I've often said that there is nothing that my wife and I can't handle together. We put this to the test over the last 48 hours. Let me explain ( Read more... )

Way back at the end of November, Little B presented me with his X-Mas list. It was a 38-item collection of some pretty outrageous stuff that he had no chance at all of getting . . . ever.
