Bloody kids and their money! My youngest insisted that she needed the biggest monkey toy yesterday. The smallest, cheapest one was just not what she wanted. She was the happiest girl in the world when she spent ALL her pocket money on it yesterday.

Today, she doesn't want it. She wants more money to buy more things, just like her sister has. We are not backing down on this issue, she has spent her money and that's the end of the matter. She is not a happy bunny!

Blocked drains at the house this morning, couldn't be cleared by a 2000psi jet, so the drain man is coming back tomorrow with a 4000psi one. I feel bad for my aunt and uncle as this blockage has been going on for weeks and nobody else that has stayed here has noticed or mentioned it. They feel bad because we noticed it! Life happens, we deal with it. It didn't spoil our day.
