OH picked ds up from nursery earlier and managed to get him home with a hat and a jacket that are not his :rolleyes: - how can OH NOT know what belongs to ds :think:

[*]HOT TODDY x 3 througout the day - to starve off the cold/sore throat I'm getting thanks to DD bring it home from school :mad:

Hey Nicki - brief OS answer to that one - Vit C, and lots of it. Take treble the RDA (A couple of Berrocca should do it:D).


Hope we're all happy:) I'm just amazed I can focus on the keys....................... I've been out..................

I love you all
