Lol @ 'what is she called tonight'.....freckles, tilly or poppy. DH has come up with spotless or stripes!!! His choices WON'T be happening but they cracked me up! xx

I like Tilly and Poppy - for what it's worth! I've got freckles! I'm a real true ginger so I wouldn't use that as a name- but Tilly seems to be sticking...
Poppy makes me think of Playdays which DS and DD loved...we used to video it so they had plenty to watch and it was watched again...and again...and we got DS a birthday card on and I managed to tape it!

So hope your family will have expanded by tomorrow night...that dawg needs you..and deserves you XXXX

Mudbath

Thanks valli - I'm red and freckly too so whilst I think the name is novelty value I don't think that one will happen. I love tilly (she was born in May so she'd be Tilly May!) but i've still got to convince everyone else. Mind you - if I managed to persuade my DH to get another dog then a name is nothing!!!!! I'm having a large glass of red to try and help me sleep, 'medicinal' only! :rotfl: xx

Vali - my DS loved playdays too. And like you we taped episode after episode - the roll up and ride on rosie were his favourite ones. We used to have a jay which visited the bird table and he used to come running to me saying 'why bird is in the garden'

Valli

Mudbath - Well how bout that!

Think it's settled...Tilly May...she's yours - I'm sure!
I'm trying to edit then I don't run...
Dusty - Can you believe I had forgotten about Why bird!....
That was quality TV for kids - they'd watch that and I would have a coffee..
Went to a panto once and the actor who played 'Grandpa Jones' was in it ...I was so thrilled...

Mudbath

Why haven't I heard of playdays? xx

Just thought you'd like to know that it has been noticed your list is getting shorter...
How is college going? And are you all better now?
And I hope the neighbours are MUCH more considerate/quiet tonight!

Tia that rings alarm bells like what hapened with my 2, DS1 and 2 were refered to SALT, because their HV left & they weren't assigned a new one it wasn't chased up, they waited about 5 years. Hence we worked ourselves on it, probably did a better job....regardless someone, like in your case, should have chased it up

Anyway got the car rubbish finished, bathrooms tidier but needs wiping, some studying, not too bad an evening.
