    I feel like doing something madly exciting. My Curmudge is that I can't think of anything.

    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Well sounds like a good idea but I don't have a Barry B3.  :#

    It sounds like you'd have more fun with a Freda to be honest.
    I'd take anything over the evening of fun I've just had. It's all best forgotten. Especially the bit with the enormous flying poo :|

    Didn't get to bed until 12:30, then I was up at 3am to help get Calpol into the little one. This would be fine if one of the smoke alarms had not then decided it urgently needed a new battery at 6:30 and had to let out a 100db chirp every 23 seconds until it got one. No chance of getting any meaningful sleep now and a definite chance of being very unpopular if I fire up the over-enthusiastic coffee machine to have a drink. :|

    Hope you have now drunk several coffees.

    That took me back, wild edges! So grateful over the years for waterproof mattress protectors, and enough money to keep a supply of clean sheets and pyjamas on hand.

    It's raining, which you'd think would be good since we already have a hose pipe ban.

    However, it's just a dribble and comes with a very noisy "son et lumière" show so I can't go out to play and I really wanted to set up a canopy on the now exposed barn beams so I can move my nursery there out of direct sun all day.

    Is it a boy thing @wild edges?   Never had any of that bother with Possum.   Not even a tummy bug till she was about 10.
