they wouldn't have to drive far to find some.

Sounds like you are going to get plenty!!

We need plenty of snowballs in the CPs compound to keep them amused over the Christmas holidays!! That should keep you busy for a while. We'll send over LG's catapult for you to fire them across.

While you are making them, I'm off to bed to wrap up all snuggly and warm lol!!

snowball fights perfect!

Who needs to be warm HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA *cough, cough*

Good night YG

morning
All went very well Joseph performed with a curtain over his shoulder as long as he did not wear a hat .Younger ones were cute The older ones were giggly ,but performed well with style .
count down now three days left .not too cold here yet although we are promised snow today .Hope Ava is better soon

Morning my little frozen petunias. Congratulate me. I have just finished writing my cards. That's two things crossed off the list.

Any news on the little one. I do hope LG managed to have some rest. Must be difficult coping with the littlest one, and still have a million things to do.

Pleased to see Joseph played his part. Kid's performances always bring a tear to my eye. They always seem to do things so right and make parents so proud.

Thank goodness today so far so good. She had a relapse last night after being discharged home early evening rushed in again at 3.30 this morning. Just awaiting doctors report after his rounds . We are all having a really good time of it OH really poorly similar to Ava but not so bad yet. all the rest of us Emily included have stinking colds and to add insult to injury ***** Washing machine died last night.

LG hope things are going better we are all rooting for you
YG YG there is a new firestation being built just along the road from me even nearer than the old one lol
I have psted my cards but i have yet to do the neighbours and work out how to do E-cards lol

Oh my God, you're having a really bad time of it LG. How is little Ave today, has she improved?

The washer breaking down is bad at any time of year but this near to Christmas is a nightmare. If you can't get it fixed - you'll be pushing it to get a new one before the holidays.

I think you need a little bit of fairy dust sprinkling on you. Haven't we got a residential fairy at the lodge?

Excuse me the residential fairy dressed in a fairy dress hob nail boots deer stalker hat tenna undergarments accompanied by a slightly soggy shaven pawed striped sabre tooth tiger called Spot...

does not waste fairy dust on washing machines..

Said fairy has already distributed copious quantities of fairy dust on the little tackers. It is very good quality fairy dust and should do the trick.

Re the washing machine. Do you not have a family member who could take washing to laundromat. (Poms do have laundromats, don't they). And organise someone to come take a look at your machine. Delegate, delegate!! Demand action. Come on you've enough to do without worrying about washing. Don't wait for someone to offer to help. Ask for help.

And Maz how long do you think it will be before you have a visit from YG. Your estimate starting from the day the new fire station opens!!!!!

Just a very quick update as Emily is due for a feed and I cannot keep piggy waiting LOL Ava is slightly improved but will be staying in until she is a lot more stable. Thanks for the good wishes. As for washer it is out on the lawn in the morning LOL I shall throw it there !!!! We are going to buy one at the weekend as our local superstores keep some in for immediate collection. Will take some laundry over to Hailey's tomorrow and wash it in hers. An way I am away now but will keep you posted. It's not easy typing one handed with a grumpy baby on other arm.

And I thought of putting my OH into the catapult and flinging him over there. Trouble is he wouldn't sit still while I tied him in. He may be elderly but he sure moves quickly when he has to.

Well he is good at washing and also fixing things.

You are certainly having it rough at the moment LG. Ava is in the best place and she will be ok.

Maz, I'm on my way. Never mind that it's not built yet!! Can you pm your address to me so I know where I'm going!!!!

hello glad things are a little easier LG ,
Aunty YG is already on her way lol she can come to the open day lol

How long before it's finished Maz! I'm getting sooooooooooo excited lol!!

Calm down. You need to wait until the sun comes out and they are all outside, stripped off to the waist , polishing their fire trucks and rolling up their hoses.

morning construction is well under way YG hard to tell
hope va is better and also that all the other events are over too its time sweet pea went into exile

OK .What have you lot done with my warm weather. Today it managed to crawl up to 21 degrees. It rained last night and this morning. It is freezing.

Hi Rita. Snow and ice are banned from this thread. As of now. Just be careful or we'll have the lady with the squiggles, Pauline, chucking snowballs at us all.

Duck!! Whooooooooshhh.............YG!! Why are you on the broomstick. What is the strange helmet on your head. Is that an icecream container??

Oh no my dear. Land the broomstick immediately. You can not fly that contraption over the Maz and join the fire brigade. No, not even as a mascot. And what on earth are you wearing. Well I must admit it does look cute but you are really going to feeeze. What's in the backpack??

Update. Just heard Ava had a very good night and is smiling this morning. Hailey never thought she would hear herself say it but she is so pleased Ava just threw a toddler tantrum. Little Emily has got a bit of a cough now so I am not taking any chances and getting her checked a bit later. No temperature just a very runny nose.

Very latest update Physio has just been and said her chest is clearing really well.Ava has just thrown another tantrum while I was speaking to her mum and has just turned everything out of Mummy's bag. Oh joy I am so happy I want to cry.

Well do just that. What a relief it must be for you. I am so pleased. It's always a good sign when kids recover their natural exuberance.

Go sit down put your feet up and relax for a while, well as much as you can with a small runny nose to be wiped.

Latest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 80% chance she will be home later. Can't sit with my feet up I am dancing for joy LOL
