    Oh my, there is a poor woman halfway up the street I can hear her baby screaming and I'm inside! Must be quite a small one as it seems to be a lay flat pram rather than a buggy :(

    I have that joy to look forward to when Mr LW gets in from work. I can't wait!!:(

    I've done the kitchen surfaces and dusted as best I can in the lounge; also had a bit of a rearrange of the kitchen cupboards - I'm moving the plastic boxes out into a crate in the spare room, because the cupboards were far too crowded, and the boxes were difficult to get to when I want them. It's not a perfect solution, but will do for now, til I can come up with a better idea (I'm working on it);)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
