    Just had a lie down, not to sleep but had to close my eyes. Feel ok now. DD has been great. She's only 9 and she emptied the dishwasher, played with her brother and is now making a cuppa.
    Too many children, too little time!!!

    The fence is pretty high in most places.. 6ft I think.. But the kids are so horrible they've actually kicked a hole in the 1 fence panel (the rest is gravel board) and there's a gap where the gravel board ends... I have some wood I might be able to cut down and nail over the hole... But I don't want to be forking out for a new panel when they'll probably do the same again... Where the gap is, I'm thinking of planting a clematis, they grow huge and bushy pretty quick don't they...

    Laurel bush would be better. :D

    I don't think they could get close enough to dig anything up, that's one of the places where they have crap piled... I don't want anything too spiky... Aimee has a habit of picking at things in the garden... Even the brambles that grow through the hole in the fence from next door...

    I just discovered on facebook one of my friends husband's plays football with someone I went to school with... How random is that?!
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Laurel you can but quite large and cheaply, it's dense and not prickly.

    Have bought from these people before. http://www.chewvalleytrees.co.uk/product.php?id=747&cat=-1

    We bought to block our neighbours out. I rang them and told them the height I wanted, they looked around for me and rang back.

    OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!

    I asked OH to get down the old clothes of Jasmines from the attic so I could pick out all the neutral ones and wash the rest to either keep if I have a girl or sell

    Seemed like a really good idea at t he time, but I had forgotten how much stuff I had kept over the last 6 years :eek::eek::eek:

    My sitting room looks like a pink and purple bomb has exploded :rotfl:

    Any of you that have sold on ebay, do you list similar items together or individual outfits, need help as I have never sold on ebay before, so this is a steep learning curve :D
    The two best things I have done with my life
