I met a woman today who I used to be related to, she was the wife of the nutcase's uncle but she isn't any longer. I'd seen her when I was out with the kids a few weeks ago and I'd been surprised that she didn't have a go at me about something but then I didn't know they'd split and weirdly she didn't know we had!

I'd heard all kinds of stories about her over the years from the in laws, things about her making decisions she had no 'right' to make and taking things that weren't hers and even that she was stealing her mother in law's pension.  Today i found out just what stories she had been hearing over the years about me!!

We got some seriously funny looks in the shop as we laughed rather loudly at the madness of the family we've escaped from, they really are as mad as a box of frogs!






Tiny needed some new shoes, she seems to go through them like water but then she runs around, climbing on things 'adventuring' all the time so its not to be wondered at really.  I looked at the rack of shoes there were some lovely black slip-ons, some dark purple boots, some brown sandals and some white trainers and then there were some bright pink boots that had furry insides and elastic for laces.  Guess which ones Tiny picked ;-) 

Both kids now have winter boots but i don't :-( I just can't find warm and cosy boots that go up to a size 8! I might just have to go back to my walking boots if the weather turns bad which aren't bad so I'm sure I'll manage :-)

Have a good evening people.
