    Thanks, family joke that's where we keep the giraffe. We call it the beach hut and use it as a room in summer to escape to.
    It's fabulous!:o
    And I could use somewhere to escape to right now, too - Mr LW just called to tell me the blokes are coming to measure the kitchen at 19:00 this evening. AAARRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
    I shall retreat to the back garden, on the pretext of keeping the Hairy Hooligans out of the way.:D

    Oh no pigpen, those pesky moggies!

    Just been to the gym for a swim and now I'm debating mowing the lawn/staying under the umbrella on a deck chair, before cooking dinner. Hmmmm I wonder which option will win...
