Hi Reedy, hey, do you make your own pinatas? It's something that isn't really on yet over here, but I really would love to know how to make one...so if you can spare the time could you tell me how to do it?



Did you also have to drink the Obelix poition? You know, the informative magazine made in France during the Roman and Druidic time?



Hi Nicky,
We had a look at renting also, but we have the same worries as you have. So we changed EA's and will 'use' 2008 as our final 'trying to sell year' before we try to rent out. We also need the equity our of our house to start a new life. I currently have a good job but won't be working the first couple of years in Australia to set up life and help Joe (our son) settle in as he has to learn English. So it will be hard to pay for the mortgage if it doesn't sell. Plus that over here we have a system where you get tax back on the rent you pay on your mortgage (yes...we do) which will stop within 2 years after taking up residency in another country. Earlier still if you buy a new house in your 'new country'. So..this will up the costs even more.

I have made a pinata I made a hot air ballon once - easiest.... Here is instruction from an American site:

http://jas.familyfun.go.com/arts-and...e=CraftDisplay

A lot of the shop bought ones are made of cardboard - so you could do it that way and just stick on the paper - they are harder to smash though

Buying them is easier though - you would be surprised how many they sell over here if you have a look on the net....... I went to a party shop today and they had a good variety... I can't decide whether to get a handbag one or a traditional bull or even a 1 and a 3......

I am also printing out recipes for non-alcoholic cocktails and laminating them, buying plastic cocktail glasses and all the bits and letting them loose with the ingredients..... The kids think it sounds like a fab idea - I think it sounds messy but who cares

Hi Lau

We arrive on the 5th April, leaving here on the 3rd, might take you up on that

Scott, I LOVE a lie in, we don't usually get them, school run during the week, then Stage school and Rugby practice on Saturday morning and rugby match Sunday morning - I LOVE BANK and SCHOOL HOLIDAYS when we don't have to go anywhere

Thanks for the link, I will surely have a go at it. I really like the idea of the cocktail making, you could try to spice it up (if it needs too with a bunch of little kids running around ) with a bit of cocktail shaking like in the movie with Tom Cruise...forgot the name...never recovered my brain cells after being pregnant .
