It's easier to come on a thread and make a smart remark than to post something useful. Mind you, I don't think jamespir is even from NI to be able to make a helpful remark.

Have you any jobs need doing, grass cut, hedges etc? Keep the little blighters busy!!!
too right, whenever my parents dropped me off at my grandas, he made me dig out stones from his vegetable plot....got a £fiver and was as happy as sh#t.......nowadays the youngins couldn't be bothered doing hard work.
...also had to gather spuds with me ma at that age and was lucky if I got a few quid
Penwise, get them to do something around the house then treat them with something....they'll grow up thinking more of you and alot wiser too0 -
Again thanks to all who took the time to post constructive ideas. They have helped make my sisters stay a very pleasant one.0
