Soappie i have the same in the utility room, with flakey paint. I started scrapping and now have one wall bare. When our livingroom was done by a proper painter, our wall bubbled so he scrapped it back and sandpapered it. I can still see the marks and it's so annoying.:rotfl:

Everyone eating and then we'll do a bit in the garden, now it's colded down.

GS1 has been knocked down at tea time. He is ok but sounds very much like he has a broken foot. DD wont let me go to the hosp so waiting for futher news. Have spoke on the phone to him so feel better Ive spoke to him. Foot is very swollen and a bit sticking out. All he is bothered about is his Rockports. He got off the bus and walked into the side of a car and it went over his foot. Bus stop just beside hospital so his mate carried him.

Hope his foot is ok, at least his mate carried him - what a good friend

My house is lovely and cool too.. good job really as as soon as I get hot I go to sleep!! lol...

Baby stuff smells all gorgeous and clean now.. I just love it!

OH trotting into the loft over the weekend to find my other 2 bags for the hospital stuff (just in case I can't get out of going ).. I am CERTAIN one has nappies in and one has possibly got maternity stuff in.. but we shall see I guess..

Off to do me knitting... I'll have another load of baby woollens to do before I pop at this rate!!

I wish we had a proper staircase to the loft.. I'd love to get my little self up there and sort through all the gibble that got stashed!

toochoosey

Pigpen, They should bottle the baby smell cause when they go to school it's a whole new smell....warm milk, chalk, paint etc.......Will try the johnsons stuff on DD tomorrow and see what happens......:)

pigpen

Wooosh - there's that comment going straight over my head! I've heard of Lady Ga Ga but am not acquainted with her songs.
