    I think its called displacement activity. Or perhaps procrastination. Or possibly avoiding housework?

    Nathan brought home a biscuit he made for his Mummy tonight:D Was just 2 digestives stuck together with melted chocolate then more chocolate on top with sprinkles but it would have been rude not to eat it right?:o

    Beanie - It is to be a Team Leader for the repairs customer service team (for the local authority). It is for 18 hours a week, so if I got it I would do it in conjunction with my current job and it is only for 6 months, so if I find I don't like it, I haven't lost anything. It will be giving me experience in managing a team. I have managed individuals before but not a whole team!

    I think it would depend on how many other toddlers had sneezed in/on it, licked it, stuck their fingers in it or dropped it on the floor. :D

    Claire - well done on the trousers. I'm feeling the worse for not being able to be consistent withthe exercise. Home DVDs are great when I need them but nothing beats pushing weights in the gym:cool:
