We are going tonite. Kids are being spread amongst neighbors, except oldest two. Lucky Peter is now on solids and is a very friendly baby. Looking forward to it although won't see much as am only 4' 10. Still I have great hearing!!!

I just want there not to be a baby. I have had 12 of my own, one died as an infant, and I love them dearly of course but when I watch TV I want to escape, and to me, escaping means no pregnancies and no babies. However, obviously other people are not in my situation but a baby wouldn't fit, in my opinion, and it's too far from cannon, it's getting too far away from the idea that this is a modern version of the stories. I want Sherlock and John investigating, not John dealing with a baby and a wife.

Still, Moffat likes to joke and things he says often don't happen.

Some really great photos here. So much talent. I like to take photos. However, most of them are of my kids or our cats and I don't put pics of the kids on line

Order of kids is son, daughter, son, son, triplets, daughter, twins, son. Youngest is 7 months old. The twins are 2, number 8 is 3 1/2, triplets are 5. You get the idea. Not only have I survived but I write fan fic too. However, I was hyperactive as a kid and I don't need much sleep, which is very useful. Only here because OH has day off and is doing Schule run. We have a minibus. It's called Cecilia. Second son is a genius and could read at the age of 2. He wil be 9 in the summer and has already read all the Harry Potter books in German and English and is now learning Chinese. He writes to famous people. He's written to David Cameron several times giving him suggestions, his own words, on how to improve his image and the economy. No comment. He also gives his Dad suggestions on what lottery numbers to pick. We have won several times but it might be a coincident. Hope so, phew------

Edited for spelling----

Oh hell. Well, they're all home from Schule or Kindergarten and I've fed the baby and my oldest daughter is practising for a trumpet exam and my second son is accompanying her on the piano. My third son and the older set of twins, who are part of triplets, have just run past me chasing one of our cats who has come in with a dead mouse in his mouth. The other triplet and my third daughter are watching the TV, and the twins, the younger set, are building something with duplo in the middle of the floor. I'm typing this while watching the stove. Oldest son is out. Cat just exited flap still carrying mouse.

Yes, that does make 11. Just glad I'm not pregnant.  Ah Bliss.

Regarding the curls. My oldest son has curls, they inherit them from me, so it's all my fault, and he hates them. We sent him out one day with some money to get his hair cut and he came back almost scalped. He hates his curls and I can't help wondering if Ben is the same. I know he hates his Sherlock hair as he's said so more than once. I must admit I don't like mine much either.

I have a feeling that all these awards for Redmayne will turn out to be a bit of a curse. It's happened before. He's OK but he's just not that great and people will be disappointed in him. His performance in his latest film has not been well received, for example. As for Ben, even in flops he's always been great.

Regarding the campaign, Benedict was a bit busy filming two other things while he was campaigning. Also he was part of the campaign to pardon 49,000 people who were condemned like Turing, and he was getting married, he was busy busy. It seems if you play a physically demanding part you get awards regardless of anything else, which seems wrong to me. However, I admit to finding Redmayne an unimpressive actor, and I have seen him in other things and wished I hadn't bothered. Anyhow, Ben has a long and probably distinguished career ahead of him and he and Sophie look really happy.

Final word, there are reports floating around that Ben's parents were backing Redmayne to win and not Ben. It's reported as if they were not supporting Ben at all. Actually what they said was they thought Redmayne would win, which he did.

Woke up to find that Redmayne won again. I appologise profusely but I've seen The theory of everything and think that both the movie and his performance have been overrated. It was good but not better than the other nominees. It seems to win you have to play someone with an illness. It's like The Kings Speech all over again, that was overrated too and Firth hasn't won anything since.

Part of my problem with TTOE is, I admit it, I'm not at all interested in Eddie Redmayne and have seen him in other things and wasn't very impressed. I'm also not interested in Hawking. Sorry TIG didn't get best picture too. (Giving the Baffta to Boyhood surprised me as well as it was very boring and long.) Anyhow, back to bed after feeding baby. That's what you get when you have 11 kids. Lots of lack of sleep.

At this very moment I'm listening to my oldest daughter and my second son teaching themsleves to play Let it go from Frozen as a violin duet. They haven't got any music and are earing it, or whatever it's called in English. It would be great if my third son, who is 6, wasn't trying to sing with them.
