    VJSmum- thank you for your insight into the uni application earlier, DD was in right state but I have explained to her that you work for Uni so you know what you are talking about and its really calmed her - she hasnt eaten properly in days with worry, she actually ate a meal this evening, so a huge huge thank you.

    Kidcat I have a new litterbox iv just bought so that's a fab idea I will do that he has a hot wash pressure washer in his van maybe ill make him stand outside and ill hot wash him first . I've told him not to touch his phone or ipad until he's home and clean he has got antibacterial hand gel but I don't think that's enough with raw sewridge floating about :eek:

    I don't know how he does it from the man who can't pick up dog poo or clean up child sick men :eek:

    I stuck DH's work boots in a bucket of diluted Jeyes fluid when he trod in sewerage when doing a site visit. Very strong smelling disinfectant but better than the other, yak, poor bloke... poor jem!

    How is puppy by the way?

    jem - thats what I used when we had an issue a couple of years ago, I also used similar during the foot and mouth issue, I had a litter tray outside the door, and something similar for the pram too, wasnt taking any chances!!:rotfl::rotfl:

    I think hospitals should have the same system permanently to disinfect shoes as you walk in and out, would save a whole host of bugs I am sure. Of course we could make everyone take their shoes off outside instead :rotfl::rotfl:

    Aww! To post pics you need to use a photo host site and then post the linky here, places like Flickr, photobucket and image shack will do it. :)

    Kidcat I had the same thing, lost a baby at 7 months and nearly died. My husband wouldn't even take a day off work and was no help whatsoever. I still rememeber it as one of the worst times in my life. Just had to keep on going though but it was bad. And previously I had lost one at 5 months and one at 4months. I went on to have my youngest though :)
