I have mentioned before that I am seriously thinking about living in a commune with my single girlfriends and all their children. Sharing the load and dividing up the tasks. The main difficulty for me working all of a sudden full time is feeding my children something healthy and nutritious at the right time. If left to their own devices they would have a take-away every day of the week – even if I found the time (and inclination) to cook in advance they would decide to eat other things – my food, for some reason nearly always gets rejected by my children if I’m not around to force feed them.

SO as I mentioned, my gorgeous girlfriend has been helping me out. Bringing her kids round. Feeding them all together. It’s working well. My house is full and my children are fed.

Thank you so much to my daughter’s friend for taking some splendid photos of all the action in my absence:-

    Great idea – I go on a Mums and kids holiday with 3 friends every year. We rent a house and all cook together and we always talk about how we should live together full-time. Our husbands aren’t so keen though!
