I'm gonna have to sort of pull out I'm afraid. With Maci being the only kid there, she can be a real handful when she's bored, and bored she will get :lol:

But saying that, I'll still pop along for an hour or so, to drop stuff off, pick stuff up, and lend a hand where I can but need to get back to Maria n Maci as I've been working stupid hours all week and have hardly been at home if you know what I mean. And with it being Maci's birthday party sunday there's loads to do.

Hope you understand Stretch n Gem
