    Morning all

    I was like a bear with a sore head this morning - did not sleep well and kept dreaming.

    I should start packing as I know that is stressing me but I hate packing so much and have so many other things to do.

    Thanks AnW'sMum, MOzzy and xx for your replies. We have a wii and have the starwars and mario games for that so I'd not want to duplicate. I'm not really sold on getting him one as he has the old gameboys plus games of the other 2. He like DS2's iphone and I wonder if he would play with the DS it is a hard decision as it is a lot of money.

    Right I can't get my head straight as to what I need to do before I go out - I'll start by finding my list.

    Rose - hope you are ok today
    Carlsberg - lots of us have felt upset by the odd post over time, we are a forgetful, forgiving non judgemental lot so please don't stress yourself and I did not see it or if I did I did not think anything of it.
