    what a lovely DS you have there - you are doing a lovely job bringing up these boys on your own!
    would it be too painful for Dh to get a model of what was his favourite sports car - would he remember driving? a small one that he could have on his bed table even or as an ornament? sorry to go on about it!:o

    ETA perhaps you might be able to get a remote box that would sit on a non=slide mat IYKWIM - ok I will shut up now!!!!

    :wave: Just had a bit of a strop here over clothes and lack of space! Latest plan is to get some flat packed boxes (yes more, but I'll use them in the basement later) and to lable them all and put everything into them. At the moment I can't shut my wardrobe doors and I have no idea what's in the piles! Soonish I'm going to have some fitted wardrobes made so I can store everything and get to it easily (deep drawers are rubbish). Sure I've got a load which can go to charity as well but I have to get to it all first! Also some is good for dressing up or using to chop up to make something else.

    So off shopping! Think Mr G is worried that I'll go through with my planned washing strike ;)
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

    SPC2 #571 - trying to get as much as possible
  • ok so far
    first load on the washing line
    bed stripped
    bedding in WM.
    duvet airing
    rubbish out
    procrastinating
    posting on here
    so all in all not a lot done!!!!

    HHC 11.30-1200 ANYONE!!!!!
    Peace will be mine

    Tootiefrootie, thank you x.

    DH loved cars, and when i bring it up he tells me that he needs to get out of his chair to go for a drive:) Then he says I cant get up...what has happened to me? I have to tell him that he had a car accident and he is in rehab....he then asks why what happened....I tell him i dont know and he asks why....I say I wasnt there i was with the kids at home, this conversation happens every time i go to visit!!

    I will buy him a porche replica, as he loved these cars, thank you so much for that idea!!

    As it stands he has from "santa" and the kids 4 Man U tshirts, 3 Man u Dvds, Socks, trainers and a picture album of the kids growing up and partaking in various activities!!!
