    Welcome back Gigi Missed you heaps!

    I've got the lazies. My laundry is overflowing, including the nappy bucket I need a magical washing fairy to come in and do it all for me. I best pull finger or I'll run out of nappies with all of this rain

    Got Maz and the crew calling in tomorrow and I don't want her to think I'm totally feral. She knows I'm a slack tart though so I best find the balance between slack and feral!

    I've nearly finished the alpaca shorties. Were supposed to be longies but I don't have enough wool and the buggers at the alpaca farm have sold out of that colour when I went back to get more. Rude that is! Will post a pic on my blog when I'm done

    ali - which ones are you bidding on, they're ending soon and I don't want to outbid you, but I want to grab one myself.

    gigi - welcome back. I hope everything went well during yours & bilby's stay.

    suse - I hope because he was awake all night, he won't be sleeping all day, and I won't get to play with him I think he was only about 9 weeks old when I met you guys.

    raven - oh I know that feeling! That was my laundry the other day. I did so much washing that it filled up the one outside (which is quite big) and the line in the patio (which is quite big as well). Had to stop washing as I had nowhere to put it all. Now I have to put it all away

    Wow girls you move fast in here....lol.

    At the moment I just spray my bucket out with a mix of Eucalyptus Oil and water. Works ok so far but it's only been in action 3 months!

    We had troubles with disposable liners bunching too, I wonder.....if used over a micro liner would that help them grip a little? Or just defeat the purpose of a disposable liner? If you use boosters at all you could try wrapping the liner around the booster maybe, like wings??

    bec - that's how I'm cleaning my bucket as well. But like you, have only been using MCN's for a couple of months, so who knows if it will keep doing the trick in the future. But we get heaps of sun up here, so that part isn't a problem.

    fuschia is a gorgeous colour! Dunno about dyeing it though

    Well I finally get to see how the IB fits on Emily today. I've been slack since I bought it and haven't had my washing up to date, until yesterday. I have soooo many pink nappies, but they're all so cute.
