    I've just employed slave labour!

    DH is currently rolling out and cutting out the biscuit dough I made this morning.

    Mind you have just cooked 60 chicken drumsticks, 100 cocktail sausages, made 3 jellies, a load of cupcakes.

    Still to do: bake biscuits, ice biscuits and cupcakes. Cook Sausage rolls, make cheese and pineapple on sticks, cheese and pickled onions on sticks, sandwiches.

    My SIL has specially requested the "honour" of making Rhys a retro cheese/pineapple/pickled onion hedgehog :D

    I need a plain white iced round sponge cake (already have the cake topper). Any suggestions anyone? :)

    Caz - thanks for the tip about the Loola harness. Ours is ok at the moment but with the cosytoes on it's way too tight and she's only little! Will e-mail them.

    Glad most of the ill children seem to be improving.

    I would email them now as it has taken around 3 weeks for mine to arrive! i meant to ask you at the meet but forgot :o

    [STRIKE]clear dining table[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]clean 2 glass doors[/STRIKE] actually I couldn't be bothered
    [STRIKE]dust shelves[/STRIKE] poked at the with a duster, made the dust move to the back
    [STRIKE]sort wires behind the tv and poke at the xbox to find out why it's not working [/STRIKE] it wasn't actually connected to the power pack thing.

    I can't be bothered, if folk don't think the house is tidy enough they can go screw themselves.

    Potatoes on for potato salad, my little menu will be...

    Potato and bacon salad
    potato and mayo salad
    cheese savory, cheese and whatever cold meat is there for sandwiches and some baguettes
    cheap tesco crisps.

    I actually feel really sick now though... should eat something but can't be arsed cooking. Toast I think, toast is great.

    Everyone pray that Atletico Madrid win tonight - BIL will get around £400 back and will take us out for lunch tomorrow :j

    He's now not going til Monday but I actually think I might miss him as he's been quite helpful in the last week :o

    I had a dream last night that J had no teeth - then the next day he had 24 fully grown ones :eek: Oh and the night before I dreamt I gave him a black eye in my sleep :o
    I got the torch to check at 5am!

    Krystal...what does it fold like? Does it fold over in half, or does it kind of squish down?? if that makes any sense!!!
    When the seat is forward facing it folds over in half, when it's rear facing, the frame still folds the same but you fold the seat back right forward and it's kind of on the top of the frame... It makes it quite long but it was the convenience of not having to remove the seat that was important to me rather than the folded down size... I'll try and take some pics for you...

    I was subjected to The Invention of Lying last night and it had to be the worst film I've seen for a long time. I really wanted to pour bleach in my eyes so he wouldn't make me watch it to the end.
