    I love that you have provided your kids with washing things, let alone normal! When I went to uni, my mum used to sneak playdoh in my stuff, she clearly didn't care whether my peers thought I was normal :lol:
    joyjoyjoy @killerpeaty well that has made me really giggle this morning - what was she thinking?
    She reasoned that drunk 18-19 year olds are effectively toddlers. To be fair, it was a great night and the play doh was in fact a big hit.  B) Unfortunately I can't tell you what happened to that play doh, it disappeared by the end of the first night presumably to great giggling and over dramatic sneaking.

    Sorry to hear that your buyers are being such a pain Greent. If your ones don't want the white goods, I have been told that they are popular on facebook market place.

    Why is the vetting process taking so long for your daughter?

    When I was first waiting to join it took six months and at that stage I don't think I was SC but I had to put in the forms after doing my induction training. I only worked with top secret material from time to time and always (successfully) argued I did not need the DV vetting - just rather intrusive and assumes you know everything about everyone you have ever associated with. Hmm (mumble, mumble)
