Morning, well done on the Topcashback wins Alfie. Please spend it wisely,lol. I won 10p today so your doing well. It's a sunny day here again but chilly out. Hoping to cut the grass later when the ground warms a little. Sounds like you are going to have a busy easter Alfie. I haven't heard of croup for years either so maybe it's coming back.Glad your GD is feeling better now it must have been frightning for all concerned.
Off to make a coffee now. Hope you all have a good weekend.0 -
Alfie sorry about your GD and groop great she is in the mend in time for Easter. Well done on the 20p. The day it started I found three eggs and thought soppy until I realised you had to find all the same colour!
Here was a typical April day lots of showers and fleeting sunshine and cold. Feels even colder this morning.
We went to the park on Friday but didn’t go out yesterday. DD2 and GD went to local shops and found some balloons so it was indoor tennis and other games. Years ago I bought some small bats from Early Learning and they have bouncy insides but they don’t seem to sell them anymore. They also got the wooden train track out. Years ago I bought an enormous amount of track and trains in an enormous plastic container for only £10 from eBay. It was my best bargain buy.
Think you are having better weather than us Sheils makes a change.
Have a good Sunday all.0 -
Morning, the train set sounds a good buy leanfun. I expect it would cost a lot more now and toys like that are great for putting away as you never know when they come in handy. We have a sunny day here but there is a wind,great for getting the washing dry. I have put 2 lots out and it's blowing well. I have joined Instagram,don't know what i am doing yet but sure i will get use to it in time,lol. Hope you all have a good sunday.0

Not been as sunny today and a tad cooler but ok.
Think DS3 had croup when he was little Alfie. Had to put him in a steamy bathroom if I remember right. Can't remember what else we had to do. It was scary though.
Train track sounds good leanfun. None of mine were really into trains- suppose because we don't have a railway near. We did have Thomas the Tank Engine things though as watched the TV series.
Good luck with Instagram indie. I don't like it for comps very much as so many things have to be done on the mobile. Will see if I can find you on it.

Hope you all have a good day.0

:hello: Hiya
Beautiful day nowbut really chilly earlier.
Brrrr!
Actually managed to do washing, drying & the ironing
yesterday (all on the same day)! :eek: It's amazing how
organised I suddenly become when family are due to
visit!
Well, little granddaughter is fine now after her particularly
nasty bout of croup but unfortunately my daughter has now
caught it! Thankfully (most) adults only have a sore throat
& niggly cough for a couple of days with the croup virus. So
apart from sore throat/slight cough, daughter is not showing
any other symptoms, much to my relief.
All the family are coming down for Easter & son's girlfriend
has been secretly making plans with us today to arrange a
surprise birthday meal for him up in Covent Garden. His
birthday is actually 4th May so we're all giving him his cards,
pressies etc this Easter weekend, for him to take back up to
London & open on the day. Little does he know we'll be up
there with him to join in the celebrations! :j :T _party_
I promise to spend my Topcashback win wisely indie!
:rotfl::rotfl: Plus, I've only gone & won 10p from Quidco -
yay - I'm on a roll! This time next year rodders! :j :rotfl:
Sounds as if you're having a fun time with GKs leanfun. We
play the same balloon game & also have lots of wooden
trains/tracks for the little ones to play with. You certainly got
a bargain from ebay because it's very expensive to buy new!
Five year old is now really into Playmobil - amazing to think
my kids loved it when they were her age - brilliant range of
toys! :T
Enjoy your day with nephew indie, love it when youngsters
enjoy gardening. Eldest GD loves potting up & watching/
waiting for seeds to grow. For the last couple of years she
has given me a beautiful Sunflower in a pot for my
patio. :grinheart
Must get on, busy afternoon ahead - comping, gardening,
cooking stuff to put in freezer (ready for Easter) etc. etc.
The list goes on ......
Have a lovely afternoon/evening all, take care.
