Morning all!

Rubbish day, weather wise. Just sharing crumpets with mindee, then off to get soaked on the way to school. I did have something to tell you, but it can't have been that exciting, because I've forgotten already!

Ow BM! That must really hurt! I wonder what caused that to happen. Perhaps its the apple juice fermenting. (Which reminds me, I've got 5 gallons of wine under the stairs that needs bottling!

Morning. Ive just had a right fright. I was reaching into the fridge to get the milk to make porridge for breakky, and a cork from a bottle of wine flew out catching me on my thumb. On the bit where it joins my hand. It's agony. The bottle was half apricot brandy and half pressed apple juice that was made up by my SIL for christmas. He's a bar manager and made hot cocktails one evening. I loved this one, called Baked Apples so he made me a bottle up.

It's swollen and bruised, but I can move it so nothing's broken. Oh I did cry!

Got one sleeping mindy til 11.30 when I collect another.

Off to a Den building course this afternoon, then check up at the dentist at 5pm when they've both gone.

Owwwwww!!

We opened late, where is everyone? Mmm crumpets are so yum. Mo, what's the word on your hols?

Mucho busy day around here which is great because my daughter and I caught the cold my mindee had last week and I am crabby about it. But we aren't allowed to moan are we that we take in sick children. but I digress. Meeting at sons school and dragging mindee with me (yes yes parents know and are happy) then home for lunch, then out for a toddler group that runs once a month, then off to school for pm mindee and ds and the pancakes! Busy day 'round here and I am looking forward to it. Please let the day fly by!
