They are incredibly well-behaved dogs thanks to their training, but we felt it was best both for the safety of the Boys and Girls as well as to take temptation away from Umber and Becca (the dogs) if the Cuddly Toys were decanted from the living room, just for one night. We had visions of a tossed Cuddly Toy flying through the air and multiple severed limbs.
The living room looked *strange* though.

The atmosphere was even stranger. At one point Mads came through from from the kitchen to ask if everyone was alright, only to realise that I was the only one sitting there.
Although there was initially a *lot* of resistance, we just stuck X Factor on the bedroom telly and they were fine ...

You can imagine how long it takes to move them all! That's why there aren't the number of family trips we'd like.
Yep, to quote Mads - 'I live in a madhouse!'
