    Oh mumto5 I hope everything works out with him x

    Why does my mum call me during working hours to tell me she's not going to work, and after asking if I'm busy, ignores my reply and proceeds to tell me (in gruesome detail) all about her latest menopausal (or not) symptoms? Do I need to know (graphically) why she can't leave the house? Is it possible that she can say "I could use x,y and z if your passing a shop, I'm indisposed" and I would have entirely got the picture...

    Ah well. Kidlets collected, fed carp and played with, now plonked in front of DVD.

    :D keep getting notifications popping up of bids on DS old bed and Thomas stuff :T
