I agree IK...Rory: well done DH on your renovated kitchen! Is that you standing there? Great to put a face to the name

Also IK; that IS very poor form playing phone games at your dad's... its a worse reflection on his character than on your dad and his apparent inability to "engage" your DP. I was always told by my parents: "only boring people get bored" when I moaned and groaned as a child... so I quickly learnt to get interested in adult conversation! it's one of the things I'll no doubt be saying to my children: "in my day... had to sit quietly... seen and not heard" etc etc LOL We are certainly raising a very different generation these days.

Been out gardening. Not going to bother trying to get Wade to nap today... he can go to bed early tonight instead... I tend to get more housework done after tea when verity and Wade are in bed anyhow.

Lunchtime... what to have? blew the budget so severely on the party that I said to DH that we would have to survive on party food for the rest of the week LOL Ok for him with his corporate lunches and catered function on Wednesday night... looks like toasted cheese sandwiches for me....

ETA: Oh sorry Simone! We're meeting this Friday at noon (?) at Melbourne Central at Borders (cafe). Is that ok Melbourne Junies?

ETA: I'm adding piccy's of my childhood to my photobucket site... there's one of me about to head off for my first day at school which illustrates my point about being brought up quite rigidly. Oh and there's also one of me feeding the dolphins at SeaWorld in about 1978! Neeny... you might be interested to see how much that's changed!!!
