I've just realised that if my dad is staying I'll have to put the hot water on for longer, put the heating on :eek: and worst of all, take the duvet off the spare bed and put a flat sheet and blanket on it :mad: I'll have to think of a few more jobs for him to do to make up for it!!!

All those on a curfew for their MACAW -

IT'S BEDTIME!!!

Toots - I bet you didn't ever think you'd be the standard that we were all aspiring to :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Well done :T :T :T

I can't imagine why both Toots & Mudbath think this is a madhouse... don't normal people spend all their free time online discussing housework and pegs and ironing dusters and putting mooncups in the DW

Valli & TAG - please play nicely with the new flybabies... we don't want them scared off on their first day. Leave it to Toots to lull them into a false sense of security, and restrain yourselves for the first few days of the weeks (after all, Valli, you'll be at work )

Toots - let me know if you need anymore help on the utility stuff. I'll be nagging you to get it done

Mudbath - more pics of Poppy please OH YES PLEASE MUDDERS!!!!

Just popped in before I run off to do my evening MACAW - thanks greenbee - feel free to nag - I must get his sorted.

and greenbee - not sure I should be lumped in with TAG and Valli - I dont have obsessions with ironing and pegs (yet) - but we could be the 3 mischiefeers!!!!

hope the dentist sorts out that sore tooth lil_me!

hugs for everyone - thanks pigpen I didnt have any biscuits for my cuoppa so of to munch my doggy bisc in bed with cuppa tea.
night night all

toots xx
