    I've just popped in, been catching up on DDs netbook not as easy as on laptop. :(

    I just want to say before I go had the pleasure of spending couple of hours with Truffle Hunter this morning. Sat out in the sunshine and guess who forgot her sunglasses and sunscreen. I now have a rather red nose. :o

    TH's DS was such a darling, took a couple of those filled pencil cases from a while back Cars and Toy Story, thank goodness the pens still worked and loved the fact he called the ruler a tape measure. ;)

    TH was so kind and gave me couple of books from O2 priority moments as both her and her OH are on O2 and I'm not lucky enough to have a smart phone. :T Big thanks TH. :)

    Have been ploughing through some unpacking after DD2s return today, lots of glitched food has returned uneaten. :eek:

    Very tired Tinyshoes here, after a very busy day. So goodnight all, hoping for more sunshine tomorrow and will remember the sunscreen this time, I'm sure my itchy nose will remind me. ;)
