    He asked for the door for a birthday present - we duly coughed up! If his box room gets messy I can shut the door now.....

    They broke the door and pulled the hinges out of the frame with the piles of crap behind it which is why I won't get a new one until it is clean.. but DS3 finishes for summer today so we can do some flinging... I REALLY don't feel they need the little tykes pirate ship and fisherprice castle when they are 14 and 17!!!
