    Soappie thanks for the update on Toots - I was about to ask if you'd heard. Any news on when she can come home?

    Lakeland order done (and lovely free gift of some more silicon muffin cases).

    Going to set the WM and have an early night.

    No, none. I think she's just glad to be out of ICU and back on a normal ward!

    Yes, very! I'd never find them if they could get out on their own, especially the teeny ones!

    Froddy so glad the little furbabies are all settling into their homes happily. Do you have names for all of them? We thoroughly enjoyed "Inception" - I'm quite fascinated by the subject matter anyway, and we felt it was very well done.

    The 3 little baby girls don't have names yet - I am considering various options. The others are all named!

    Might have to go and see Inception - thanks for the comments.

    I'm off to bed to read my book so night all, sleep well xx

    Have just had a text from Toots after passing on various peoples love and best wishes. She had an operation on her feeding tube on Friday and has been in the high dependency unit since. She came back to the normal ward this afternoon. She says she's fine but sore and sends her love and best wishes to you all.
    Thanks for the update, soappie.
    Glad to hear that she is back on the normal ward.
