    Hi,

    I've had the most fantastic holiday (have a look on facebook) unfortunately DS3 was poorly and dosed up to the gills with calpol and Ibuprofen when we flew out. DD2 had the raging temp and sore throat in the middle of the holiday and DS2 had it at the closing stages. DS1 celebrated his 16th birthday on the day after we returned with the said lurgy. So far DD1 has escaped the lurgy as has DH and myself.

    Can't believe my DS1 is 16! He's now exactly the same height as DH. I need to buy him "business attire" for 6th form but want to leave it til the last minute as he is growing faster than my passion flower shrub in the garden.

    I've made a start on the list as you can see. Please keep me on task this week......
