What fantastic news!! How have things been with apeman next door recently? Will the new house have appropriate adaptations?

sparklymieow · 29/06/2005 14:13

Well, now you can put a calendar on the fridge door and cross off the days until you are out of there! Each time there is an incident with apeman, you can just think "only x more days until we're gone from all this".

DD1's room will be pinky purple with a princess bed, our bedroom will be cream with one deep plum wall (will have to do that wall myself) DS 's will be blue, i think, and DD2 will have whatever, she isn't that girly so she can choose whatever, and I will have the whole of the downstairs cream
