Matthew cat spent all night sleeping with my MIL :A, with the net result that it is the first time she has slept through since we lost FIL months ago. He is now snoring on the Times after a hard nights snuggling. I think it must be lovely to be a cat. As long as he doesnt think he is sleeping with us tonight :cool:

Maybe you could hire him out??

Hugs to ladyliberty

Evening everyone, i've read but can't remember as i'm just so tired.
Hubby even let me have a little lie in this morning which was great.
Kids need to go to bed soon, Rhys will some be wanting feed. School uniforms are ready and DS2 got a new school bag (bet the old one shows up now),so need to put them all together.

I'd be up for a trip to the seaside later in the year...

Oooh, that would be lovely, we could do a cup of tea, by the sea
Hope lil_me is having a good time and is not too nervous.
Sexymouse - what a good way to get through an onerous task, not long to go now:D plus you were able to give Lady-L rl hugs instead of the virtual one's I'm sending now (((hugs)))
Pigpen - good to hear that you were were enjoying your well-deserved child free time and have had a safe journey home.
I'm loving my bunny, thanks Toots but don't know if I'll manage one next week because I really have to crack on with the decorating so maybe level 1s all week

See you all on the new thread.
