    Evening all. I did the dailies today, the paid stuff, and sorted out my toiletries, make up and nail polishes. That's it. Just waiting for tea to cook.
    Have a great evening everyone.

    This, is a baptism without the baptism. Choose depending on how close you are to parents. This is why we've not had them for our children...

    TBH, it won't be a getting drunk gig;) this is a baby boy born to a blended family and was long awaited;) - just had no clue if a gift would be expected. Thanks. Personally, given my beliefs, I'm happier with this than the 'other' thing IYSWIM.
