    Oh no Lucky :(

    I remember the "joys" of my kids being sick all over their bedding.

    I wonder if Mr L being so angry was part of the build up to the partial seizure?

    Take care xx

    Can you maybe pop the heating on and put the duvet either on it or on an airer right next to it?
    Hope it is dry in time for bed.

    I have done beanie. It’s been outside most of the day where it’s been windy but not really warm enough to dry. Then I hung it over the banister and it’s mainly the edges that are damp now. It’s now draped over the airer and on the radiator at the same time :rotfl:. Will keep turning it round so all edges get to be one with the radiator :D. It’s times like these I see them benefit of having a spare duvet, but the cost always puts me off.

    He’s pretty perfect at picking them Hairy! Always has been!!!

    I really think it was SA. Just hope that we avoid a full TC seizure and the bad mood dissipates now Xx

  • The duvet didn’t dry in time so DH had the spare single duvet on his side of the bed and I had the empty duvet cover folded over like a double sheet :rotfl:. T’was freezing! It’s definitely dry for tonight though.

    Anyway, I won £25 on the lottery last night :j and 25p on T0pc@shback! We’ve also been invited for a free meal tomorrow night, as my neighbour’s sister (follow that!) is the manager of a new restaurant opening on Monday, and they are doing a trial run for friends and family tomorrow :D. Just have to pay for drinks :T.

    Took the boys to see the new Thor movie today, using the last of my cinema vouchers for scanning my shopping. Thoroughly enjoyed it, not least the parts where he stripped to the waist :p. Bought the drinks and snacks in the cheap shop first, so not a NSD but not too baf.

    Sounds like you are nailing half term! :beer:

  • Don’t know about nailing it Mrs H, but I’m just about surviving it!

    DH was all confuddled last night, and did lots of things ‘wrong’ including getting in to bed without switching the lights off etc. He then had a major myoclonic jerk in his sleep and whacked me one :eek:.
