Good morning everyone. Cold day, really orangey red sky today, and we're in London all day including this evening (got tickets to see Cirque Du Soleil! at the RAH). Just hope we can actually get home!! Should be fine most of the way if it snows, but we live off a road that is off a road that is off a road, and we have NEVER seen any gritters round here, although they have now planted a grit bin on the corner!

Enjoy CdS - would love to see this! I saw them when the kids were babes in Auckland - fantastic! Can't wait to hear all about it.

I like the idea of this!!:):)

I absolutely adore this, but only a man (or a woman that has never had kids) would write this. It would be wonderful if we could avoid having the babies go back in!

Whoops - Good Morning All!!

Was struggling to get out of my pit this morning when I heard the radio presenter say it was minus 11 in Norfolk! Warm hugs to all of you, Norfolk or otherwise, where it is really cold. I don't know how you get out of bed!!

We try to go to see it every year, at least when they bring out new ones! You can tell the people that have never seen it before, they are the ones with their mouths permanently agog! We have all the DVDs too, but they are not the same, the only advantage is that there is only one place to look!

I'm looking up tickets now!!! My babes are now 13 and 16 - and it's not easy to catch them with their mouths open - but this would so definitely do it!

that's scary . be careful when it happened to us neighbours knocked on the door to say we had flames coming out of the chimney . the fire brigade said it could reignite on its own and recommended we got the chimney swept straight h t away . our own fault Wed been burning unweathered wood we' d collected on walks cos couldn't afford coal.

Morning savvy shoppers! My parents had a chimney fire last year, and I feel I must advise everyone who has a real fire to make sure that if you're burning wood that it is very, very dry. You can buy moisture monitor things to be sure. I think they said the moisture in the wood causes a layer of tar to build on the chimney lining, which is very flammable. The fire was roaring throughout the chimney for 5 hours, the poor fire men were here most of the day and it was very hard work for them. Lots of damage and mess caused by them having to attack it from the roof in the end. :eek:

The one thing they advised was that if you ever think your chimney has started with a fire, throw a small cup of water on the fire and hopefully the steam will put the worst of it out. Oh and also get your fire professionally swept at least once a year, ideally twice.

On another note, I haven't been 'glitch' shopping in what feels like months! Am getting withdrawal symptoms... I'm going to have a proper read through the thread now to get reacquainted with any news : )
