    Michelle I hope you had toad in the hole nomnom could have just eaten that but I'd defrosted a chicken curry :(
    Gryfon well done on paying it off, I only have one which I pay off each month, safer for me. With the boxes that is what I have done, put everything that needs sorting into boxes. I don't care if it takes months to sort the boxes as every room downstairs is how I want it :D
    g&b we've had a similar mistake made once with meds, but then there are other times it's just nice to know the pharmacist is checking with meds as DS2 is given higher doses of stuff because he's bigger but they always check because of his age.
    Pollybear my dogs are usually like clockwork too, they 'go' at the same time every day and it makes the woman I sometimes walk back with laugh as she says you can usually time your watch by them!
    Penny sorry but I have bought steak recently too, only bought fillet once but have had several rump steaks. Good quality meat will be the last thing
    greenbee sounds like you have been extremely busy!
    hex oh how cute, I remember my DS responding to Santa with 'no' when asked if he'd been good.....I am sure Santa gives bonuses to honest children
    soappie that sounds a bit of a pain, hopefully you will be able to sort something out.
    OJK sounds like yours are being like mine, giveawayable!!!! I've put the Star Wars they recorded yesterday on to hopefully keep them quiet as they are making my head hurt!

    EEEEEK I was sure that Roman's thing was Thursday until DS2 said it's on Beavers day, that's tomorrow! So we're going to have to get the foil out and get that armour wrapped in it, luckily I got some Mr T value tin foil free so not short of it.

    I've had to apologise to DSs that there wasn't an advent calendar this morning, I forgot, the material ones in the loft inside the decorations bag :o bad Mammy!

    DPs suggested going to get the tree tomorrow so we can decorate it tomorrow evening, hmmmm, not sure I want it yet. We usually get it on a Sunday but he's busy most Sundays until Christmas, actually if we're not going out this Sunday we could do it then....hmmm....I'm not sure. Suppose he'll go and get the advent calendar down if I say ok
