    Tag we have this one , it lives under the table with the door six inches from a wall so he can't get his face in. Sounds grim but I know it works because his 'depositis' in the garden are no longer full of cat litter *vomits*

    Littles have gone to bed, can I slope off with a book now? The joy of living with someone who understands why reading is essential cannot be underestimated. I must have been mad the first time!

    Froddington - woohoo re the ironing!

    Lil me- a very sobering concern - no pun intended. Is that why you rarely drink?

    A man that understands reading is essential. Woohoo!!! Well done you!!:j:j:T:T Ididn't think they exsisted.

    Tell me Hex does your DH have a brother? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Yes we do Pigpen!

    I for one think it should involve lots of loud hoovering, and bending to clean loos.

    not necessarily.. most of them are lightweights so will still be on tea!

    foul doesn't quite cover it.. think murderous and evil and on the verge of a major major meltdown.. not had one since the weekend before KH left, I think
