    So do I MatyMoo!! She wants to invite him for tea, which may even be tomorrow!! She demanded to look at all his FB pictures again and has been very nosey tonight, sweet that she's interested but a bit odd having questions fired at me when previously she's just accepted gentleman friends as being like anyone else who pops over to the house, okay she was much younger, but this is all very funny and odd!

    I can't remember how I fudged the marriage question, but to the hugs and kisses I said yes, sometimes (which made her wiggle her eyebrows at me, lol) and I reminded her that she is my favourite and best ever person to give hugs and kisses :)

    MORNING UPDATE - When she got up, we had a discussion about whether Daddy (puke) gives me kisses and cuddles, no, he gives them to you darling (think I got out of that one nicely!!) and then she went downstairs and demanded a nice card so she could invite MrA over for tea - he didn't get any kisses in the card, but got a whopping 8 cuddles (circles). I think she's crackers, but am very happy that she's taking the lead. At this rate, she'll be booking a vicar and we'll just have to go along with her demands, lol! Bossy little madam, no idea where she gets it from...........*chuckle*

    KK - handled well - ! xxx

    I'm off in to fray today - DD a rehearsal in town

    I've eggs to deliver, children to pick up and a few post office things to do in town. Also council to go to. Got a text about a bit of a chat about that 4 month job I mentioned. Doing that over the weekend.

    Hoping to head down to England next week for a few days. :)

    Got a few things on ebay - watching them - no luck yet - but you never know - combination of funky flower candles and random larger seed collections which I don't want to split up - early days and all that.

    Hope tea goes well later KK :) neverwraking meeting the inlaws - or the children!

    Oh I didn't get a hot chocolate - next time ta cheery.

    Meeting with the evil one after tea - deep joy.

    Yep, what Cheery and beanie said - and what Pippi said to KK too :)

    Pippi, I think the interest on here shows that you're on the right track with the seeds thing - I'm a bit surprised I'm the only one who's specifically mentioned the plantlets, but maybe thats because the enthusiasts on here are a bit more set up and ready to go than me.

    Anyway, hope it goes well today - remember how wonderful you are when you have the meeting with the evil one :beer:
