Morning all

Yes ludaloo that 7 seat bike does go. The one who stears in facing forwards, so everyone else pedals madly and trusts the driver! It was great fun, all sat in a cirlce.

The sun is shining here but I have nothing planned . We have another day out tomorrow, so I'm hoping to get a bit of housework done, persuade dp to do some building work, change the beds, and let the children entertain themselves

Have a good day everyone.

Welcome back Hazelnut - good to see you around again

Aww they are all cute and fluffy

I would like fluffy pets, but dp is allergic to them all, so we have fish and the hamster.

Dds neck is better

Ds is "not ready" for us to look at the splinter again yet today...it looks very red and sore under the plaster though )

Dh is off to Ikea in a mo to get a HUGE bookcase/storage unit thingy to put in the spare room (hope to move junk off bed/floor/other surfaces onto new shelves asap this afternoon ) I dream of getting this room all clean and tidy but it's a tip. My theory is that if only we could get it looking really good (all decent furniture rather than all the odds and sods that don't sit together well) we'd feel more inclined to keep it looking tidy...
To achieve the new look fully we'd really need a new bed and bedside storage too but can't afford that at the moment.

it's raining here today Jas, have a good day

shouldbe · 12/08/2007 08:41

ludaloo · 12/08/2007 08:50

My DD2 spent literally hours on here, making her own fairies. You can print them out once you have created them too.

ludaloo · 12/08/2007 09:04

shouldbe · 12/08/2007 09:19

BREAKING NEWS
The splinter is out!

Thank heavens. Ds screamed and screamed, I had to hold him down while dh battled to get the splinter out. At one point ds screamed at me to "Let my foot go so I can kick daddy away!" Poor boy. At least it's all over now.

Great pic of the kids Luda
and of the cat lol!
Dd will love that website, we may need it today if the weather stays grey and damp

ludaloo · 12/08/2007 09:22

YAY !!!!!! Thank goodness its out

LOL at him wanting his foot back to kick daddy!

ludaloo · 12/08/2007 09:25

We are watching Shrek.......I'm waiting for the water to heat up then I'm going to hop in the bath

shouldbe · 12/08/2007 09:29

I'm waiting for dh to take dd to Ikea so I can get on with sorting out the spare room....
Just seen a link to the most hideous wedding on another thread in chat - it was a teenage traveller wedding - just shows how far some people will go....awful!

Jas · 12/08/2007 09:41

Yay! for the splinter removal

Lovely pics ludaloo

Morning all.
Shouldbe glad the splinter is out.
Luda Cute quinea pigs.
EHM Took the tent down yesterday. I knew rain was forecast for today and wanted to pack it away while it was clean and dry! It did rain earlier. Sunny at the moment.

I have to tidy the front room today and put some washing away. i have already started packing bits for holiday. otherwise DS's would wear their best clothes this week! And i would have to re-wash and iron then.

ludaloo · 12/08/2007 10:11

Lol...shouldbe I found it too. The bride looks so unhappy! All that squeezing her into the car...she has to lie on the floor!

Its truly awful! LOL!

tortoise · 12/08/2007 12:16
