    Ug, cleaning - hope its gone well. And hope the piggy is doing fine :)

    But blimey yes, minus one child, even though much loved, and things get quieter :rotfl: even when they're grownups :rotfl: visiting my sister when her daughter is there is one thing. Visiting when her son is there as well is a completely different experience :rotfl:

    Very quick post :)

    Have date for kitchen fit (late Jan) and have paid deposit :)

    It's half term here and am off to bed - we're up again at 3am to go to the airport - suitcases are already in car, just phones/ tablets/ chargers to pack in hand luggage and then we're good to go! :)

    Quick check in from Portugal - lazy day today in villa :)

    My sis has had her baby whilst we've been out here :j: - was due 11th Nov but due to several complications she had him 2 days ago by c-section. He weighs a very healthy 9lb 7!!! :eek: Will go and see them when we are back :)

    Very relaxing week out here with very low spends (not intentionally). We fly back Sat lunchtime and should be home by teatime, all being well. It looks chilly at home - I can see the heating going on when we get back!!

    Tenant had an issue with drains just before we came out - I didn't feel it was fair that I picked up the whole bill so contacted the management co for the street - result is it's being shared between the 4 properties who directly use that drain - Great news as far as I'm concerned!

    Wow - two and a half weeks early and 9lb 7! My dd was 7lb 1- at 15 days late! Congrats to your sister x

    The clocks go back Sat night, so you'll all get an extra hour to get used to the damp and chilliness...
