    That's not good Toots - Take it easy and rest - make sure you look after yourself.

    Morning All

    DS is asleep in my bed so I've stripped his bed and it's in my WM. Actually he's getting up now! Other than that I've caught up on the thread and input some Flora vouchers.

    Going to do a HHI while I'm waiting for the kids to get up and get ready and then we'll go and see to the animals.

    Have a good day all

    Morning all

    Tooch - the nappy cake - that's great - well done!
    Greenbee - I have a special MSE facebook profile plus a 'real' profile but I'm not friends with myself because my 'real' profile hasn't joined the mse group...
    sexym - well done on your interview -fingers crossed!
    Toots - hope your tum settles down quickly

    Oh and Plan B - we have a flicker of life in the engines - I spent yesterday writing two articles for an online freelance site and have just found out I've been accepted as a contributer :D It's not going to get me riches but it's a start and it'll be a show case for my writing work.....

    We have had a thunderstorm rolling round here for the last hour or so and it's really, really humid and keeps tipping down with rain. My gardener was due to come today but somehow, I think he might give it a miss....
