THat is really good to hear that about your brother JM. He must feel so much better within himself too. The wedding sounds like loads of fun too.

Arte, we do have pineapple lumps over here. L and I like them but the others don't so they are our guilty pleasure. It is a huge slog to do a few days on your own. When I was pg with P, DH was working 13 day fortnights and the days themselves were 16 hours long - it was a big mine construction project so it was big $$ but it meant that for 8 months I was effectively parenting on my own because even when DH was here at night or on a day off, he was so exhausted that he just needed to rest or get work done around the farm.

I think we might be winning the mouse war LOL. I caught two mice in the office last night and there was another poisoned one on the kitchen floor today. Also the rat poison in the roof is working because we've not heard them up there for a good two days now. If it didn't start working I would have resorted to using phostoxin - think mustard gas for rodents it would mean we'd have to move out for a month though LOL.

MD, I saw the pineapple lump easter eggs - pascall are making them. There are a few in our local IGA. I haven't seen them anywhere else but there though.
