

Mioliere, thank you once again, felt a bit unsure as to whether to report on both DB's. Bless you and every friend here who has sent wishes. x

I was away at the start of the week and bought six new-to-me tops in various charity shops for under £18.

I spent more in M&S on raspberries, chocolates for work and treats for my kids and OH for when I got back (most were on offer, in my defence). The thing is - I was going to go to a local deli to get stuff - and it turned out they only opened at 11am - and I had to be at the airport for 11.30 - had it been open I would not have gone anywhere near M&S, and so I would have spent a lot less.

Oh well - thankfully there is no M&S anywhere near me, so I'm not that extravagent very often...

Last week I had a holiday from being an MSE-er. I shopped in M & S's food hall and bought some ready meals. (I'm not daft, I bought the ones that were on offer at half price). I had friends over and bought a takeaway to avoid cooking and I bought 2 new tops in the sales. (decluttered many old ones). I'm back to the old MSE routine but I did enjoy the break.

Go in peace, my child, and make 3 Hail Mary Rose sauces.

I have a similar sized playhouse for the childminding children, they all love it up to school age and after. In fact, my DD who is 10 will still squeeze herself into it - so really while they can fit into it, they will use it!!!

Hmmmmm. Sounds like it could last around 3 years then until about 5 or 6. Correct? To plunge or not to plunge.

This is what I'm thinking about

The reason why I'm worrying so much about it is firstly we don't have a lot of cash to splash, and most of the money will come from my parents as a belated gift. So don't want to do it wrong.
