    :eek: Good grief, wb, you are so right and I so can't count!!


    OMG, right, after this weekend I'm in full crimbo preparation mode.

    Shaggy, thanks for the yay!!

    Honey bear, make a hot drink if you drink them and try to surf the urge for 20 minutes

    YM sorry to hear about FIL fingers crossed for you and AF can wait till tomorrow. Bug hugs

    I'm up for the 72 hour challenge and have got home without wine tonight so that's the first hurdle.

    Back later.

    YM sorry to hear your news, glad that nephew is OK and hope FIL picks up.

    HB, hope I'm not too late and you haven't given up the struggle! I'm not sure about 72hr (at least not in one hit:D) but I'm going to do today at least and I'm sure you can too.

    wb, lovely news about your trip with DD. I really don't think she's too old for Hamleys as most young girls love the soft toy floor and the Hello Kitty bits and pieces. If you are going by train then you can use your tickets to get 2 for 1 on lots of things. What about a boat trip along the Thames and then she can get to see all the landmarks. Most museums are heaving at half term but the 'mummy' section in British Museum is good if she's into that sort of thing. Depends what you want to spend but the ice cream parlour at Fortnum's is a lovely treat too.

    Back later.
