    My Hubby just did a whole research project on the McGann brothers since I told him Joe was clearly better than Paul... At least... When you're 11 anyway...

    I take it you're watching JC then, complete with token McGann brother!

    Hugs AF :A

    I'm off to bed now to avoid the lure of the easter eggs.

    I'd have gone ballistic about the bag of tacks FWIW! Seth does "drink" out of our mugs and glasses if they're left empty on the table and he gets to them before we move them, but we dont really make a big deal of that. The main concern in our house is electric cables, as by our sofa theres a 4-way extension thing and I worry he will eat the laptop cable. Its always turned off at the wall though! But we made a big deal of that and tried to stop him going for the cables, and now he goes right to them at every opportunity cos he loves the attention, even if it is a big fat NO!

    He did understand "no" last week, but this week chooses to shout "YEAH" back at me and carries on anyway... oh dear!

    Wow Bruno! A little extreme maybe... No purple mimosa soap bars?

    We are GISI... Although not nekkid... Hubby said it's so last year to be nekkid...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    RIP LITTLE MOUSE....

    LOL, first thing to hand? I regularly kill beetles with Idris' boxers if they are the first thing to hand in the kitchen. Cover the beetle with said underpants and STOMP STOMP STOMP.


    Em - That sounds well funny. Seth sounds really cheeky. Lovely :D

    When I saw Footloose at the theatre Joe played the vicar/priest (and Derek offof dancing with the stars was 'kevin bacon')
    was it Joe who was in The Upper Hand? I used to LOVE that and had a wee crush on which ever one he is/was

    Oh dear! My Dad used to get loads of mice cos he has stone walls (rather in brick) so we had traps everywhere!

    I remember being home one night and he hadn't told me he set them and I heard snap, snap snap at 3am :eek:

    More sleep during the day is defineitly the way to go in this house! Jack had 90minutes at 11am, then 1hr 15mins at 3pm, another 30mins at 6pm and went down no problem tonight. We have a routine but the times vary everyday cos he wakes up at different times - today it was 8.45am :D but that won't work when I go back to work!
    (and it was only because he was in our bed from 5am!)
