    Oh Wow, amazing news, I am so very happy for you.:T Blended families are wonderful, aren't they? The really lovely thing that I find is as the generations progress, the children have no idea who is real and who is step IYSWIM, they just know that they have 3 sets of grandparents and love us all equally. Well think on Lady, if you think that we are going to start treating you with deference you have another think coming:rotfl:

    Great news, GG Robin!! What a tonic..! Something to really look forward to.

    Not much to report today, except have finally sorted out the PPI claim and reduced my paperwork mountain.

    CD got a parcel of chewy treats in the post - a gift from an admirer!

    Haven't really seen DGD yet as she was asleep when she arrived, so DS just popped her straight into bed. Expect she'll be up early (so I'd better get to sleep! ;)).

    You were up late last night Robin, hope it was nothing worrying keeping you awake.

    Hope you have a good day with DGD today
