Apologies for lack of comments and suchlike ...

... I DO read, but suffer from two problems at the moment:
- very irregular internet access because I think our phone line (which traverses the air to a central post outside our garden) might be more or less reliable depending on the wind
- being besieged by a cute 9.5 month old, who refuses to leave Mummy's side when she's at home, so that she can feed and cuddle when she needs to

Methinks I need to start wearing her in a sling at home so that I can get at least SOME admin & housework done - or have Daddy watch her. She's fine if I'm out of her sight, but as soon as I walk into the room, she HAS to be with me. Or else. She'll also cling to my legs to make her point.

Well, 'tis nice to feel appreciated, no? :D

The phone line problem would bug me no end, I'm afraid :-(

A thought does occur, though: you're not using Wireless, are you? If you are, is it properly tied down to the relevant MAC addresses? A paranoid hypothesis might be that someone's snaffling your bandwith on an unlocked wireless network. But that's just me being paranoid...

My wireless network is secured through WPA and a password, so that should not happen. It's the "broadband" or "line in" light on the router that keeps flickering, and there's an awful buzz on our phone line (very, very low quality). So I suspect it's the cable giving out. We've had days sans phone ...

Don't worry, I think your FL understands that kiddoes can take up a lot of Mum's time, cute as they are!

I haven't been commenting or posting as much either, lately, because I've been swamped with schoolwork. Busyness happens and I think many people find themselves commenting less or whatever due to real life, every once in a while.
