    Sammy is it one you have to find the button in the middle on each side and it folds up? You need about 6 pairs of hands for them

    Yes its that kind of travel cot - I can manage the other one she has but this one is new and seems a bit stiff....not budging! Very frustrating.

    6. Tidy chloes room up
    7. Shopping

    Yes you have to wiggle it and push the button and eventually both sides will collapse together...there is a knack but sometimes kicking the dam thing is far more pleasureable!

    Take the cleaning stuff with you when you go to shower and you can do both of those things together!

    Morning all

    Gemz - Sorry to hear about your accident - hope you're feeling better soon. What's your dress like?

    Buffy - Good luck with the decorating - what are you doing?

    Sal - Hope you're feeling better soon, you seem to have been run down for weeks now, might be worth a trip to the Dr's?

    Bookie - Hello :wave:

    Sammy - Is C excited about starting school?

    Tis trying to rain here and very gloomy....still warm though.

    No real plans for today, was hoping to do some sewing but my eldest cat has decided my sewing desk is his bed for the day and he's all snoring away....I shall reclaim it when he gets up for lunch. (yes I know that sounds a bit lame but he's very old and gets very grumpy if I wake him up - much like Mr Pooky really :D)

    Going to shove some chicken and fruit in the SC with some Mr T's value curry sauce (8p a tin) for dinner tonight.....yums.

    :( That's rubblish for you, Sal, ear ache is the worst. I used to get loads when I was little before I had an operation on tonsils, etc. My Mum tells me that every year we went on a foreign holiday (where I'd be in swimming each day) she would go to the doctor beforehand and he would just prescribe an anti-biotic for her to take with us for me, because I would get an ear infection EVERY YEAR! Being only 5, I didn't help the matter by still jumping around in the pool like a mad thing!! So - don't go swimming today!!!! :p
