Owen has been poorly since saturday, he has the dreaded lurgy and has been throwing up more or less for the past 3 days.  I think today must be the end of it because he satrted perking up this afternoon but this morning all he did  was sleep on my lap.  I wasn't able to move even an inch away from him without hysterical sobbing and cries of "Mummy ( Read more... )

Oh, I'm glad he's feeling better. (Owen's a lovely name, how old is he?)

So sweet that he cheered up a bit for Mama. Awww, the lad has good taste!

£16 a bottle??? Does it come with a naked Gerard to run the bath for you and wash your back, because it really should...... *G*

I have visions of you coming back to me saying "Owen's 28"...it's making me chuckle.

Have you heard that great poem by the comic poet John Hegley?

Bonfire Night

The doors open
everyone comes out
everyone is ready
for fireworks
all except the dog
Eddie
he is shut up in the sheddie
even out of doors we have indoor fireworks
Dad says it is better to be safe than dead
the air is full of the smell of next doors fireworks
Mum says they are very good this year
this year Christopher is allowed
to help his dad to light the fireworks
he is very excited
he is very proud
he is twenty-eight

Hehe. I like the poem, I haven't heard it before. Owen is actually nearly two and a half. Bizarrely I've just worked out that he's 28 MONTHS, so you're nearly right.

The bubble bath was lovely, it smells like a forest fruits ice cream and it has little glittery bits in it. I looked in the box for my very own Gerard (or Frank, I'm not fussy) but I think he must have been left in the factory. :-(

I feel I should explain, I don't normally spend that sort of cash on stuff for my bath, but my sister in law sells Virgin Cosmetics and every now and then I feel kind of obliged to buy something off her. It's a bit like having a best friend who's an Avon lady (actually, I've had that as well). Every birthday and Christmas each female member of my family gets Virgin Gifts. It's getting rather repetetive now...."oh, bubble bath/lipstick/mascara/, how nice...". Still, it's nice to be spoiled every now and then, and it's lovely stuff - really luxurious.
