    Do you not have a TV?...

    Our kids are a bit older now so I'm hoping they're OK with the move and not-quite-ready house

    Sorry to hear that mate

    Things are starting to get easier, the wife has just gone back to work and they are both at nursery which helps
    Don't get me wrong, love those kids to bits... but those WFH days when the wife and I are both home are fantastic

    Then there are the days when one or both are ill and work goes out the window, deadlines pile up but the kiddos have to take priority
