    LB, she removed her FB (or removed all MSE people from MSE? I think the former though) a few months back I think :(

    Things my FIL does which are very small but annoy me:

    brushes his teeth while wandering around the house with a towel draped over his shoulders, making sure he at least sticks his head in to see us so that we are aware of what he is doing

    comes to the door of our small kitchen and hovers there while I give Elijah a meal, saying nothing, occasionally leaping forward to 'contribute' (puts the lid on the humus while my back is turned... picks up a wet wipe that fell on the floor...)

    when reading books with Elijah, won't just read them, but stops and spells out every key noun (not a bad thing in lots of ways but a) we will decide if we want to teach our child!, and b) not all the time - sometimes he would just like to read a book please)

    I had a £150 food shop order arrive yesterday, he is babysitting tonight while we go out for a meal, but he keeps repeating "I bought a tin of beans yesterday, I'll be fine!"

    this morning the first thing he did after getting up was to find me to tell me that he had managed to discover which terminal his flight takes off from 4 days from now

    ETA when shown a video of E looking at some chickens in a coop, responds by asking "has he had a tetanus shot?" and telling us how people can catch tetanus from chicken pecks :p

    I am grumpy, hopefully going out for a meal will cheer me and make me a bit more charitable :)

    Bruno all those things would annoy me too.

    And hello Mel, we miss you!!

    My baby is driving me slowly mad. She's constantly scratching and hitting me. I know she feels rotten because her gums are sore and she has the snottees but I am so annoyed with the constant pain and lack of sleep.

    Oop, sorry, inbox has space now btw.

    Thanks Caz :) and for the info.
    Baby preparations are... needing to be a lot more real than they are yet :p we have some lists and that's it so far. Maybe Mothercare World next weekend for some bits and bobs, and need to place some online orders!
