    G&B, as pigpen said, neuter her. Up here it is about £50ish for a female bunny. Is she nipping at your trousers and circling your feet too? Thats mating behavour, she wants to 'get a baybee' :D Neutering is very good for them anyway, and much better for house bunnies as it gets rid of unwanted behavour and smells.

    IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!!:mad:
    I was getting on fine, sorting my kitchen out and put some HMstock on the hob to reduce, then I thought I'd sit down in the lounge for 5 min whilst the stock was bubbling away.:confused:
    I then started reading the thread freom last night and onwards and before I knew what was happening my home was shrouded in thick grey smoke coming from the kitchen.:eek::eek:
    I only flipping boiled it dry!!! :eek:
    I have never done that before so you all will have to take the blame cause you distracted me!:naughty:
    Now the whole house stinks _pale_so I might have to leave the windows open and find an excuse to go out for the day!
    And goodness knows how I'm ever going to get the saucepan clean again...:confused:

    Morning Girls! :D ..
    I am off to prepare lunch for dd and ds. Not too happy, have just found one of my house plants that I have had for years all over the lounge; DD has given it a severe haircut with scissors, and then has cut the strings to one of my new handmade blinds :mad: Off to count to ten and have a cup of coffee!

    Sorry JoJo but I did ROTFL at the houseplant incident. My mum woke up to me doing that to her hair when I was that age, apparently waking up with an evilly grinning child holding a pair of scissors to your head isn't much fun!
    Think you may need the coffee, possibly a biscuit too (none for DD though?!)

    Can you believe it....DD has actually cut strings on 2 blinds!!! :mad: :confused: :eek: Just thought I would check the others to make sure they were ok. *slow steady breathing....I am sure I will find this funny in years to come....* Apparently she needed the string to make something but decided not to use the endless string/cotton/wool in the huge craft box that they have.

    ragz - I should be grateful it wasnt my or DS's hair and a plant instead!!!

    Mudbath - Im off to listen to some Lazy Town to calm down ;)

    Why is DH never around when they do things like this!!!???!!!

    My extra kids seemed a bit surprised when I told them if they didn't eat their dinner, they weren't having any pudding!

    No sign of the binmen yet so it looks like I've missed them - no, actually they've just arrived so that's a relief.

    Just ordered some trainers and sandals from Woolworths and an MP3 player for Christmas so that's good. The shoes were £1.99 or £2.99 each then 10% off and Quidco - the MP3 player's for DD for Christmas as she keeps trying to pinch my ipod. That was £14.99 less discount which I didn't think was bad.

    Afternoon all not done much today, just dalies.

    Have taken DS1 to town and got his mop chopped and got a birthday present for DS3 to take to a party on Thursday.

    Just going to put second wash on the line and then DS2 room to do - he has tidied most of it up so it should only take until school pick up time with his help.
