    However eventful your day I can probably top it.

    We were hoping for a quiet week but it's not been - more of that later if I ever catch up.

    Well its only 10.45, OH is waiting for eldest sons train to get in, its late inevitably.
    OH had a Dr app this morning, still on sick leave. Eldest son taking him up to the hospital later for yet another blood test, possibly an x ray, now they are ruling our gout.
    On the plus side my buzz kit arrived, I thought they were not coming until the end of the month? Anyway at least we have eldest son here tp do a taste test on.
    And even better we finally got a letter from youngest son :T He sent a beautiful card and a note - so at least we know he is still alive and well and busy :j

    What else - well youngest son dumped most of his stuff in the boys bedroom before he left so I finally cracked this week, could not stand the awful mess anymore and I started to sort it out. I think he has done the minimal ammount of laundry for months and months so all of his stuff I am washing, drying and folding up into the big poly boxes we had when eldest son was away - it really stinks, stale, damp etc.
    There is a lot of the boys wardrobe that is communal - eldest son quite regularly comes home at the weekend, takes whatever is clean and dry wether its his or his brothers including underwear!
    Leaving what he wants washing if course :(
    Youngest son has also developed an addiction to buying the thin lightweight cycling tops, I think I've washed at least a dozen now.

    So far I've done 17 loads :eek:

    Glad you got a letter from your son, it makes all the difference when you hear from them :) As for taking/using his brothers underwear, it must be a "lad thing" as my 3DS's always share underwear too :rotfl:

    Yes, when I think about it I don't think we even had one card or letter nothing whilst eldest son was away - 3 years serving abroad, we got random calls in which he said ring me back white he was in Cyprus and we had very good skype in Kabul. But it's me that has been writing letters, e bluesy, emails and sending parcels every week ..
    Deep sigh.
    Youngest sons card now on the mantel piece forever.

    I didn't have brothers so I am glad to have it confirmed underwear swapping is normal with brothers :rotfl: I know it used to send Youngest son crackers - he was living at home at the time. He would be furious and say J had gone back to Cyrus and taken all of his underwear with him :eek:

    Is that because you saw them as part of a stash pic...I think the poster buys them with previous APG's and the suchlike rather than them actually glitching....
