    Probably 10-11/11-12 I think Lucky maybe a little bigger. He's hard because he's tall but has no waist at all!

    Thank you HH, I'm trying to resist putting on so I don't run out of data :o Trying to write down the things bothering me but it just doesn't make sense which annoys me :o

    I think you deserve the odd off day, no one could accuse you of slacking that's for sure. Hope you feel back to normal soon xx

    I must be very thick skinned Wannabe, it didn't sound rude at all to me :rotfl: I bet people insult me all the time and I don't realise it :cool:

    Sometimes you just need to sit and re-charge your batteries. You always seem to be doing something or trying to sort something out so even a couple of hours doing nothing must seem strange to you. Enjoy it while you can. xx

    I got the ironing done and have rejigged the meal plan around to make it work better with things we have going on in the week.

    Bleached the bathroom and kitchen so tomorrow I can try and keep the smalls entertained rather than being on the sofa feeling sad :o

    Going to have a cuppa and read I think now
