    apparently it will cost me £195k to bring each of my kids up

    so thats £780,000 (or just over £45k a year..I wonder how we manage to do that on with mrs OJ earning £7k).....

    better stop cleaning and cultivate that mould o grow the cure to acne then we will afford it

    Congrats Tia - that is wonderful news. You do know how to keep yourself busy :p .
    Tag - everything crossed for your DH. He deserves it.

    Worked today so very little done. DW has just finshed and I have hoovered downstairs. Too many cups of tea, not enough action.

    Congratulations Tia!!!!!!!! Thats lovely news, hope everything goes smoothly, you're going to be rushed off your feet. When are you due?


    I managed everything in just over half an hour, but i didnt just prep the dinner i actually made it so it will just need heated up a little when we get back. LO is usually ravenous and tired when we get back, not a good combo! Thought it was easier just to make it now. Will update list in a mo and then go retrieve my child.

    Evening everyone.

    Managed to get my list finished before I went to see mum this morning.

    Welcome to all the newbies.

    pigpen Still sending positive vibes for Tabitha.

    LadyL Glad it went ok this morning and there wasno coughing.

    Crafty Glad the visit to the dentist went ok.

    tiamai_d Congratulations!

    Flower Not surprised you are ranting. Some people have no brains to think that they are blocking someone in. That happens at my back gate often. I usually stick a polite note under their wipers and glare at them.

    Mudbath Im about to do a 60 things while waiting for my tea to cook.
