I don't suppose there are many of them around LG, but thanks for offering to look. :-) :-) :-)

Dont' they build up a load of toys over time. I am sure my two have enough to stock a toy shop, but mother never allows anything to be left out!! You wouldn't know there were children in the house if you didn't actually see them. Mind you, they have just come back off holiday and been out for haircuts and to see their nana today, so I don't suppose the little one has had time to make a mess! :-D

Our house is always a tip when they have been around, but we would not have it any other way. :-D :-D

No, I don't blame you, LG. I wish my dil thought the same way, but she treats the house like a doll's house! :-D

I have just let Duffy out for his evening constitutional and am finishing my cuppa, so will be off to bed shortly.

Sleep well and I'll be around tomorrow. <3 <3

Morning all .

Glad to hear that Maz' curtains are now fixed; you should be less 'enthusiastic' when entertaining Frog. You're no spring chickens, you know ;-) :-D

Ah, bless. That little girl is quite deep but caring. It does suggest that there might be something going on in the family though.....perhaps her elder sister and pre-teen angst??

For some reason, PC thinks our living area is much tidier than that of her friends. Got no idea where she got that, unless our clutter is spread over a wider area? Just don't open a cupboard!!!
Mother-in-law is v houseproud. Eldest was the 1st grandchild, who she used to make sit on a sheet in the middle of the floor to eat a biscuit. Strange she didn't bother when sister-in-law's children got to the same stage!

We were given good advice by a freind when we first set up home together. Visitors come to see us, not a spotless and tidy house....not that it stops us rushing around like loons in advance of a pre-planned visit. :-) :-)

Evening everyone.

Good luck with your search, Maz. I hope you find something suitable. My next venture is to buy a new garden shed. Really interesting, NOT :-But it will be a good excuse to have a clear out when the old one goes as I am hoping to down size a little.

I've had a lazy day today, just venturing out to the garden centre to look for a shrub for my neighbour's birthday.

Off to start dinner. Bye for now!! :-) :-)

If you want to do anything outside, this is the day to do it; Its supposed to be wet the rest of the week. And yes, we have had an overnight frost as well.

Morning all. Trying to turn over a new leaf and drag myself away from the computer by 10am. Do you think it will work???
