  • I think you can safely say you deserve the wine. Sounds like they had a fab time!

    I would really recommend the mask thing btw - it was so easy, the girls loved it AND the parents were suitably impressed :D They thought they'd made them at school, but I quickly set them straight :) I really hope they enjoyed it...sure they did. We've done the thank you cards, I took pics of all the girls, will print them at school tom and give them out when I collect Sophia - I think they'll like them as I'd love to see Sophia at parties when I wasn't around!

    Please forgive me now for drunken posts shortly appearing, halfway through 2nd glass and have work tomorrow - eeeek!

    Yes!! The shop in Barry does sell them - Instore - quite easy to find - they are yes/no dolls btw - my bessie mate lives in Penarth and I found out where the nearest store was. :) (actually so I could ask her to get some extra for others I've promised them to!!) Also you know that the next time I'm in cardiff visting her you and me are soooo meeting up for a cuppa and a chat!! :D

    Edit - that sounded like a complete threat - not intended lol!

    Sophia's birthday isn't til the 28th but I'm toasting her bday too :) Sorry as well - i know it wasn't your bday yesterday but got a bit confused - quite easily done!

    Well done Sea!! You have survived one of the most stress-inducing experiences I know. Enjoy the wine but don't drink too much now. I bet school is mad this week. I've just been to a carol concert at my kids' (primary) school, the teachers all seemed really manic and stressed out.

    Thanks hon - but I think it's too late for the not drinking too much. Think it will be an early night soonish for me actually!! at least school finishes tomorrow but I am coordinating the secret santa and have a lot of things to do so will need to be on top form for that I think!!

    Do you know - I don't think it's that bad having parties at my house - it's better than attending a party at a soft play centre - they send me to the edge!!
