How have you been? Busy busy busy - looking after Mum/house/dogs, plus we are going to be moving soon to a bungalow in North Devon. We will get the keys in a few weeks, then we have to see what work needs doing before we can move in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still trying to work out how some of them didn't know they were dual nationals So, I've been working pretty hard - working as a teacher's aide (the department calls them School Learning Support Officers, or SLSOs - they love their acronyms! ). The school hasn't had a good few days, the indigenous girl's group room got broken into over the weekend and they broke the big tv and stole a stereo and a laptop, then this morning two dogs got into the Ag farm and killed about 20 sheep, plus an adult alpaca and the baby . I've been also helping with some stuff for mum as she's running for the local council, plus Mayor (we get to vote for Mayor, who will stay in for 4 years rather than the councillors voting every year). It's been a bit of a s**t fight, the current councillors are acting like children, including one that couldn't fill in the form correctly and got excluded because he left handing the form in till the last minute and didn't have time to fix it (he had a hissy fit and went to a solicitor, then the electoral commission allowed him in so they had to redraw for the form). I just printed out some iron on stuff for t shirts for Zoe, Britt and I to wear, so I'll have to take a pic to share. What else... I've got a few appointments sorted out for Sam so we work out why he's not talking. So we're testing his hearing again, having a follow up with the speech pathologist and a visit to the Paediatrician. We've also got a few day and overnight trips coming up, so flat out!

silver Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 Horrible news about all the animals killed - did they catch the dogs? I didn't realise Sam wasn't talking but it may be nothing to worry about. One of my cousins didn't start talking until he was over two (we think he just couldn't be bothered , as long as he was fed and played with he was happy). But maybe wise to rule out any physical causes. We should be moving to our new house some time next month, still quite a bit of work to do on it though we have been quite lucky with finding plumbers, electricians, builders etc - they all seem to be having a bit of a lull atm. However we need to crack on before the weather starts to deteriorate in the autumn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However we need to crack on before the weather starts to deteriorate in the autumn. Apparently they did. The ranger followed one of them home. The owner wasn't co-operating at first so I believe they got the police involved, though I think they eventually surrendered them. They'll end up being put down, if they haven't already. Yeah, I'm not too sure why he's not talking. The speech pathologist thought his understanding of language was behind where he should be (It could be receptive language issues, going by what I've read). We're still in the process of getting him assessed. The Paediatrician is apparently good with language issues, so we'll soon see how that goes.Sam's def happy as long as he has food and toys. At least his social skills are developing. Oh, that's lucky! Sometimes is so hard to get tradies in to do stuff, you almost don't want to jinx it if they are able to come fairly quick. Hopefully the weather takes a while before it starts getting cold and miserable. Oh, and here's a pic of the t shirts I did. I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out :biggrin2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nico_collard Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Oh, I just noticed that at least a few of the images aren't loading on the first post so I'll have to see if I have them saved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 We've lost a lot of pics, either because the original poster has deleted them from the photo server, or, if it's Photobucket, because they have changed their T&Cs and want you to pay to show your pics on a third party site. Fortunately you can upload photos directly to MFC now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nico_collard Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 (edited) Ah, okay then. Pretty sure I'll grab them off Photobucket and post them in here, so you can add them. EDIT: Okay, here we go... the Mikamite jar is the logo, Mika Hut and Mikacard are fairly self explanatory, the goat is Beryl Geranium, the camel is Sparkles (not the same but it'll do), the pic of Mika with the cookie is the Subway one and the Keep Calm one is under the bit on Raffa.
