hubby and daughter have gone away to see his family for a few days - i'm working.


First time alone in the house since she was born! I told my colleague at work expecting to get sympathy for my loneliness but he was just - YOU HAVE THE HOUSE TO YOURSELF!


what should i be doing. so far, I've been for a swim, loaded the dishwasher with some of the chaos that was left in their departure (more of that later too), watched revenge.


feel like i should be running naked around the house or something . ideas?!!


what I shall enjoy is a LONG sleep with NO INTERRUPTIONS. As well as not creeping around the house in the morning when i get up to go to work!


Tempted to call in sick to make the most of it all , but better not...

watch all those films and old repeats you want to but husband not keen on. Play loud music, thrash metal or grime or something similarly blasting. Read in bed for aaaaages, eating left over Easter eggs and hot cross buns. The bathroom is Yours and Yours Alone.


You don't have to compromise on ANYTHING!! Awesome!!!

My hubby is taking my 3 (assuming I can get youngest Pickle to take a bottle) to see his family in Scotland in May. I can't wait. When I was pregnant with #3 he took the older two away for a week, my Mum was adamant I would rattle round the house missing them terribly.


I ate Pringles for dinner, watched TV at the time I'd usually be doing bath/bed, went to Bluewater for a day with just a handbag.


Bliss. It was lovely to have them home, but both they and I had a great time!


Enjoy!

Watching grown up TV while eating breakfast sounds like a pretty good start! And just think, same again after work without anyone to dictate the channel!


Recharge your batteries as they soon return quick enough for the missed cuddles you're craving and the madness continues!

My priority is always a leisurely breakfast with the newspaper spread out over the table. I actually get to eat an entire piece of toast and drink the whole cup of (still hot) coffee without having to get up from my seat. (Sometimes if I wake up really early and can't get back to sleep I sneak down to do this, but invariably the toast has just popped when I hear little footsteps on the stairs.)

    • Was chatting to my mates including Robert Jenrick in the Crompton Arms in Handsworth and this was an obvious one   Robert come and have a chat, I once lived in Handsworth, you twit The track has improved further with age
    • The difficulty with all the national shame is that you are handing the world to the right wing populist parties ("The flag, love it or leave it").  You can look at many if not most of Europe for the damage their colonial conquests did to much of the world. For Britain we could equally look at partition and the impact on the Indian subcontinent, 10 million plus death and the bonkers situation with India and Pakistan now.  Spain and Portugal went much further in wiping out much of the population of South America.  i understand that Stalin was less.  We all know about the Third Reich, even then perhaps the allies could have done more. I am not questioning what you say, but sadly most are only concerned about the present and don't care about sins of the past. And back to my earlier comment that some will point out other 'conflicts' attracting much less interest. Not a reason not to march tomorrow

    • I'm interested to know why you say that? They both sell the same kind of thing, they both have own brand products, and unless I've got it completely wrong, they both seem to be trying to attract the same kind of customer? I would have thought a Waitrose and an M&S so close to each other would have split the customer base (?not sure of the correct term) for both of them? People might shop in both, but I'd have thought each store would still lose out on sales?
