    Thanks Sparky! I feel bad for warthogs now as I may have just given them a bad press. *disclaimer*, I don't actually know if Warthogs snore, and if they are loud or noisy if they do :rotfl:.

    I'm so tired. Can't be bothered with Beavers, just want to go to bed. I've arranged for a Police Officer to come and talk to the boys tonight though so maybe I can just nap in the corner?! No?

    3 more after tonight Beanie, and the last one will be party night :D.

    Actually it was good fun tonight. The boys thoroughly enjoyed the Police Officer's visit. He let them sit in the car with the blues and twos on etc. so funny how tv has shaped their idea of 'cops' though! Xx

    Mr SA's snoring is so loud I'm surprised next door haven't banged on the wall! What with the snoring and jerking we both have to put up with Lucky no wonder we don't get a decent night's sleep. I might not have kids to add to the mix but my cats and dog are nearly as bad! Yawn!

    Crikey Lucky poor you. Everyone seems to have this winter sickness bug. Hope everyone else has avoided it!

    I remember sitting in my sisters living room on the sofa with her quite late one night after her partner had gone to bed (10 years back crikey!) and the sofa was literally shaking everytime he snored. We couldn't hear the tv. I asked how she dealt with it, and she said (and still does it to this day) she sleeps with rubber earplugs in and a position in which she has the pillow clamped to either ear!! I would have murdered him by now!

    Hugs, and yay to only 3 more weeks of Beavers!! :D:D

    SA, you have my sympathies if Mr SA is a snorer too! DH used to be bad pre accident when he'd been drinking, but as he's teetotal now it's not normally too bad. I still sleep with my fingers in my ears though Lilt as I have 'issues'. I hate hearing people breathe! Or eat! There's a proper word for it that I can't remember (aside from weirdo!!).

    DH and I went to spin class again this morning even though I really didn't want to as it took me 4 days to recover after last week!! It wasn't as bad today though and i'm only in slight discomfort tonight :rotfl:.

    My cousin had a baby boy today :j. Can't wait for squidgy cuddles.

    Gained 4lbs at chub club :(. It's so unfair that I have to work so hard to get the weight off, yet it goes on so easily. Damn you sweet mince pies!

    Wow. Seriously though, he should really get checked out. Sleep Apnoea is a really dangerous thing. He shouldn't just leave it.

    Lucky sorry you had such a rough night, but well done for still getting up and doing some exercise.

    Love this pic granny, definitely makes me think of lucky!

    Well done MIL on treating you to a holiday, seems like she is acknowledging the full extent of the situation.

    Hope the bugs are over and done with in your household until after Xmas now - I was off work a couple of weeks ago with a virus and a few others have it now, winter sickness is certainly doing the rounds

    Granny I love that picture!! Thank you.

    Chev, needs must! I need to get fit one way or another. I had another rubbish night last night too, this time with DS2 who started coughing at 4am and literally didn't stop :(. It's a horrible dry, tickly cough, and lots of the kids have it at school. Those who don't have the cough have the sickness bug :(. They should hang a red cross on the door!

    Called the Head Injury Unit today as I still haven't heard from them since they were (allegedly) going to discuss next steps and how DH 'slipped through the net' at a meeting last Wednesday. The girl I spoke to didn't know anything about it, and the Consultant's secretary is on holiday this week :mad:. Apparently I'll get a call back on Monday. Getting rather annoyed now!!
