    Yes, Toni, me too. My hairdresser just says, "Hmmmmmm!" :lol:

    Well, I wont be letting my Hairdresser go, any time soon. He is doing well for himself though, having shows in London Manchester and various other places. And it does make life so so much easier him coming to me rather than having to go to him.

    Did someone mention pancakes. Yum yum, I just fancy a pancakes with maple syrup all over it. Would anyone like to join me. Have a good old pig out. :)

    Just finished my dinner so a cuppa would be lovely. Thanks for putting the kettle on Barbara.
    I've been the same. Next door neighbours were out last night but woke me up at 1am playing an electric organ. Well I say playing but they were just pressing the buttons which play a little bit of background music. That went on for half an hour. Took me a while to get back to sleep just to be woken up by them arguing. At least that only lasted a few minutes before a door was slammed. Wonder who ended up on the settee. :lol:

    Morning!

    I've just put 17 portions of homemade baby food into the freezer - get me 8) ! Maybe it could be a new sideline for the cafe?

    I'm attempting to help the year 2's cross the road this afternoon - wish me luck?!

    Other than that I think I'll attack the washing and keep the baby from rolling herself into trouble.

    What's on the menu for lunch? Xxx

    Late night for me, my son got the giggles from about 1 am until 3.30 am. He just can't seem to sleep nowadays and is forever fidgeting and talking and laughing.

    Karen you are very lucky to find a great hairdresser so hang onto him. Mine still needs doing but if I suggest anything different she disagrees with me!!!!!

    Toni how close are your daughter and step- daughters birthdays? I hope they have a lovely 18th party and you are wise not to have a party at home,

    Evening to you all, hope you've all had a good day.

    Barbara, I am pleased that you seem to be having a couple of good nights. Lets hope it keeps up.

    Elizabeth, good to see you, sorry that you're boy is keeping you up so late nowadays. You must be exhausted.

    Merry,, you have been busy with all the baby food. My youngest is 14 now, but I remember so well all the preparations.

    I had someone come round today, to help my eldest. She is going through a bad time at the mo, and it is looking promising I'm glad to say, we have fought for help for so long now. Maybe we will get the help we've been asking for now.

    Just been watching food and drink where they were talking about old-fashioned puddings so thought I'd call in here and see if there was any sticky toffee pudding but it looks like Barbara has eaten it all. I'll just have my hot chocolate then. :lol::lol::lol:
    Watching the penguins now. They are soooo funny.

    Hello to everyone else :) sorry I am late in - busy day today :roll:

    Elizabeth Daughter is 9th March and Stepdaughter 25th April 'do' is 29th March :D

    I'm glad someone has been to help your daughter Karen. Hope things start to improve.

    Today my 9 year old had to walk to school alone. I was really worrying so had to ring her school to check she arrived safely. Its a short journey with one manned zebra crossing but she was a little late and road looked empty.I'd have felt much better if there were more people about.

    I think I'll pop back to bed but worried I might not wake up again I'm so tired!

    coffee first and also wondering what to do for tea.
