Apart from the dailies, I haven't tackled much today. Everything fly related is making me sneeze. I may have to accept the blooming nettle tea isn't working and ttake some hayfever tablet. Can anyone reccomend something the doesn't bung you up at night?
My sister got some good news today. My niece has won some tickets to see 'Guess how much I love you?' at the theatre. She entered a drawing comp at Waterstones. DS2 entered a drawing too but as his had guns and army tanks on, for some reason it wasn't chosen :rotfl:. My niece loves drawing and has entered loads of comps, but this is the first time she has won a prize. I was really chuffed for her.Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j0 -
