Only if one has pampas in the garden apparently

Evening quiche.

Thanks for the s this morning - gratefully received!

Am v glad to hear that illnesses have vanished.

Wanda - great to hear the new routine is going well. We aim to sit down as a family for meals, on the 4 days F isn't at nursery. It does sometimes mean tea is a little earlier than I would like, but I remember family mealtimes growing up fondly.

Am at £700 on food! It is amazing how little spends here and there add up quite dramatically. Dh found this out before, and learnt his lesson - luckily he's much better now.

Pidj here's hoping for more toilet success.

Um um um. I can't remember what else was said!

Today F got the dog treats out, stationed herself on her little garden chair and spent a happy 10 minutes ordering the dog "doooooow" and "sut" and sharing the treats liberally

I have just made my first loom bracelet

I really hope you get a better night pig . Lovely to hear of piglet/pup bonding sessions :)

OBEM time!

Congratulations vq

I get prize twat award.

It was a gorg day here, so when
O went to sleep I put on a vest top, my gardening jeans and sun creamed up.

Just now my lower back felt v hit and I thought " gosh it must be all that bending is so sore I wonder if it looks red?"

Yep. It looked red.

And the realisation crept over me. I had omitted to suncreAm that bit of my back, not realising my top would ride up with all the bending. it is really bad.

I have smothered it in aloe jelly hoping I can save the situation.

Watching OBEM and feeling broody for the first time in my life

Also feeling very very restless and a bit manic for some reason. Is very strange and I'm not quite sure what it's all about...

all these new skills

We could have our own little commune

Imagine finding a stairgate to fit those stairs!

Omg VQ am properly in love with that house....and at that price is incredible!

Can I just point out that the Scottish system is 'offers over' so that might go for a lot lot more than that. I moved up from Lancashire and found house prices were pretty similar. We bought a house a lot smaller than our old one. Obviously compared to the South East it is a lot cheaper, but also the town it is in is thought to be a bit of a 'toilet'. But yes that house is lovely. I have already worked out how we could divide the accommodation Pass

That house is amazing! I can't believe how much house there is for the money.

Ha, cross post vq

Ahahahahahahaha! DH and I have been checking that one out as well! It would be perfect for our commune.

vq is right though, move that house 10 miles west and you would be looking at much more. Although, vq, you might be interested to know that apparently houses are typically going for the offers over price or less. Actually going over is currently unusual

WTF! I always refrain from your property drooling. But I caved. But wtf! Our 2up2down is of similar value sigh. The down side of living in London.

gt DH used to rent a two bed flat in hackney. It sold recently for £600,000. It was a nice enough flat but

The other way to look at it is that my two bed semi is worth buttons so it is relatively the same.

Love that house.
