    toots, brilliant news about your ramp. There will be no holding you back now!
    It is freezing here, we are expecting snow tonight. DH is a lot better now and has the old 4wd car back on the road so I shouldn't be as stuck as I was last year.

    serena hugs and prayers for you and yours.

    pigpen What a lovely picture of you all. I hope you get some answers and help from HV tomorrow. And I hope Freja is a bit more settled tomorrow so you can sort that huge order and maybe get five minutes to yourself.

    I'm back and will be doing first 3 days in 1 day tomorrow! Our boiler went off on Thursday morning and was only just fixed last night so I'd been camped at my mum's or in the front room (with gas fire) all weekend - way too cold for flying! I am amazed that some people don't have their heating on. I could see my breath in some parts of the house it got so cold!

    Hope everyone else is ok x

    I got this MP3 for my Goddaughters birthday 2GB, Clip, no fancy case etc as it is a reconditioned but for the price the best I could find..

    http://www.trustedgoods.com/Sandisk-2GB-Clip-p/sdmx11r-002gk_mr.htm?gclid=CI3z2taiuKUCFQhO4QodOlU_YA

    I too have a Sansa one and have had it for years and touch wood it has never had a hiccup.. and unlike a lot of the cheaper ones this does not need batteries..

    They also have some good books for babies on The Book People ones with black and white images which apparently babies can see easier.. and a fabby range for all ages.

    P.S. You all look so sweet in that pic and so happy (awww)
