Halloween

Just thought I would update by saying we had a load of kids calling for Halloween - We got through 2 tins of choccies!

Douglas put ash on his eyes and face, and flour in his beard, and limped to the door like a good Ogre should! He managed to scare a few kids, and amuse a few adults.

Later, when the kids had gone, we watched the film "The Last Mimsy" which was great - its a sci-fi for kids and big kids film, but a bit soppy.

Douglas is feeling much better now - the fluid certainly has gone down but hes still got a rash - particularly on his feet and back. He did loads round the house yesterday (hurrah for house trained husband!) and made me a really great veggie curry! yum yum yum.

D is due to see the Dr at the hospital again today, have given him strict instructions to disucss his legs, and ask them for ceterizine (an antihistamine/anti allergy/itch tablet) on prescription as he keeps dipping into my supply.

Looking forward to the weekend - we have M&L (the twins) with us for the whole of Saturday, and then their little brother, C will be deposited with us in the evening. Will give their parents a nice break, and us a chance to spoil the three of them rotten (as usual!)
