Brilliant & oh so true. How is it that my husband didn't get the super-hearing that I developed (seemingly over night with the birth of number 1) where the children are concerned? He has just never heard them. It would drive me mad when with number 2 (a terrible night sleeper - entirely my own fault and another story completely) I'd be up & down like a yoyo all night, only to have lovely husband ping awake at 7a.m.ish saying "well that was a good night wasn't it?" Ggrrrrr (6)

That is soo true - 'cept for me a couple of additions:


- baby would regularly be on the floor if not 'trapped' by another pillow

- eldest daughter usually comes in too (with at least a couple of needle-sharp Barbies)

- I end up with my head jammed against the bedside table (if not on it)

- I get fed up and sleep in one of the girls' beds

- they then follow me there...


Dad sleeps in big bed ALL BY HIMSELF

I'm three to a single bed (particularly love the baby with legs on her head - why oh why is that so frequent?) :)

Have to admit that in our house the opposite is true - our youngest is 3 and sometimes wakes in the night for the toilet/drink/monster elimination and I never hear her :-$ So it's me waking up in the morning thinking we had a brilliant quiet night, and Mr Pickle with bags under his eyes. Oops.

    • I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays! 
    • Was that the one where you put a coin in and it squirted water at you? what was the name of the one in hanway street - whatever you ordered it came on a segmented tray like you get in prison (I imagine). Prices were a steal.
