Also need to try and get hold of a PS2 box, we got DS1 a preowned one for xmas but there is no box with it. no luck on freecycle so will have to ask around.

Why don't you just set it up ready after the kids have gone to bed Christmas Eve with a bow and a tag on it then they won't need a box or put it in a Christmas gift box?

hello all

Just quickly checking in from work. Just to let you know I'm ok (I'm out tonight after work so won't get on til later if at all) - had a big chat with DH over a curry last night and we have sorted things out. Realising how upset I was made him examine his thoughts and motives and, amazingly, things have turned around. I know there will be challenges ahead but we've decided to just go for it and not be too scared of the consequences. DH said 'let's get on with it before I change my mind!'.

So, thanks for all the vibes and I am sure there will be ups and downs ahead, and thanks for all the advice as just chatting through it gently rather than being hysterical with him really helped. I know he'll be a great dad, if he can just believe that himself!

Mudbath

Rach - I'm so pleased for you xxxxx

Anyone for a HHC - I have a few dots that need erasing (not the woofit variety) before I end up having to do dot to dots on a daily basis.

530 until 6pm anyone xx

Dustykitten

Rach - really pleased for you both and hope it happens very soon x

Great 3 bids on this week's ebay item so that will be more clutter gone and more cash in!

Going to get DH to get the christmas lights down from the loft tonight to test they all work.

Dustykitten

Mudders - I'll join you I'm full of energy all of a sudden
