    It is awful that people have to live like this. What really gets to me is that it is not even temporary, it seems there is no end in sight to this recession. :(

    I found out she has a halogen oven when she wants to do hot meals...

    Hope I am not putting my foot in it(as some your children may wera them) but we have a couple of neighbours children(I would guess they are approx 13-14 years old)They are riding on those metal scooters but they are wearing what I can only call a baby suit but for an older person.

    It's all in one with a hood. One is in white and one is in purple. I would not have thought that anyone of their age would be interested in them.

    Perhaps they are all the rage these days...I know we cannot move for those scooters...the little ones where they try to the tricks you usually see them do on BMX bikes or skateboards...

    I'm probably out of touch...

    pops I'm getting a onesie for my birthday of my sister. Purely for sitting knitting and watching the tv downstairs... if I dare creep into bed with it on I've been warned with the word divorce :rotfl:

    DH is away with work. He's staying in a hotel and judging by his phone call 30 mins ago he could do with a nice B&B and outside catering unit - especially one that could rustle him up a gourmet chip butty ;):p
