Morning all
I'm just popping on now to get my list while i print off some Peppa Pig pictures for Ds2 to colour. It keeps him busy while i get on;) .
He's not in my good books today, we've got a gate on the kitchen but he can open it. No matter how many times i tell him not to open it he does.:mad: This morning he went in the kitchen and broke my pyrex bowl as he was trying to get a plastic one out. :mad: :mad: He likes pretending to bake so i'd already got him some bowls and a whisk out and taken them into the living room but that wasn't good enough he wanted more:rolleyes: . Oh well at least he's taking an interest in cooking it'll come in handy for him;)
I've take a superduper painkiller as i can feel a migrane coming on so i'm hoping it'll help and i can work through my list.

Lil_me It is rather nice having him on board, he didn't even complain that he walked in and I was asking him to help me. Supper was bril too. We ordered Nepalese instead of curry (DF is a bigger fan of curry than I am) and we have definitely found a compromise
Toochoosey :rotfl::rotfl: At you with the spiders (sorry)
Holly We have a panini maker now instead of a toaster...works much better on pitta breads and we do big naans too:) Just a thought-we got our from argos on sale at £13...sorry about the phone.
Pigpen Congratulations on your assignment. I really am in awe of you...all the kids and studying what you are (I know, you say you dont keep up but you manage all of us so well and that makes you very special inmy books)
Julie Whats Pride of Britain?
Sexymouse and Sarah hope you both feel better soon.Its horid.
Ginger I always laugh when you talk about the wooden hill. I was thinking about it last night wondering what I would do-then I got it...I would go down the hill but its only a very short one as we only have three steps
Toots I for one would be honoured to be called your friend.
Muddy You spolied my fun, I wanted to ask-but Sexymouse I also keep wanting to call you kitten:)
Rach I hate that! All I can say is hope it sorts
Well I feel better now that I've caught up on everything.
I think I may watch H&A before I get cracking (not that much to do anyway-dailies done already).
mmmm coffee?:coffee: Anyone want some?
Oh and by the way...I wrote this post using my stickies which was much easier than word coz I stuck the sticky to the page so I didnt have to keep switching:)0 -

huh?????
paracetomol - it's a joke which I can't remember but the punchline is 'because the parrot's et em all!'
Polka it's an awards show where people's contributions etc are recognised and was shown on tv last night - so there are stories of triumph over adversity - and cute kids who ring 999 like the one who phoned because mummy had really bad tummy ache then shouted 'a baby's coming out of her...' and the little boy (so cute) who phoned because his mum was in a diabetic coma and he couldn't give her any sugar - he told the operator that 'mummy needed sugar' and ambulance was sent and he was worried because he would have to let them in and he was still in his pyjamas... the young man who was shot in a failed car jacking and now works with ex offenders... http://www.prideofbritain.com/
HHC 10.45 Polka?
only me and you here? (could be wrong)
