Fun Monday – Spider Pig
Ok. Fun Monday comes today from the lovely Peter at Holties house.
I’m hoping his link will work. It is here…

He asked us to “regale us with your best joke and/or cartoon, remember its New Years Eve and we feel
like a good laugh, before 2008 comes along and does its [...]

Ikea pants

Can’t stop long.
Have to sleep.
We have been to see the great Lord of flat packed furniture today, and he bestowed on us a wardrobe, a bookcase and some Ikea underpants (?).
No really. We had to buy them just to see what they were like. Here is the box.

You’d think they’d have [...]

Puppy love

Tonight Miss M does not want to go to bed.
She does not want to go to bed because of this.

Go on.
Click the link.
You’ll like it.
Honest. It’s cute…
In fact it’s the ideal pet.
It obeys basic commands.
You don’t have to feed it.
And it poops on someone else’s carpet.
Big sighhhhh.
The only trouble is, Miss M is now [...]

Christmas crafts, hee hee.

David McMahon’s Weekend Wandering question a few weeks back was: What was the best Christmas present you ever received?
As usual, if you’d like to answer this on your own blog link back to his weekend wandering post to let him know, or pop over there and see the party he had yesterday. It was [...]

Mr B, come home from work soon, pleeeease

Today is the day in the UK, where things start floating back down to earth and you look around you and take stock.
Christmas day is spent in a fervour of family, food and fun.

Boxing Day is much the same. We visit family, or they come here. We eat the aforementioned Bubble and Squeak, [...]

The Scent of Christmas

I have one word for you this holiday season.
And the word is…

…gas
(Mmmm Bubble and Squeak)

Who reads blogs on Christmas Day anyway?

Well just in case you do, I have a little something for you.
I prepared this before Babs went off to more snowy climes.
Hope you are all having a wonderful day. x

Happy Christmas Eve
Our guests have just left.
We have filled them with chilli, beer, wine, gnachos and chocolate.
Miss E and M are in bed, though E is not yet sleeping.
Last time we checked Santa was in Sweden so he’s heading in our direction. I am so excited, but absolutely knackered.
Thank you so much for all [...]

Toddlers are cleverer than you might think

Miss M made the biggest mess in the living room yesterday.
In the space of about 10 minutes she managed to drag out every toy that was in there and spread them about the room dramatically. It looked, according to Mr B, as if we’d been burgled.
Being the cool daddy that he is, he decided [...]

Happy Christmas from Babs and the hunky snow boarders.

If anyone was wondering what Barbara is doing this holiday season, she has chosen to spend Christmas away from la famille Beaufoix, and is instead somewhere in France on the piste.
Ahem, I said, on the PISTE…
She is a bit of a glam one our Babs.
So while she [...]
