    So what is the NP consensus? If ones partner becomes an aunt / uncle is one also an uncle / aunt?

    Yes. Most definitely.

    Had to disappear, sudden death in the family to communicate round the circle. If I didn't have a job I'd have been over near SSue's in 2 days.... but I'm working.

    Sorry to hear that Pastures. Hope you're OK.

    Glad your job's going so well, anyway. :)

    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.     :)

    I made soup for parent and I but cannot be bothered to eat it. Lost my appetite a bit tonight.

    I do quite crave apple cider vinegar but cannot reach it (for reasons best known to dh it's in the drinks cabinet which is blocked off be stacked up furniture ATM. )

    Would you like me to bottle some up for you when we meet again? :) we just made a gallon of it. It's cloudy stuff, totally organic etc etc.

    edit: i meant cider vinegar. not soup!!

    registry office, taxi driver and clerk. job done.

    Snap - probably my finest money saving moment. I only did marriage once kids were on the way. Wasn't ready before then but I want what is best for them and I think being married is. I am not at all religious but it wasmorethe doing something formal.

    Herts is rubbish for docklands, done it for various projects and hated all the possible routes. Cross rail may make a difference?

    Lydia if the inquest is in this direction - or you just need to be near Londond for a day or too then you and DKs are very welcome here, DDs would be very pleased to see your DD again.

    As pastures said re Chewies house - who knows what you might be doing, LLs have no right of entry without prior warning. (Before DKs) DW and I have been known to have the day off and just ignore the doorbell and all parties would have been very surprised if someone had let themselves in ;)
    I think....
