how can she find time to do all she does and still read mumsnet.

Love her (and Charlotte). Wish we didn't have to wait for Sandie's appeal sulk. Also Sara's outcome is yet to come in Belfast too.

I’m dreading the BFF outcome; can’t help but suspect that the length of time is because the Judge is trying herself in knots trying to make her decision appear legally correct.
