    soappie I am with jjef, you definately deserve 2 (or more) I cried because of 2 reasons, such a lovely thing to do for someone, I've done it before myself so know it works 2 ways as it's a wonderful feeling to be able to help. Second one is when I told the boys Grandad couldn't get it they cried, I said we'd see if Santa could get one, soappie is Santa! :D I have Cheshire Cat syndrome now! I've never let them down when it comes to getting what they wanted, managed to get Wii and Nintendo DS last year despite the shortages, even have a Wii Fit which are hard to find, didn't want to start now having disappointed children.

    kassey enjoy your evening, I like the slobbing too, I'm known for putting trousers on over my PJ bottoms and a coat over the top to take the dog out then back into PJs :D I love wearing them.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Hope you're having a great holiday Flower xxx

    Soappie - that bought a tear to my eye too, that was so kind of you to find the lego city for Lil_me. I know two boys who will be very happy this christmas.

    I've finally managed to get the hospital to phone my doctor and get him to write me out a precription for the patches. Good job DH is around or how would I be supposed to go and get them. Fingers crossed i'm not allergic to these ones!!!

    The house is starting to get to me now and i'm trying very hard not to let it. DH's method of house work is have a huge great pile of carp in each room that doesn't belong there and then add to it. It's driving me mad. I've told him i'm going to have to start putting the light stuff away as I go past the pile. I'm going to do two things an hour and it really will be the light stuff. DD has said she'll help too. Bless her. I know it really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things...it doesn't....it doesn't....it bl**dy does:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :D xx

    Argghh - lil-me, I've just thought, it IS 7744 they want and not 7237?

    Edited as I've just answered my own question - the only 7237 on Amazon is about £250 and you didn't mention that amount! ~phew~

    soappie, yes, but they are both police stations so either, I just couldn't get either of them. 7744 I thinks the newest one. They only asked for them last minute, they didn't include it on their original list they gave me, it just said Lego, but then DSs said 'Santa said he'll get us Lego City Police Station' I hit panic! Lego online says they have them but I ordered one and got an out of stock email :( but we have one now, :D

    Pigpen I'm at the Metro Centre (bleurgh) on Monday if DPs phone comes in, will try there. ((hugs)) for DD3, not nice being poorly on your birthday, one ((hugs)) for DD2 and Tiddles aswell. Tell hubby he'll get over it....

    Mudbath, I don't know how you are doing it, I know my DP would drive me insane! Just be careful x
