    PF Camilla I think tries too hard sometimes, she's always pulling really stupid face, the way she speaks sometimes, plus I don't think she's as good a dancer as some of the other girls. Erin's lovely! Goodnight x
    Triker, sorry to hear he's not a good patient. Todays usually accidents on the morning, people still with alcohol in their systems. I think you're safer at home x My DPs been bad for over a week with toothpain, well lack of tooth but the gap/hole/flap of gum after and the massive bruises on his face the dentist caused, he was a pain in the bum, mainly kept him on soups etc too
    Johanne you could try moving her gradually, I've worked with a few dinkies on this, has she got a dropside cot and is there room next to the bed to put it? Suggestion is putting it next to the bed as an extension of your bed initially, so she sees it as safe, settle her in it with you next to her if possible, if not on the bed next to it. Gradually working towards her being in the cot on her own, not be long before she's in a bed really. BABY STEPS! My DS2 was big and disliked cots so he was in a normal bed at 20 months (couldn't walk) he used to hit the cot all the time so we gave up on it.
    toots goodnight

    Well I've done pretty much faff all as my mother eventually phoned back, after not getting back in touch with me for 5 days because she's bloody ignorant. Got an idea what to get my Nana. Need to go see her before the funeral on xmas eve if she'll be in. Mam is now having to come over after Xmas as she's either busy with friends or we are, shame but if she'd called last week when I rang/text her each day to ask I'd have known what she had planned, she's changed her plans a dozen times so far.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    ssl= you have either been hibernating this last 3 months or your taking the p,

    even my 6 year old knows who he is - she got very upset earlier when I sid she couldntvote for him as we dont vote (daddy relented but he had to ask me the number:rotfl: )

    I have been hibernating! Didnt you miss me :p lol. The only one I knew about was John Sergeant as he got so much coverage.

    The only things I've been watching for the past 3 months are MOTD, MOTD2, Desperate Housewives, Survivors, Sunday Supplement, Mad Men and live football matches. Oh and the news. Now I've got a bit of time to myself, I have started watching Eastenders. I'm a bit confused. Everyone seems to be a Mitchell, a Branning or a Slater :confused:

    I'm not a real TV person either, even with things I like I tend not to take as much notice of it as most people. Here is the same I suppose, kids take over. I do record stuff (for others to delete grrrr) on the sky box to watch later but sometimes never get round to it. Kids watched some of XFactor in their rooms, same with that celebrity get me out of here, if it wasn't for the dancing I wouldn't watch strictly. On my + box (was) Ashes to Ashes, Top Gear and the Rememberance Festival, MOTD for DP, Grand Prix and then kids stuff I think.

    SSL I don't think you're far off with Eastenders :rotfl:

    Drats, kids have left PS3 on, don't know how to put it on the right channel setting thing, should I just put my finger in front of the lights as I am sure that switches it off, don't want DS1 to have another excuse to come downstairs...

    LL that's teenagers, my friends son comes in, dumps his washing, eats food and goes back out, usually for several days. She lets him without moaning so he does it all the more now.
