    evening all,

    had a fab afternoon, took kids to see Ice Age 3d, and really enjoyed it, xxx
    My light may be on, but that doesn't always mean I am looking at the PC - I am far more likely to be cuddling or feeding Tianna atm, so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't reply quickly :)

     Our Precious Baby Tianna has now joined our Family, she is much loved and very welcome, xxx
