Nic - hope you find something nice in Sydney. When will you be doing the move? Hopefully we might get a chance to meet up before you leave, would be great to meet in person. I could go one of the pina coladas right now, its still so hot outside!

Dee - have a great time shopping solo! I am sure Lachlan will settle once the xmas period is over, it is such a hectic time of year. You have a lovley xmas too, enjoy spending it with your family.

Bath - icecream cake sounds delicious! Just been talking to my GF in Brisbane and she has made these little xmas puddings by breaking up plum pudding, soaking it in frangelico, rolling into balls then topping with white chocolate and glace cherry - yummy! I too remember Mork and Mindy - NANOO, NANOO!!!! Sounds like you need a strong martini tonight. The hot weather seems to bring out kids feral side! Chelsea got home from swimming at IL place and was so cranky and tired.

Simone - what did you end up doing tonight. Wish you could have joined me at all night shopping tomorrow. Train set table sounds cool.

IK - great news about your greenstone! How did you guys cope with the heat? Can't wait to see Oscar scaling the laundry trough!

Rory - sounds like you have a hectic few days! Being in Knoxfield is only 10 mins from me - probably seems like miles for you but I can get to Gladstone Park (aunty lives there) in 40 mins using citilink. You could have popped in for a visit! Have plenty of vegies on standby - just in case LOL!!!!

DH has picked up all laybys and Chelsea swings (its going to take ages for us to put it together!!). Just got to hide them all. Spent 3 hours at hairdressers today, it was bliss and got the best head massage but came out $150 lighter!! It's my one indulgence. Going to have breakfast with GF's tomorrow morning at 10am and swapping our xmas presents. DH is having some drinks with work colleagues tomorrow afternoon, then I am heading to shops to finish some shopping. Then it might all be done.

Night all
