    I don't watch xfactor, in fact I don't watch tv much at all. cdwm and hollyoaks (which I am boerd of at eh mo so not bothering with either) ar about it, apart from specific programmes that we record which I can pretty much list on one hand. I alway turn the tv off once the kids have gone to bed, can't stand it blasting out rubbish;)

    Oh I love the silence, we even mute adverts (or fast forward if recorded) We have even trained the kids to mute adverts on the cartoon channels:)

    Evening all. Will catch up in a mo if I get the chance. A good time was had by all (even DH) at the party - 1st birthday party , 5 baby girls plus parents and some grannies, grandads, aunties and uncles. Then my parents came to us for tea too. What a busy day!

    I've been busy making a scrap book of pictures of food this evening too - I haven't done this much cutting and sticking since I was at primary school :)
