    JEDI. Cool.


    That's not crazy early. Anything starting with a 5 is fair game. DS or Puppylove are normally up by 5.30.

    I'll be getting up - I hope! - at 4.45 on mon. To get to work to lead a trip to France... No night buses go my route, so lovely colleague is picking me up at the pub just10 mins away. It might have just taken last orders by then...

    Urgh! The rule is it has to start with a 6 in this house (although DS3 often comes into bed for a snug at 5.45-5.50)

    Christmas Day - the rule is a strict 'no waking the parents until 7am' - and now we have big ones the waking of parents is to be accompanied with mugs of tea :) All 4 then pile into/ onto our bed with stockings and open all stocking gifts :)

    So today I plan to get a flu jab, take DD to have her riding trophies engraved before they go back, do the washing and have a lovely evening watching strictly with the fire on and the smalls munching popcorn. Also obligatory weighing and cuddling of the Three Little Pigs. Runty pig put on 50g last week so pleased with her.

    How is Brian Conley only 56? How?

    Flu jab made me sleep 3 hours ( that's my excuse...)

    I know, bless.

    Bit worried about middle pig, she has a lump on her nose. Its probably a scab, they take forever to heal.
