lil_me

pigpen well done!
poohbear big hugs for you, I agree bleach or wucalyptus oil, there is mould and mildew removes you can get aswell. If it's painted or similar you could sandpaper it off aswell. Really happy for you about the good news however, you must be very relieved about that.
sexymouse I agree with what toots said, you're braver than me!
Hugs for Sarah too x
boddy another hug I think needed there.

I have my baby size laptop DP doesn't like it, says it's too small! While I was thinking about it I thought about the R4DS cards I'd ordered for the kids, realised they haddn't arrived yet. Checked the tracking number on the website 'we tried to deliver Thursday 25th and left you a card' well they haven't left a card! Just ranted via email (as their office closes at midday).

DP then dragged me round looking at different caravans, well it's made me realise how much I like ours! Some of the interiors in other caravans are bloomin awful! I know when the boys get bigger we'll need an alternative layout due to the max weight limit on bunks, but like I said when the prices came back, why pay more out just yet? I am impressed however, he offered us £200 less than we paid trade in, so obviously worth more on the open market Cheapest one I can find private is £1000 more than we paid so that definately was a good buy considering we've used it a lot aswell. I think we'll be best off waiting, finish paying it off then sell privately if/when we need to.

Need to go get the boys swimming stuff ready in a mo, feeling rather tired but DSs were up at 4am, After swimming I need to do some serious studying, exam is on Wednesday and I am still pretty clueless. I have managed to get in at the dentist on Monday who will hopefully be able to stop me being in total agony for it, I hate toothache.

In my HHC, I put 3 loads of washing away that have been cluttering up the hallway, loaded and put the WM on, and cleaned the splashback on the oven. I also attempted to put some bits and pieces in the DW, but the rest will wait til OH gets home cos I never put them in right, and he can always fit twice as much into the DW than I can. Oh I nearly forgot - I packed my gym bag ready for aqua class at 6.30 - will need to be at the gym by 6 to make sure I get a token, cos it's the only day it's on in the evening, so I'm sure it'll be busy.

Will run the hoover around in a minute and then have a cup of tea before I go out. Can't remember if I was meant to ring my Mum about tonight or not, as she's meant to be meeting me there. My brain has turned to mush since I've had this cold - this morning I couldn't think what the definition for a polygon was!

Oh well, off I go again.

DS1(16) lives with his dad. So it'll be his dad that has a frosted window;)

Though I think I'm partly responsible. I popped in on the way home from work on Tuesday and spent a bit of time with him on the xbox in his bedroom. I just happened to mention the window was 'minging'.

He'll never admit it, but I knew it wouldn't stay that way for long after my passing observation

It appears that he has totally 'flyteened' the whole room today. Apparently all the contents of his room, including the bed are currently on the landing. If you knew the size of the landing you'd be as gobsmacked as me as to how he managed to get it all out there in the first place. Bedroom has been hoovered, dusted, polished and it's only taken 4 hours. Bless!!

POOH - NO PROBS - I'll do your flying if you'll do my 20 lots on ebay!!!:rotfl:
toots xx

I need my lots put on ebay too. I have done two today. Pathetic, I know but I will get the hang of it again soon.


Thanks for the mould advice lil_me and TAG. I will see if I can buy an anti-fungal to put in the paint as we have already bought it.

lil_me, can you put the boys in an inner tent in your awning when they get bigger? We had 6 of us in a 4 person caravan for years then when the kids were bigger we put up a little tent inside the awning , so we could keep an eye on them. Later they opted to sleep in a tent near to the caravan.

Oh how I wish for those days. I loved caravanning with them all. Big sigh!
