    Oooh.. Delain.. you big blue meany!!! Mine always eat dry cereal! .. lol... We still have 2 teeth... but the top 2 are movig down in the gum now I think.. 1 can be seen clearly.

    I loathe tidy houses.. I can't think of anything more uncomfortable apart from having your socks go to sleep in your boots!! Mine is a skip.. toys strewn everywhere, random shoes and items of cloting about the place.. we are clean.. under the mess.. mostly...

    The outlaws however.. amuse me..

    sis cleans constantly but only superficially.. between the spindles on the stairs in an inch of fluff and dust bunnies, there are papers and clutter everywhere.. but the floor is clean that you walk on!

    His mother is tidy.. not a thing out of place.. but there are mice :eek: and dog hair inches thick and about 3 dogs worth between the ccushions on the sofa. Behind the loo is gross! the bath, I scrub before putting Squeak in it..

    All makes me feel better though.

    My mother is a pig.. her house is vile.. I told her she best start sorting it now because if she thinks I am dealing with that when she croaks she can think again!

    Morning everyone. I really hate housework. Like you would not believe. I keep the house pretty tidy and hoovered, but when it comes to proper cleaning like mopping, cleaning bathrooms, doing skirtings, etc. I hate it and do it once a month. There's just the three of us, and we mostly use our en-suite so the main bathroom is clean if anyone calls in, but I'd do anything rather than clean. I've told DH that we are getting a cleaner when I go back to work. Even if it's just once a month for a big clean, we can do the day to day stuff.

    Did anyone see Fast Food Baby on BBC3 last night? It's shocking what people feed their children!

    Hello All:wave: I've missed you:o:D
    I've been lurking for the past 6 months but I'm now back in the land of the living instead the land of the manically busy:o ML turned out to be hectic and I ended up working self employed when LO was around 12weeks old, can't stand not doing anything!

    Anyhoo, good to see familiar faces and like most of you I'm broody too:D So huge CONGRATS to those who have managed to get themselves up the duff for the umpteenth time;):p:D:rotfl:
