Benbens moneymaking adventure

Hi BB, long time no speak. I'm still keeping up with the thread every day, good to see you and B doing so well...:T. That was a lovely thing the Virgin Trains bloke did, there's not enough people like that in the world.

Has he thought any more about playing football at all?

He hasn't really shown any interest but he did seem to enjoy it tonight and I know my brother has bought him a Bournemouth shirt for his birthday so hopefully that might reiginte the enthusiasm a bit

Who's the train spotter??? :rotfl:

When's DS's birthday???

benbenandme

LOL Tigz :rotfl: :rotfl: Trust me,if you had to listen to him go on and on about them damn trains you'd be an expert too

Its his birthday on sunday, he's going to his dads tonight till tomorrow afternoon so I have to get everything ready in that time, I've already done most of the stuff for party bags and I've bought some banners and stuff but I need a trip to Tescos tonight or tomorrow morning to get other bits, he's invited a few of his school friends for a little party, but had major tantrums when I said he couldn't invite everyone I'm sorry there wasn't room for E, but promise we'll catch up soon!

tigzem

Awww bless him, don't worry about not having E, I know what it's like!!

I'll try to pop a card in the post today... if I can find one with a train on, lol!!

Our camping plans have gone wrong today, mum's cataract op didn't go to plan, so she stayed in overnight and she's not upto it, so everyone else said they wouldn't go, but DD is devastated!! She doesn't understand and I'd been using it as a bribe all week so now she probably thinks I'm the meanest mummy ever as she's been soooo good.... not happy!!!

Sorry x

benbenandme

Could you not make her a camp in the lounge and let her sleep in that?

tigzem

It might come to that..... but she knows proper camping so she's sat here in tears at the moment Wish I had a garden!!!!!!

DS is 6 on Sunday???

benbenandme

yep he'll be 6 his party is looking a bit precarious now, he's just started being sick

tigzem

Oh no.... really hope he's better in time and it's not anything nasty... hugs xxx

My friends neice has swine flu, she's just over a year old and is really poorly.

I remember DD's 2nd birthday Paul and I went down with tonsilitus so had to postpone her party.

Going camping in my Auntie's garden now... yay

Have booked our camping trip for 21st,but not going to mention it to DD til the day, I can't be doing with the stress again :rotfl:

benbenandme

I'll be gutted if we have to cancel his party, why are they always ill around their birthdays :rolleyes: He's still lying on the sofa and being sick every 5 minutes or so
