Just popping in to share some good news and thank everyone for the 'safe delivery' vibes. My friend's daughter finally had her twins by cesarean at 11pm last night. Not bad, considering she went in to be induced on Monday morning. They both weighed around 6lb and as far as I know, mum and babies are doing fine.
I've hoovered, DH and DS2 have replaced DS2's bedding, and I've decluttered some hair at the hairdresser's. Tea now, then DS2's bedtime.
See you all later.

I can just about keep it going keeping the radiators vaguely warm but it still keeps locking out... I'm not sure there is much left to replace as I've had a new motorised value, new room thermostat and new circuit board. And it didn't pack up till about an hour after the engineer went, so he'll have to hang around for a while when he comes back.
Appointment is booked for Monday. My dad is coming to stay on Sunday night so he can help me fix the DW and make sure the heating gets fixed too... there'll be rather a lot of washing up by the time he gets here!
Went for a walk which was nice - wish I'd gone earlier but I was tied up with work stuff. I've got more to do tonight, but hopefully i'll catch up soon0 -
