invaded by the monster teenies

its just a good b movie title! we had a lovely drop by on their way back from hallowween camp. SB had insited on making chocolate spread cake, and it didn’t work at all this time. Nic and Ady manfully ate it though and i don’t think the children cared as it was ‘cake’.

lots of running about by the children, playing will all sorts of bits – the wacky wigglers still a favourite – and a brief slow down with a film. they wet to bed far to late as were being very happy an not disturbing our natter!. A chippery supper and final collapse.

A VERY late start in the morning for the adults, though children up with the larks. A bad start for me since was woken by BB infrming me there was poo in her nappy, and proving it by showing me a handful – lovely! After a sluice down we went downstairs. What I hadn’t realised, was that there were a few other places in the house where she had investigated the contents of her nappy. This came to light when Teeny asked what was on her foot…. SO a trawl around cleaning the house and we were ready for the day [if slightly mortified]. Pancakes and play. A very tired monster! After lunch we said goodbye and settled down for a relaxing afternoon, as SB also needing a chill out in front of a david attenbrorough film [mammals]

BB was a total pest going to sleep. I had had a lovely [very long!] phone call, and BB woke up 3 secs after we got cut off [for exceeding the allowable length of phone calls - 2 hours] and then wouldn’t go to sleep.

my system adminstrator has for once done something useful, and attached the old computer stack to the television [somehow - too technical for me] so we could watch battlestar galactica downloads directly rather than putting tehm on DVD. fantastic. Since BB would nOT sleep, we did this till 2 – oops. She was a pain even when we had gone to bed, so me and Chris tired today.

  1. Thanks for lovely stopover. You forgot to mention the head injury – hope it was chocolate and not blood.

  2. was blood, but has subsequently stopped! haven’t peeled off plaster yet though

  3. I have been having real trouble getting episodes 3/4/5 of the new series to download, which is a real pain as 1&2 had very much whetted my appetite.

    What are your sysadmins recommendations?

  4. Oh and lol at the post title – just when you thought it was safe to eat lentils! :lol:

  5. Can’t remember if you said you’d liked the West Wing when you were after recommendations of stuff to watch a while back, but Sorkin’s now made Studio 60 – we’ve watched 5 or 6 episodes so far, and it’s very very good. If you’re still after things to watch. I’ve just got Firefly, that’s supposed to be good too.

  6. ooh, am a west wing fanatic! thanks for that Alison

  7. And there wasn’t an episode last night :-(

  8. Now you’ve made me cry :(

  9. Oh, and we fell asleep during the first episode of Firefly, but that was probably more our fault than theirs. Will persevere with #2.

  10. rofl at you! we are still BSG at the mo.
