    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

    Those are fine if they are for INDOOR! I would never be seen in one of them outside my house (unless it's an emergency of course :D )

    Funnily enough, I want one too Fuddle, but the husband isn't very fond of them :rotfl:

    pops was totally spot on. It was his tentative description that had me really plus the vision of teenagers on their skateboards, and the knowing that you can count the millage between where pops is and where I am on your fingers *blush at living in county durham!

    My DD (22) LOVES her onesies.. she even has a monkey suit one with hood with ears and a tail. LOL :D NOT a look for a girl in my opinion. I'm sure I've posted on here too that she's struggled with getting up in the night for a wee too. More than once she's been half asleep and not realised that one of the sleeves was down the loo :rotfl: She likes knitting in hers too....

    I suppose I COULD install bunk beds...how many do you think I'd get down the walls Mrs C? Three sets? Four? You'll have to form an orderly queue for the shower though! :p

    I'm sure your DH can come up with a nifty bit of furniture - perhaps they could all hang from the ceiling like bats :D. Just give them plenty of cake, they'll be no problem!

    I'll do the evening meal, chip baps all round, and if they are good they can have some ketchup on them :rotfl:

    That's so funny Kate, the arm thing :eek:

    I'm getting my children onesies for their xmas eve hampers, but they are jimjams, I wouldn't dream of letting them go outside in them!
    And I'd love to come to Pembrokeshire some time. I'm afraid I don't do camping since a tent collapsed on me at the Grand Canyon, so B & B it is!

    You'll have to come lodge here;)

    What you are doing with your onesie sounds sounds sensible to me...

    When My Father had to go away on a traing course in Derby, he was bored and wanted to get bacl to us, his family, the rest of guys were doing what guys did, he was happy in his room reading a book. My tastes have become much simpler over the years and the portion sizes too.

    With you mentioning scrambled eggs that's what I am having later with some ham, fried tomatoes and maybe some garlic bread...
