    Think I might go off to bed early again tonight, I'm shattered and have a huge amount of work to do the next couple of days. Slept 13 hours last night.

    Evening all. Well we have a C-Section booked for next Tuesday :T so arrival number 2 is inbound :eek: Ive got my time off work secured for the next month or so which is great news, especially on the Sky+ front :D

    Sall - I hate when kids bang their heads, especially the back of them, but I think skulls are tougher than we think. keep an eye on her and if you have any doubts give NHS Direct a bell (But I know you know that anyway)

    Sammy - Awww babe (can I say that??), you are such a powerhouse when it comes to looking after your family, a right little tower of strength. I think after what you said you may deserve a little cry. Dodgy threesome hugs for you :grouphug: If its any help I can pop in on my way back up the line on Thursday if you want :D And I will be nearer in July when we move to Pompey :j Serisouly though, why don't you take a little time out and concentrate on yourself for a couple of days and let them get on with it. How about delegating or empowering one of the older members of your clan, charge THEM with looking after the house maybe???
