    ?kids shoes DS3 had new shoes Saturday, he wore them a bit in the afternoon and a bit on Sunday. Wore them to school all day and has a blister on his heel and on the top of this foot. This has never happened before, the girl in the shop was happy with the fit, do you think it is cause they are new or should this never happen with kids shoes? I'll phone the shop in the morning but wanted your views.

    Take them back.. don't let him wear them they should NOT do this!

    The stuff from our Harvest Festival at school goes to a local home / day centre for the elderly, and the one at church sends the food to the centre for asylum seekers and refugees. It's a new one on me to buy the produce back :confused: Ah well!

    I haven't heard of this either. Our school donated to a local homeless charity - if they're going to give money surely it makes sense just to give money in the first place?

    Justamum - smileys were from the link that someone else (sorry forgot who, but it was a great find) posted earlier today (while I was at work sleep2.gif). I add them to my favourites when people post them, so that when I have time and a good opportunity, I can make the most of them

    For everyone who hasn't got the smiley links, here they are:

    Maybe we could persuade Pigpen to put them in the first post? They've got these for her to use on us:

    and her Friday smiley HSnails.gif

    Didn't do too badly today. Only the floors left to do, sweep.gifand I'll deal with those when I do the LR/Hall ... whenever that ends up being

    Off for a bathtub.gifbath now, then I just need to decide what to wear and I might even make it swimming swim.giftomorrow morning yay.gifyay.gifyay.gif
