    Serena - what can I say - awful news and yes, when you have one the same age it makes it somehow more horrible IYSWIM.

    have done Living room and removed fluff and webs from back of PC and all around. Still not found the catnip mouse so have bought jingle balls now (cheaper and 4 in pack) much amused, in Morrisons, by man telling self service machine that he HAD put the stuff in the bag :rotfl: - got text while in there - may well be on the A1 tomorrow:D
    DD didn't cry at Toy Story 3 but tells me I will...but I will have someone with me to hug and cuddle me so that's ok;)

    just cleaned the shower room and was buffing it up while standing in the shower with a microfibre cloth, and it was looking lovely and shiny( all plastic and stainless steel), when I accidentally knocked the bloomin shower on!!!! I have dried myself off and the cloth is outside drying so I can do it all again!!!! :(
    Aww, I'm really sorry, but I couldn't help :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Never mind; at least it was only water.:o
