Hello all,
Oh yes hatty do join us! It would be lovely to meet your girls.
pmk What a night. I hope things improve. Re the dream feed, we're dropping it now as I discovered that it didn't prevent DD from waking up a few hours later for more.
veggie Your veg patch sounds lovely. I hope you are prepared for the pests though! We have a massive slug problem in our garden and can destroy a whole crop of little sprouting seedlings in one evening. A tip from Blue Peter is to cut a drinks bottle in half and use it as a sort of cloche (I nearly put coche then, that would certainly be another more violent way to control pests!). Beer traps are effective but rather gross to clean. I hate the idea of killing slugs and once collected them and put them in the Wheelie bin - rehoming to the tip. Within 15 mins they had formed a queue back to my precious bean seedlings.
trace Can you not start P on a cup soon? I think I read somewhere they can manage from 4 months. That would give you a break every now and again.
Arti How relaxing reading BR in the hot tub! Hope you had a good time.
ladyT It is odd what they laugh at. DD gurgling, babbling and squealing at the arm bit of her mobile this morning - the mobile itself wasn't there .
Oh no, I've burnt our tea!!!!! I've scooped the central bit out of the plan and will tell DH it is meant to have a flame grilled taste. I'll add more chilli, that should help I'd best open a few windows...
