    Aw Caz, poor Charlie! Chris isn't ill, it's just his thing. What a !!!!! having a go at you! Hope he is ok.

    They changed them but then didn't add them to the invoice, so we didn't pay for the bulbs, just the 4 tyres and the MOT har har har :D It's a big chain known to rip folk off...

    Sami, we have to keep a diary for a year. But he's been doing it since he was 2, this i the longest it has went on for though, usually it's 4 days max. He's been saying his knees are hurting just before bed too, don't know if maybe he is having a growth spurt or his muscles are getting very stiff, but then why would that cause him to be sick?

    back from DR
    she was running late which was just as well as just as i was putting his coat on, he brought up more milk and bit of phlegm.
    so shechecked his chest, says its sounded fine, so relieved bout that.
    looked at his ears, said they are ful of wax .... (how the hell am i meant to clear them out??) didnt give me any advice on how to clear the wax out. i use a cotton bud when i can get to the wax (looks like its oozing out by then sorry tmi)

    and said has a slight ear infection so put him on anti-biotics.


    then went to chemist, gave me a syringe to use for the meds, got home and he's to have 2.5ml 3timesa day. so they gave me a syringe for 5ml!!!!
    luckily i kept the ones from when he was having trapped wind.

    Aww bless him, I hope the knees thng is just growing pains and I won't hold my breath for a solution for the sickness :(

    Poor Charlie. Let us know what the doctor says Caz?

    My [STRIKE]minion[/STRIKE] research assistant got a shock today. My boss had managed to double-book himself so each of us was due an hour-long meeting with him, and [STRIKE]minion[/STRIKE] was certain that because he was bringing Important Scientific Data he'd win. But I'm the senior on the project so I got the meeting slot and [STRIKE]minion[/STRIKE] is thoroughly peeved because he genuinely thinks he's more important even in a country where the hierarchy is all important.

    But most of my stuff for today is done and so I am sneaking off for a leisurely lunch out with my lovely Molly and some other less important people. Oh and I've just seen the FB picture of Tara's DD and DD cuddling and am all misty eyed.

    gadz, rivers of snot.... Green is usually a sinus infection of some sort. He'll no doubt be fine now.


    Well, princess poop is awake and wanting lunch, so best go and get the boys fed too. She's really started to grab at things now, lunging at them :D And her favourite toy at the moment... an empty pack of wipes :D She will sit for ages crinkling it up.

    Awww poor baby. Least he has magic medicine to make him better now. Leave his ears, not much you can do and they will clear when the infection is done with.

    I've been saving envelopes with windows because Molly's fascinated by the crinkly versus noncrinkly bit.

    Right, must dress the monster and take her out.
