    Thanks pippi. Will have to pop to mr T's and get some. While shopping yesterday in one shop (can't remember which one) they were selling boxes to keep you washing powder in :eek: so you spend over £6 to buy washing powder and then they want you to spend another £3-£4 to buy a colourful box to keep it in *mad*

    I don't think so. I have plenty of plastic tubs (like the one in your blog pippi) in the attic. Surely time spend sorting and tidying one of one boxes to get an empty one is worth the cost of of buying one

    Very wet here today I have got soaked twice! DS was very snuggley warm under his rain cover and blankets though
