    Hi Everyone!

    JC I'm still fuming about what's going on with your son. What a bunch of kn0bs (can I say that without it sounding too rude?)

    LW {hugs} I sponsored a Rhino for years (a gift from my OH one birthday, my fave animals), and was heartroken when it died.

    Jackie, loving your tales of Basil, glad your arm's improving, although you nearly gave me a heart attack with your fall.

    I know there's lots of other news to mention, but I'm trying to reduce the length of my posts, so please accept my best wishes and hugs where needed.

    OS wise I built my mini greenhouse today, inspired by Diva's tales of her seedlings, cleaned out the kitchen cupboards and made a start on the back garden.

    Then I had a lovely lunch out with a friend, she has just recently had a baby and also has a three year old, who were both there and a delight (the baby slept all the way through unfortunately, so I never got a wee cuddle)

    Anyway, the reason for telling you all of this is to give you a laugh at her expense (she absolutely wouldn't mind), I'm sure those of you who've had children will understand the baby head. Just as we were about to leave the restaurant, she was sorting out her baby bag, and discovered a pair of her BLACK PANTIES hanging from the velcro, they had somehow got stuck and she had come there, walked all the way through the place (and the nursery earlier) with her knickers dangling from her bag. We hollered for about ten minutes, her wee one didn't know what was going on. Too funny. Luckily, they were from her clean washing. Or at least that's her story and we're sticking to it.
