    litte lamb has been balancing for the last week and this morning
    took his first three steps on his own :j:j:T:T:T:T
    next stage,,,bringing his girl friend home and growling at his parents:rotfl::rotfl:

    took the kids to playzone yesterday ,es was not to impressed ,,,till i explained this is like the Japanese challenge show he watches on tv,,,broke the area down into different sections ,,,he spent 1,5 hrs trying to beat his time on each area,,,,then got the other kids doing the same,,,lots of parents with stop watches,,,,great fun...
    little lamb went in to the padded pen...thought throwing the balls at the 3 girls their was good,,,went into the mini house and tried to escape through the window,,,,just caught him in time:rotfl::rotfl:

    spent ten minuets putting the bins out this am,,,,then ten minutes taking the tags of and bringing them back again realised its BH :o....hope its not a hot week,,,cos with nappies in it, it'S goner smell!!! nappy bags dont help ..

    today's jobs..
    beds change
    loos clean
    bath room clean
    hoover/dust upstairs
    batch cook or dos in front of tv,,,,will depend on the kids
    going to search the inter~web now for info on free dustbin tags
    apparently i can get a 20 free tags ,,,that's almost a years supply at one every two weeks and they cost €8 so will save €160 a year :T:T also as we dont pay tax,,,,dont earn enough (tax free if earn under €200 add in tax credits to low wage ,earn €300 a wk tax free)
    so can also get a compost bin for free as well :T

    Hiya! Yep, can't hide from me forever! Happy Bank Holiday Shaun, don't work too hard.

    Bin tags - um, a tax on throwing your rubbish away? Thats not good.

    hi KC :j
    tax for rubbish :rotfl::rotfl: also so true
    but don't forget we don't pay rates and we don't have council or poll tax,,
    got over turned years ago ,,,we pay more in taxes than most countries through our wages,,,,
    what makes me laugh is the green bin instructions ,,,,
    please wash all tins and packaging and crush before disposal
    like !!!!!!!! don't they wont to get their hands dirty or does it save them a fortune in water charges not having to wash it!!!
    and what do these companies do with the free to dispose of recyclable stuff we send them,,,
    oh yes, they sell it, for a lot of money!!!!!!

    job list a a minimum today
    and i get pamper time this afternoon, oh had hers yesterday,,,(1 hr of me time)
    so haircut, shave(got all the buzzy tools),shower,then foot spa and read a book,,an hrs a bit tight,but it amazing what you can do in an hr with out the kids,,,
    catch you later
    xx

    Wow .... well, I hope you have a lovely pamper time!

    I've just done an hour's paid work for the first time since before France. For an hour, wasn't too bad. But I'm not doing anything else till Wednesday now. I have to stop coughing and falling asleep all the time!

    Enjoy your me-time Shaun! Why not slap on a facepack and crack open a box of chocs while you're at it?
    One life - your life - live it!
  • Have a good pamper time Shaun.
    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
    Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:
  • Afternoon Shaun,

    Hope you've had a sucessful morning this morning and I envy you having your pamper session...sounds like bliss! Although my escape was the car boot I did yesterday :)

    Well done to DS with his first steps, soon you'll be moving things up out his reach lol
