DD5 and DD2 respectively lol
We obviously share impeccable taste. I have always loved the name Claudia. We originally thought we were having one of each with the twins so it was going to be Henry and Claudia.
When my sister was expecting, we joked about having Duncan for a boy or Maddison for a girl.
Her surname is driver so it would have been Mad Driver or Duncan Driver :rotfl::rotfl:Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j0 -
With a heavy heart I have cut down all the diseased raspberries, just to dig out the roots now and my lovely tayberry had to go too.
BBQ for dinner so I'll light that and then carry on outside for 15 minutes or so whilst it gets going. Washing in first I thinkThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
