We were supposed to be going on a canal boat and having a picnic but now we're going to soft play instead. Looking forward my wedding and honeymoon so much that's keeping me sane!

I'm very cold today, would love to be wrapped up in my duvet

Morning everyone.

Yes shoshe please can I have some or send DD to you .

Have another cm comming this morning to play so thats a couple of hours taken care of. Just another few dry days would have been nice before the rain started again!

LMG - Not long to go then now. I hope you have a lovely time and don't forget we need to see photos.

Back to school today, tomorrow and Monday. This Summer has whizzed by really quickly. Slightly clouded by DH's redundancy. Still, looks like I will have my new childminding assistant registered soon (DH).

Horrid night down here in the southeast too, but weather is half reasonable today. Going to run them outside! Have a lovely day (only 4 more sleeps to school starting!)

My own DDs all went back to school today, left only with baby mindee who's sleeeping at the moment. All my other mindees left over the six weeks holiday

Sorry henni- hopefully things will improve. I am only now 3/4s full (only 2 spaces ha!) but it took from January.

Morning everyone my eldest has his first day at his new special school, got picked up in a taxi. Very sad but I am so thrilled for him, last year was a nightmare. Today will be a tricky day, an overactive school age child who is anxious about school next week. About a 5 second attention span at the moment. And it's rubbish weather! Wish me luck
