    Well the hybrid ones I am dealing with are so far away from normal willow that they do indeed often snap - so maybe that explains it - she is a hybrid stick.

    Hope you are well ce soir and peedie breeks is asleep and (short trousers - orcadian name for kids - peedie breeks) isnt piddling everywhere.


    I'm good. resisting the lure of the nice wine in the fridge (bought by dad...I normally buy cheap crap!). Peedie Breeks is fast asleep with stickers all over him (don't ask!). Still wakes up during the night so me and OH taking turns to sleep on blow up bed in his room every night (he cries if we aren't there...so sad :cry: ). At least blow up bed gets me away from OH's snoring!:D

  • Miss P good for you for resisting the call of the wine - enjoy it properly tomorrow - with no guilt attached.

    I swear if I write on more thing about global energy - CO2 or bloody willow - I will combust. Yeah its interesting but not when you have rre-written the same page about 6 times.

    10 pages of corrections - I am only on page 2 - am considering a career as a circus acrobat - always fancied being a yoga teacher......perhaps a change of career is in order.

    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM - write up isn't going well - at all.

    Debt wise I think (only think mind) that my last DD's that I coudln't shift come out tomorrow.

    When I will get paid next month however is anyone's business?!?!?! BB lodger chap leaves in about a month - which will be a big blow to the finances - but already have someone from work - chap I share an office with - semi-interested in the room. So it might be less for the room as the guy will be here paying on a monthly basis (current chap is on a daily B and B rate)- but still more income than none.

    Nothing wrong with being that height. Most of the women in my family are. My father is over 6ft tall so I'm somewhere in the middle though more to the petite end of the scale. My OH thought I was tiny till he met my family.

    sounds like my family, at 5'9" im the short one in my family!:rotfl:

    I have never felt the need to grow up and I am 5'6" even more in heels. Enjoy being a kid, who says we can't?

    :beer:
  • EEEK welll I must be a micro-midget or a nano-midget if Piq is a midget.

    My OH is the tallest in his family at 6' 1" - needless to say we don't take a nice photo unless there are steps involved :)

    I'm 5'6", so having a really tall Dad and the rest of my family being tiny it looks strange.

    Its my biggest weakness - tall men - shivvers - (sorry men under 6ft tall) they just don't 'do it for me' some look for nice bums or twinkly eyes - I need TALL. TALL I tell you TALL..........:D this one isn't too bad on the eyes either:D

    Never been out with a man under 6ft my entire life. Mind you haven't been 'out' with many men truth be told.

    TBH I think its my genetic predisposition calling to breed with men that are a decent height to reduce the amount of 'hobbit' in my own gene pool.

    Hairy toes
    Desperate meal planning
    Several breakfasts a day
    Predisposition to all things outdoors and wonderful
    Lives in the shire
    Reduced stature
    Stripey socks

    Surely you had all guessed by now??

    DS does such a decent impression of 'my precious' its a bit scary.
