    Looks like shrunken crisp packets are due for a revival - I'll see how they go down in my Folksy shop!!

    It probably wouldn't work with the modern foil crisp packets though would it? :confused:

    Getting through my mountain of washing. Only two more loads to go!

    DH went out an hour ago to get bread, milk, cornflakes and chocolate for me from the local corner shop. What on earth can be taking so long? I WANT CHOCOLATE! Do you think he will ever come back?

    Turns out he's not at the corner shop, he's at the supermarket 7 miles away. For bread and milk and a chocolate bar? What's the point of that?

    embb what I did with my 2 when they were little was I put some newspaper down under and around the tray for little accidents, then I started to remove it a page at a time :) they still getting into mischief now though, my clothes are never safe on the airer anymore and it's a nightmare to try and keep them off the kitchen surfaces!

    Been for lunch and to Mr S and have got a Mr T delivery coming tomorrow. Now I need to wield the dyson....

    HHC 2-2.30pm anyone?

    heard from my friend who will be staying in hospital until monday at least for tests and scans. She's still breastfeeding a bit so must be hard for her, but I do think she's in the right place.
