    Morning All

    :bdaycake: Happy Birthday Hex

    Didn't get on at all last night and I'm absolutely shattered today after waking up at 1.30, getting back to sleep at about 5 and waking up at 5.30! Haven't caught up with the thread but I'll catch you all tonight although the kids have got dentist at 4 and then DS goes swimming at 5.30 so it will be a bit of a rush until later on.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs
