Thanks valaber - I have been using the kitchen (a bit) but our lounge/kitchen is now open plan and I cant just shut the door any more and of course the other problem is now that my mother-in-law lives about 10 mins from me whereas before she lived a good hour. Trouble is she keeps popping round and if she saw a sink full of dishes she'd be wondering how on earth her little soldier could have married such a slovenly lazebag so I have to keep it top notch (only kidding she's a sweetie at the moment!)

Yes Lisa you are probably right - my tongue's all worn out from all the long chats we have been having (Sal that includes you too!) Honestly girls when you get these two on the blower there's nothing doing for at least an hour or two - so nice to have lovely friends that I can talk to for that amount of time!

No Lisa I dont have anything to wear for CG - can feel a Bluewater trip coming on.........
