    Toots - have stones or small rocks from all the places we visit in the garden...i know where virtually they all come from although no one else in the family does..or even cares where they are from!

    i strip of paper on dd2 ceiling but now oh has gotten out of his pit and getting in the way pestering!

    men...they are like kids....yet have the cheek to write things like this which my dad emailed to me
    World's Shortest Fairy Tale
    Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl "Will you marry me?"
    The girl said, "NO!" and the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and went fishing and hunting and played golf a lot and drank beer and scotch and smoked cigars and cigarettes and did drugs and went on holidays wherever he wanted and played video games all weekend and made love to as many women as he wanted and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and never made his bed and farted whenever he wanted.
    The End

    he didnt write it but someone sent it to him give my dad his due he helps my mum an awful lot
