PIGPEN... totally off topic but I heard on grapevine your after bras for DS's GF. I know you said 34E/F so this is a long shot but would any of the following be any good?? (Im a 34/36 C now butthese fitted me when i started out BF)

JoJoMamaBebe - size XL - race back crop top nursing bra x 2 (both black)
Mothercare - size 38/40 - sleep/crop top style nursing bra x 2 (1 grey 1 black)
Mothercare - size 38DD - normal nonunderwired style nursing bras x 2 (black and white polka dots)
Mothercare - size 40C normal bras x 2

All of them are well worn like (i bought them all 2nd hand off ebay as couldnt afford new ones ) but plenty of wear left in them and they would all be washed etc first.

If you want any of them let me know... i know they are not ideal sizes but they are just sat in my drawer at min... The crop top style ones *might* fit as they arent cup size specific and fitted me fine when my milk come in and and i was jordanesque! :rotfl:

I'll also have a look through DD's clothes but i dont think we have much that could be used for a boy.... but i'll take a look anyway... 0-3 upwards yeah??

Johanne thanks but I don't think they would fit.. I think they would be too big across her chest.. thank you though it is much appreciated

And everyone else who is having a clear out.. GF is eternally grateful that people who have no idea who she is are so willing to help out. Thank you all it is so very lovely of you. :A :A :A :A :A

So, Thank you from all of us!!!!

Summermoon pleased to hear he's home and well done for helping
greenbee well done getting those done, what are you applying for? Something similar or a career change?
holly pleased to hear you have heating
AnWsMum I hope you get your bonus but those greenbee described quite well :rotfl: don't!
rosepink I would double check the date it's set up for. It might be worth insisting you pay it via transfer/cheque if it causes problems.
milliejo fingers crossed for you, sounds awful but something hearing way to often in the north east now

I'm in! Thanks for the lists. Kitchens better than it was last week before I did the list so should be a bit easier.

Got a neighbour with an iffy car alarm this evening, quite 'alarming' that until we opened the door to let the dog out we didn't hear it, didn't realise the windows/doors were that good in here lol.

Anyway DPs gone to bed, flaked out likely by now as I think with going away/being up early Saturday he's not had much sleep and he doesn't function well without sleep. I've told myself off a dozen times for starting to get the uniforms ready so going to go get washed/ready for bed. Night all x

Same company, different part of the business, completely different role. Not much chance of getting it, but if I can get through to the interview stage it'll be good practice!

Sleep well everyone... see you tomorrow!

:xmastree: oh the irony - the tree just went up into the loft tonight along with all the other decoration boxes :eek::rotfl:

So my plan is to spend this week (kids are away at Papa's) getting the house ship-shape. I know it is bad when dh clears some space and says "whats that?" me "worktop - well done" him "no, it is a hotspot" :rotfl:"everywhere is a hotspot how can you single that bit of worktop out?"

vanilla - congratulations :j

Can I just check - is it ok to post your list at the start of the day and once it is finished, delete the jobs off that you have done? I am not sure there is much chance there is of me level 3ing so no great big "done" for me...

Thanks for the list pigpen.

oh I actually posted got to do it now!

Having a clear out of LO’s room and have removed almost all clothes to freshly vacuumed LR floor. Sorting it all into age and may even get around to doing an inventory at best but will label the bags by age and gender at least. Better than the muddle they are now in. Will vac the new found floor that bags and baskets once cluttered before returning only current size and next size up. Will banish other sizes to spare room closet if it will fit. I did buy out wollies before they shut . Hopefully I can level 3 the room this week.

Pigen will 36F fit if it’s fastened to the closest? I have a nearly new MS white that I save for going to the doc. but don’t really need
