Hot and steamy in the bedroom tonight

Bloody weather.

Too hot to sleep.

If we ever do make it to Canada, top priority will be a house with air con, or a nice cool converted basement to sleep in.

Re: ghastly morning sickness - whatcha think?

Re: PR's don't want to pledge

And before people start to say she's just a figurehead, in the UK she has an incredible amount of power (not sure about canada). Now if she exercised that power to the full extent I'm sure there...
