    Thanks for the warning Vicky, I think we've only just recovered from the Young Farmers last weekend. :eek:

    Great news Tru, celebrity Piggies in our midst. Give Reggie and his brothers a kiss from me...not forgetting Baz either....How's Beans doing with all the excitement?

    Hi everyone,

    Thank you Shez (the only one who noticed/bothered) for keeping your fingers crossed - it worked!!! After half term i have 2 new children starting before and after school, i met them this afternoon for a couple of minutes (they are coming around properly next week) and they seem really nice children, so i will look forward to them being here. Of course, the extra money really will be a god send now, im down to less than the bare bones now, so hopefully will be able to get myself out of it once they start!!!

    Nothing much else happening today, LO was very good, hes trying to move now, but gets a bit frustrated and instead of crawling he does a find of skydiver impression, which is funny, but i do feel for him!!

    Have my sister and her family coming down for the day tomorrow, my BIL is going to mend my fence for me so that will be a good job out of the way, will be able to let the LOs play on the grass again without the worry of them roling down the hill into stinging nettles and trees!

    Hope everyone has a lovely evening,
    Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Beans is unimpressed, I think :D

    We were putting them in separate cages when we left the house or were in bed, the vet said there's a slight chance he'll attack the babies when they're born. But they were together when the babies arrived and everything was fine, he was even helping to clean them. When I put them together today, he ignored the babies and tried to mate with Baz :D She was NOT impressed and told him off, so he ate some greens instead lol. It's hilarious watching the babies follow him around though :D They're back in separate cages for the night and all is peaceful :D

    I'm sorry to Cat for not mentioning it either. It's not because I'm not bothered/noticed it's because I usually post very early or very late on the thread and my mind is a blank. :rolleyes: I often do think of you all and various problems that you have ;) that come up but I don't necessary write well wishes individually.

    Off to get a photo done this morning so I better go and make myself presentable. :D Great news Candygirl & hope the hospice gets sorted next week Mrs Mix. Talk later. Have a good nights sleep. Byeeeeeeeeeeee
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)
