Johanne - aaahhhh! i didn't realise they were two pad. mine is a four pad and is great as stops me resorting to painkillers.
i've just spent 45 minutes scraping off the old sealant from around the bath. it was really yuck as it had hardboard stuck to it. dh did the bathroom about five years ago and had never finished it off. cleaning the bathroom today it looked awful so i scrapped it of with a knife!! it looks fab. xx

dd has just come home saying they're allowed to take their nintendo ds's to school tomorrow for 'choosing' time. my question is - will the school replace it if it gets stolen? i've told her i don't want her to take it and if she chooses to take it she replaces it. she knows what that means as it took her 18 months to save up to buy it in the first place. some times teachers don't think!!
