  • Pigpen - I'm being thick as usual! The xmas card list, I'm right in thinking that the purple names are e-cards? Think I remember you posting that. And this is the most stupid question - does LL have the addresses for the others as there are no addresses on the list. Sorry for being thick!

    HI every one,

    and other grotty places!

    Is this refering to the kids bedrooms today or does that come another time??

    I could really do with some warning so i can get the masks and gloves out.

    I have been working on the theory that if they leave their bedrooms like a pig sty, they are the ones that have to sleep in it! However, being boys aged 13 and 15 ( yes i was a child bride:rolleyes:), they jusy dont seem to notice or care:o

    Suggestions please!,

    love H

    Brats rooms are separate.. back end of the week usually so we can put it off and make them help over the weekend.. but by all means jump the gun and get in there today!!!
