I didn't think she had named her kitty yet
Jasmine it is. Was still torn between this and Iris so DH made the decision. I made a little video of her swinging on the bannister earlier but have no idea how/if I can post it. It's on my phone so might have a little play tomorrow when I've transferred it to the PC.0 -

OK, TM:T You choose...
Cow Under the Bridge one person lies across the gap between two armchairs pulled slightly apart, face down and eyes such - they're the 'bridge'; the other person is the 'cow', and they have to try and crawl under the 'bridge' without it dropping on them.
Baby Jesus not a game as such, and definitely one for the tinies; you need a floor-length curtain, one person grabs the end and pulls it to make a hammock, the other person climbs in and is swayed back and forth while the first person sings softly "Aaaawww, Baby Jeeesus" to a made-up tune
Johnny Jelly do you know, I can't remember what we did for this one:o And neither can my sister - I've just rung and asked her. (That's an odd conversational opening - "Hi, how are you? By the way, do you remember Johnny Jelly") Just make up your own game for this one:D'It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.'

Remember, with Gmail you can add one or more dots . (e.g. anon@gmail, a.non@gmail a.n.on@gmail anywhere in the name part of the email address and it registers on systems as a unique email address, even though it will still come through to your main Gmail inbox (and if needs be, you can change settings through GMail online to be able to reply from that account if the need arises). Should any offers come up where you may need more than one email address, this can be quite useful without using Yopmail or setting up other multiple accounts elsewhere as you don't actually need to set up the email account

You can also set up one hotmail (now outlook.com) account that contains several different (I think at least 10) alias accounts. All these alias accounts have a different email address but come into a single account (meaning you just log in once and you can see all the emails from all the alias accounts) and you can send emails from any of the alias accounts too.

I was going to include 'organisation-!!!!!!-loving' in the description but it was before the watershed ... but it isn't now:)'It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.'

Johnny Jelly do you know, I can't remember what we did for this one:o And neither can my sister - I've just rung and asked her. (That's an odd conversational opening - "Hi, how are you? By the way, do you remember Johnny Jelly") Just make up your own game for this one:D
Jelly, I really do wonder what goes on in that head of yours sometimes:rotfl:
We used to play a game called squasha when we were kids. Loads of us used to bundle someone laying on the floor. The 1st person to yell out "squasha" (generally the poor !!!!!! on the bottom) was the loser.
Looking back it was very strange and probably explains a lot about life later on:rotfl:

I don't know if anyone has already answered this as I am miles behind and trying to catch up.
However, I accidentally bought a Fruit and Nut Toblerone a couple of days ago (I didn't notice there was one F&N mixed in with the three ordinary milk chocolate ones I picked up). The Fruit and Nut one came up as n/a to Waitrose
(£2.50 compared to Tosca) whereas all my chocolate ones compared to Waities 75p. :j

I don't think anyone had already answered this; if they have done, I'd missed it, so apologies for not thanking them earlier.'It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.'
