Thanks, I do feel a little more human now after sleeping most of the day away, just very cold, heating is on and I'm now downstairs but got a throw on me too. Sure it'll just be a 24 hour thing, or I hope so as due to go out tomorrow night to meet the (potential) inlaws of my son as he got engaged Christmas day and they want to meet us!

Congratulations Mike nd welcome to the world Alfie!!

My best present was to see all of my girlies together on Christmas Day. It was magical!!

Hope you feel better Leslie, I am shivering and trying to keep a cold at bay. Luckily, I had some slippers that you hesat in the microwace, so my feet are like toast ( for obvious reasons, hubby is in charge of heating[:D])

I had lots of lovely gifts, including bubble bath, a kindle and PJ's with "grumpy but gorgeous" splashed over them [:D]

Got another favourite pressy yesterday of my friend, "friends" boxset series on DVD - only been hinting to the hubby for it for the past 10 years! X
Final IVA payment made in April 2013, never ever thought we could do it or get through it but we did! X

Huge congrats mike!!!!

We found out a few days before christmas that we are to become grandparents. Very exciting!

Hubby bought me an ipad2 and my brother bought me a dishwasher butbthe best gift of all was off the kids. They all clubbed together and went to a photo studio and had proffessional pictures done and framed for us. First time in ten years we have had photos of all the kids together and they are gorgeous!!!

Congratulations Lisa - when is the little one due?

What lovely gifts you've had. We had some professional pictures taken last year and they're great aren't they?

IPad 2, jealous me .............NEVER....much!

Seriously so pleased you're joining the Grandma club. I've had the twins today and they're so funny at the minute. Your photos are gorgeous I have to admit, very beautiful children.

I'm due my 8th...yes 8th Grandchild in August too! The twins are going to have a brother or sister (hopefully not twins again). x
