Oh they have already. Unfortunately with the amount I owe as well as joint loans there is no way we can afford to live just on Hubbles' salary. We have discussed both getting 3 or 4 day weeks though, the idea being between us we would need just 3 days a week at nursery which would make things financially manageable too. Perhaps once the loans are all gone (not that long now really) I could take a year or so out and go back part time when Nathan starts school.
I do want him to attend nursery a couple of days though to socialise and broaden the circle of experience he has before going to school.26.2.19/14.1.19: T MC 3629.26/3629.26 : VM 0% 1050/13876.59 : W 0% 100/1485 = 4409.26/18990.85 =25.17%28.1.19/28.1.19 Hubs 0% £400/£2,977 =13.44%SPC 2019 #073

woke up to this
and a very scary descent down the driveway where I kept skidding to the left and OH just saying 'don't brake'!! which in the end I had to just do and slide down to the road as I kept moving to the side and almost through the adjoining wall every time I touched the brakes _pale_
Off to catch up........"Stay Wonky":D

I tell you what Booky, it brought me back from the brink. ANd did someone mention tights? Did I tell you that story when one day someone caught me with a pair on my head..........:D
Now come on Len, you can't tease us with that and then not elucidate (sp?) any further!! The ladder in my pair is now HUGE by the way, I am not happy, but having worn them today I don't know whether taking them back to M&S having been worn, I'm not too sure now!
Well I'm back and it was very exciting!! Alas no freebies to talk of. I saw lots of people with bags with the shopping centre's name on, but I saw no one handing them out. But Debenhams did have 25% off everything, so with my vouchers I bought the pinkest set of luggage you have seen! I won't miss them coming off the conveyer belt! Original cost £120, with discounts came to £38! AND they're the right size for hand luggage, so should I ever travel Ryanscare I won't need to pay for luggage!
Lots of other shops there and if I had the money I could've bought half of H&M! But it has made the town centre a bit ghost like, with lots of empty shops. But hopefully they will fill up soon and also the independent traders will not lose out and people will still come in.
Alas Luc, I can't see the photos, but your avatar looks lovely and I have to say I'm feeling somewhat broody!Official DFW Nerd Club #20 :cool: Proud To Be Dealing With My DebtsDFW Long Hauler #109
