    Right, quick news from me.

    I'm fine
    BB is fine
    Chickens are growing BIIIIIIGGGG and eating me out of house and home
    Kids fine
    DS has acquired two little ginger female kittens which Mother (i.e. moi) spent 5 hours last saturday driving him around to collect. They are adorable. Trouble is he acquired them whilst DiL was away on holiday with her sister (though she knows he was getting them!). DiL is back tomorrow so depending on her reaction to two rather than the one they talked about, I may be acquiring one of the little darlings myself....

    I actually managed to bottom out the kitchen today for the first time in about 3 months and it's looking grand.

    Just have the rest of the house to do now ....
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    Well I don't know about the secrets of my longevity but I now know the reason I'm not incarcerated at Her Majesty's Pleasure is simply because I can't be bothered to drive over there (points) and show you the error of your ways;)

    Well all I can say is if I had legs like those below at 90 I wouldn't mind!

    Bahah it's a baby thing! I'd love to be able to fart out loud whenever I wanted and not care :o Should I really be admitting that...

    And now I fancy a cheesy hedgehog...not that I've ever eaten a non cheesy hedgehog but the addition of cheese to anything is good in my book
    So, there are these boys,
    They kinda stole my heart,
    They call me Mummy

    Go for it.. farting loudly in public is definitely VERY satisfying and most liberaing...

    I don't like cheese.. and pickled onions on your hedgepig is absolutely vile!

    Morning all

    Been up since silly o'clock but have done some paperwork and emptied the the DW

    Valli Happy Birthday, have a great day x

    Football and reffing this morning for boys but I'll be dropping only as it is cold here.

    Plan to do more in the family room today and hope DH will get around to putting up the shower room blind and taking down the bathroom one for a wash.
