    Well elephant me and call me Vilmos, this not working thing rocks! :-D We just spent four days down on the lake. The water is not quite swimming levels, about 18°C, but the weather has been brilliant, 30°C plus & bright sun, and we did lots of jobs around the house. Without actually throwing anything out, we managed to reduce the 'to sort' piles from filling two garages down to one. Progress! I took the Ickles to school this morning and was back cooking my breakfast by 8am - bacon wrapped sausages. :cool: Today is going to be a fracking laid back day as I slowly ease into doing nothing. How long will it last? [edit] Radio 4 working - check :cool: Coffee machine working over time - check :java:


    Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett

      Your title let me fear you had died. It would have been uncommon for you to post here then, but who knows. So you ended up in some kind of paradise? :)

      At least artificial intelligence already is superior to natural stupidity

        14 months is hard. Twins are hard. Boys are hard. Stick them together and it's time you ran away. Fast!

            Still, they combined are easier than the 3 year old version who has endless tantrums. I may have to run away when then twins turn three.

              You have my deepest sympathies. My two are mostly well behaved, but we do get the occasional tantrum when one or tother is tired. Up to 5, it is hard having children. After that it's all down hill. :laugh:

                Fortunately their mother takes it all in her stride. I don't know how she does it - the three year old is at pre-school two days a week but other than that she has them all the time. While I was sick it was hell.

                                  It's not the stamps falling off that's the problem, it's the toxicity of the drool which prevents keeping them in a post bag.

                                    The drool is as nothing to the noxious materials flowing in a constant stream from the other end... X|

                                      Till the kids get home from school? Want 14 month old twin boys? They're a massive PITA lately and too young for school, I'm happy to pay shipping.

                                        Well elephant me and call me Vilmos, this not working thing rocks! :-D We just spent four days down on the lake. The water is not quite swimming levels, about 18°C, but the weather has been brilliant, 30°C plus & bright sun, and we did lots of jobs around the house. Without actually throwing anything out, we managed to reduce the 'to sort' piles from filling two garages down to one. Progress! I took the Ickles to school this morning and was back cooking my breakfast by 8am - bacon wrapped sausages. :cool: Today is going to be a fracking laid back day as I slowly ease into doing nothing. How long will it last? [edit] Radio 4 working - check :cool: Coffee machine working over time - check :java:
