    How did the party go pigpen? Are you shattered?

    It wasn't too horrific.. the children were all ok.. noone was sick.. only one beaker of spillage.. and I didn't have to tidy my sty twice and all the mess was jointly cleared up... :D...

    It was definitely worth the money!

    Triker and DD2 were very well behaved.. she made coffee, and wrapped cake and other magnificently important tasks!

    I rewarded them by allowing them to come and stroke my baby puss.. :D

    Thanks Pigpen i'm glad the party went well.

    I've spent most of the day at the emergency dentist:rolleyes: , half of my tooth fell out the other day and the gum has swollen over the rest. Which means the jagged bit of tooth is pressing into my swollen gum:eek: , it's agony. The dentist packed it with some painkilling stuff and told me to see my dentist tomorrow. It's starting to wear off a bit now though.
