No last night but the night before....

Three wee monkeys came tae ma door;
One wi` a trumpet an` one wi` a drum,
An` one wi` a pancake stickin' up it's bum.

The night after the Hogmanay bash, we host a 'Leftovers' party. Originated a few years ago when I received a text from some friends saying they were bored as their husbands had gone to bed early after the night's excess.

They all came to us.

Now every year, on 1st Jan, whoever is fit and able come to us with whatever leftover drink, food, children, chocs etc - is left over. This clears all the naughty stuff out of the house and you can start the 2nd January diets !

A quieter night tonight, although we still managed to party til 2 am (sorry about the late night drunken phone call to my sister in Oz!)

Quiet day today. Managed to clear out a load of old toys from No 3's bedroom (don't tell her though - as I told her I was putting them in the loft!).

Here's 3 wee monkeys - think they were reacting to our girlie chat on the symptoms of menopause....come to think of it - kids made themselves scarce at that point too!
