We stayed in today to have a lazy day and catch up on housework, ironing etc..
Last night Roman asked Mark to glue his new space ship together, the glue dried overnight so Roman has been playing with it today and annoying Anais who was playing with her Littlest Pet Shop toys. Roman wanted to blast the Littlest Pet Shop animals into space on the space ship, Anais wanted them to stay in the Pet Shop!
Anais - "Roman, no space ships, NO, Can you hear me? Its a Pet Shop"
Roman "Anais, Anais, they're going to space (making blast off noises!)"

I asked if they wanted to make some chocolate corn flake cakes, Anais said no, Roman said yes, think Anais was pleased to get some peace and quiet from Roman!
He mixed butter, chocolate and golden syrup over a bain-marie (supervised) and added chocolate flakes. He spooned it into a silicone loaf mould as I thought it would be easier to cut it into four pieces than try to pour the mixture into four paper cake cases and finally went into the fridge to set. This afternoon it was removed from the fridge, removed from the silicone mould and we ate it for pudding. Roman was proud of his baking!

The peace and quiet was short lived however, as after he finished making the corn flake cakes he went back to blasting animals into space on his space ship! Anais got fed up by this point, handed the Pet Shop over to him and raided the recycling box for an empty cereal carton. She spent the afternoon making a two story model interior of our house.
Mark got home from work approx 4pm and as the weather was warm and the back garden dry he took down the crushed fence from when the fence fell down, so it didn't ruin the grass. He and the kids swept the patio and tidied the garden up a little in preparation for us pulling the garden furniture out for when the weather gets warmer.
Roman was a little upset at the fence being gone as he put it "anyone can come in our garden now" so he took his football cones and put them where the fence should be! Hope next door don't think we're being funny! (Picture also taken by Roman as I was too scared in case neighbour spotted me!)
