    Bobbadog, her coat was just a cheap one from George - it's cute though isn't it! Have a good time at the Doctor Who exhibition. I really want to take Ryan to it, but it's just too far away and too expensive. He went to it when it was in Manchester though, and LOVED it.

    Awww, I didn't realise you lived in Scarborough Mrs S, you could have come and had an ice cream on the beach with us! :) Hope your graduation ceremony is good, congratulations. :T

    Maz/Bunny, yup, gritty nappies galore! :eek:

    BB - Young?? *whispers* You do know I'm the one on the right, yes? :p I think it's just a lucky trick of the light. :o But thanks, and did I mention I LOVE you....lol!

    Mrs S - Where are you graduating? I know OU do some graduation ceremonies at Leeds Uni, Leeds Met, the Town Hall and the Civic Hall (depending on which is available!)

    Sar - any news on the heavy metal thing (?deadworld) I'm so clueless, but know that Wayne saw it advertised and said he'd like to go. I said nothing's stopping you apart from money!!! If he saves half for it, I'll put the other half towards it so my money's safe as he'll never save up.

    Snaggles - Wish I could go to the seaside! I was hoping to go this weekend (whitby, filey, scarborough or Brid) but Wayne's likely to be working so that's another weekend where I'll have to do some housework.

    We've had the gable wall repointed and after some particularly heavy rain there were loads of damp patches on the gable wall. A friend (former builder) suggested that in the worst case scenario we're looking at a new damp course & chemical spray, then replace all the internal plaster on that wall (chemical seepage) and air flow membrane layer. When I asked how much - his only advice was not cheap, not quick and definitely messy! So this explains why the paper has bubbled from the wall and the paint has flaked from the wall! SIL works for a building company and she's going to ask their advice but we don't think it will be cheap!!!
