Can I have the bacon roll and the champagne as well? Sounds like a perfect combination.

Apart from choosing a new name, I've been slathering Germolene on insect bites - how lovely is that? My new name doesn't make one think of Germolene and insect bites! It's the time of year for these and I'm covered in large itchy bumps...
Gracesmum You look lovely in pink, and your dds 
jeni and Maniac have a wonderful cruise and be disgraceful while you still can!! 
Jeni I do admire a woman who quaffs champagne at 7 in the morning - it makes the bacon roll sound so mundane
Lovely pics Gracesmum I see from your info that we must have been working in tandem producing our 3 daughters at the same time!
Today spring has most definitely arrived in Oz. We schlepped round Taronga Zoo, the 8 year old, the 6 year old, the 4 year old, the 6 week old and Gally, in temperatures of 29+ degrees. It was straight down to the beach afterwards for a paddle in the rock pool for me and a swim in it for the GC's. Oh how I will miss them - and the heat 
Lovely photos gracesmum gorgeous outfit
to all of you that are off on hols/visiting friends/family...have a brill time..
gracesmum lovely photos and your pink outfit is gorgeous. Who is the distinguished looking man with walking stick and fabulous hat?
Have a wonderful time, jeni and maniac!
jeni & maniac enjoy your cruise, we are all looking forward to hearing all the antics you both get up to
Have a wonderful cruise jeni and maniac and BEHAVE!!! Remember you have a tradition to uphold. (I didn't say "behave well")
Today I have added a couple of wedding pics - I can and will bore for Britain about this wedding!!!
Oh no, not that 
Or worse - the start of sensibility...
I can't believe, we don't leave until 4am and I'm 3/4 packed!
Normally I haven't even started to think about it until about 2hrs before leaving!
What has come over me? I'm worried. Is this the start of senility?
gracesmum - well done 
Hope gracesdad is feeling better.
Grace obviously though you'd be lonely! At least she wants to go out, at the moment our dog thinks that it's ok to wee and poo anywhere so long as you've gone through a door first - any door - to the dining room, lounge, hall! Luckily he can't manage the stairs any more!!
Home again after granny marathon with the little boys. OMG I had forgotten how full on tinies can be and especially 2!! W, the 2 and a bit-year old was fantastic and never got round to a full-on strop (unlike my own children) and T (9 months) very sweet but so active and strong, I am sure he will be walking within the next 6 weeks. It was just juggling being in the right place at the right time, keeping them apart when GS1 wanted to do a floor puzzle or make a rail layout (so, during T's nap) , having meals ready when needed, again T goes from "Oh, might be peckish" to full-on screaming famine in about 45 seconds. Bath time and bedtime were carnage especially when DG wasn't well and I had to "cope" (ha) on my own but all was sweetness and light once I got down to the stories and T's bedtime bottle. Then it was wine o'clock in a big way!!
In your own home with your own babies, you are geared to it aren't you? Otherwise how on earth would I have coped with our own 3 ? I love them unconditionally and my heart lifts at every toothy grin or "Gwanny.....?" but once I had had a text saying they had landed yesterday morning, I found I was counting the minutes!
And to go to bed last night without a baby alarm was bliss - so why did Grace wake me at 4.15 to be let out?????
Ariadne hope the knee is less painful now and you got some sleep.
