                Piggers she looks absolutely stunning, and is going to be a heart breaker if not already :D That dress really suited her :)

                And the rest of the piglets are adorable - Moomin and Tiddles looks so cute :) You must be really proud of them all :D

                Poor Ghana, I feel much sadder for them than I did England going out.

                Piggers, I love the look on Tiddles face, she is looking so admiringly at DD1.

                Almost done for the day. Just need to wash the 2 pans which are soaking and put the WM on a clean cycle.

                Morning all,

                Toots that's ever so strange about the flowers and CD. Have you played the cd all the way through?

                Pigpen your DD is gorgeous, i'm glad she had a good time and the rest of the tribe are lovely too.

                I fell asleep on the sofa last night and woke up at 6am.:cool: OH wants to go and get the car at 8am. I was looking forward to a lie in as Ds2 has had two late nights in a row. :( I don't mind now i'm actually up but if i'd have had to drag myself from bed on a Saturday morning with Ds2 asleep i wouldn't have been happy. ;)

                The bedrooms really need cleaning, Ds2's is such a mess i struggled to get to the bed to read him a story last night.:eek: The problem is it's so tiny the mess soon builds up.

                I've got a list around here somewhere.
