    Sorry I disappeared earlier went to change Ed's nappy and then we snuggled up in bed all three of us, it was lovely :D
    ....
    Got a free graze box today. No idea how long I will keep getting them. Next weeks is reduced, might stop after that... one drawback of them though - Izzy has helped me eat half of the dried cherries which were the first bit I opened. I want a look in too ;)
    ooh I was just putting graze on my christmas list!

    AM - hope your eye and Ry feel better soon and good luck for the meeting.

    I was sure I'd quoted others so :wave: :grouphug: :kisses3: to everyone else!

    My mum always makes sloe gin, its a bit late now but you can make any kind of gin/rum/vodka in the same way, mum always uses the cheapest smartprice gin as all the flavour comes from the fruit so it doesn't really matter.
    What about skittles vodka?

    Tia, I saw a real gingerbread house kit somewhere.. :o

    I got mine in Ikea :)

    Thanks everyone - it's so lovely of you all to care. Husband is agitating to be allowed home but it's not a good idea at the moment. He even tried negotiating weekend release, but if he has a staph infection he's just going to bring it into the house.

    I took him Chinese food into the hospital after he complained about getting a hot pickled cucumber salad for lunch. This date last year we got engaged and this year we're sharing nasty MSG-food while his mildly demented hospital roommate shows me his bottom and lies down to sleep in full laid-out-corpse position. Hmmm.

    :grouphug: for 3 and AM for being sick/having a sick family and :rotfl: at all the comedy typos.

    I need to write my research proposal but I have Molly asleep in the BB on my chest and it's taking ages to type.
