Up early this morning as I was bursting for the loo! (Sorry if TMI ) I was trying to hold out as I knew the zips would wake all the kids!

Anyway, I had a good sleep really! And I'm very pleased to have woken up with an "Amy Winehouse" hairdo, and only have my garden to scuttle across....not a field full of people!!!!!!

Ds and DD1 are still in the tent, but DD2 and I have come in to watch Cbeebies and eat toast!

Looks like it will be another nice day here.

Oh....Aufish and Blossoms oooh I'm glad the organised mum stuff is good! Thank you for letting me know

Morning Luda Glad you had a good night in the tent

We're just getting set for another day at the festival. Last one today, then we take everything down tomorrow. Dh took the kids on a steam train ride yesterday which leaves from a station just a few minutes from the festival so they had a great day. I was rushed off my feet, feel into bed completely exhausted last night and have woken up this morning feeling as though I haven't had enough sleep. I'm not sure how I'll get through today!

Better go and get sorted, we have to leave soon.

Enjoy your day everyone, see you later x

Morning Luda and shouldbe.

We were all up at 5.30 today

This is a good mission today. Living room needs a spruce up so will focus on fly this week.

Need to take DDs out into town later to give DH some space to work. Shops dont open until 10 though and it already feels like 3 in the afternoon here

grouchy Glad you had such a great time ! If i'd have been here I would have missed you (iykwim)

yadd ponders the fact that after going to the garden centre for new bedding plants they made a detour for the pub (well there is a beer festival) and perhaps should shut up before engaging in unseemly group hugs

awww i lurve you all

hic

off to do some gardening in the sun

ok perhaps i'll have a little sit down ....

Hellooooo! Welcome back all you wandering FLYers

yadda pmsl. You are barmy (but in a lovely, beer induced way)

grouchy the wedding sounds fab! Bet you are exhausted though. Lucky you going to the zoo on Wednesday

luda I was very confused by your first post.. couldn't work out what on earth you were wearing to wake your little ones by undoing zips going to the loo... forgot you were camping in the garden pmsl! Are you doing it again tonight?

Jas well done on recruiting more sink shiners The more the merrier!

Been at work today then went to the gym Horrified at how unfit I have become but plan to keep it up until I get back to my pre-wine fitness level... (damn that Shiraz - it has a LOT to answer for...)

No flying tonight as am knackered now. At work tomorrow but will be back with my huge list on Wednesday. Not sure how much I will get done as the joiner is (hopefully) coming then...

Have a lovely evening ladies and a fab day tomorrow

gibberish Yes...I'm in the tent again BRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Its not so warm tonight!! I'm taking an extra duvet!
The boy next door is camping out too...he is doing it in style it seems...he has an extention lead for something or other in his tent, I saw him go in with a bean bag too.
My friends DD is comming to sleep tomorrow night, and DS is staying with my friend and her youngest DD. I can see I may get roped into one last night tomorrow too!

Well kids are all getting into sleeping bags and things so I'd better get off
