    :rotfl::rotfl:nice one granny! Except he fell off so quickly he didn't have a chance to grab onto anything, straight off onto the floor :rotfl:

    Ali can you wait until Sunday? I'll do you a recipe and take photos for you, but I'm working all day tomorrow and it will be very busy.

    I've had enormous difficulty getting online this evening, very frustrating....

    DS3 picked up the grocery bill which made me a bit tearful again :o He also taken my interview suit [I decided it was musty as it's been hanging in the wardrobe for so long] to the dry cleaners for me and will bring it back in time for Thursday. I haven't had confirmation about the interview yet, which is a little worrying. I will chase it up on Monday.
