    You should have kept quiet about the 'cunning plan' - not sure as i will be giving you stars now :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hope you are all organised and A&W have got over their excitement - have a brilliant time.

    Doh! you see, too honest for my own good :rotfl:plus you might have sussed me when I posted next week saying the house was still a tip!

    It's a good job the forum has been down, barely had chance to switch the pc on let alone post. Was MIL's party on Friday night (went ok but had a major wobble when DH was mentioned as not being there) Miss A did her speech, she was excellent and made everyone feel so proud. We got the caravan out after swimming yesterday, the kids are really excited about tomorrow now. Then spent what was left of yesterday loading up and watching F1.

    Got the last few bits to do in the morning and then we shall away until Friday :D
