    Big hugs for you and your daughter Max.xx What an awful thing to happen! And the fact the two boys ran off and left her, the "insert rude word here".

    Hope they catch them and that your daughter makes a swift recovery.xxx

    Well have you all finished your shopping?

    Almost there, even though I have cut back this year.

    What I done, which I'm glad I did, was save any spare pennies, and sometimes pounds (since last Christmas) and this came up to a few hundred quid.......:T:T, I call this my Santa Jar.......:D:j.

    And of course as there are things to pay and catch up on that is in the bank, that is not touched, only for bills/direct debits and arrears as such.

    I am so glad I saved in a jar, it have helped big time.:T

    I managed to get the things the boys want and even something for hubby, and our parents, as we have big families we have stopped exhanging presents last year, as it can be very expensive can it? (for bothers/sisters, and so on).

    However, I do know that hubby's parents have got us a new throw for our bed, and have spoilt our boys rotten:eek:
    And mine too, I even told both sides not to worry about us, just get something for the kids but none of them would have it.

    The reason why I know we have a new throw was because she wanted to make sure we hadn't already bought one, I do have 2 of them but another will be nice lol :j:j.

    Feeling like a big kid now, getting all excited :rotfl::rotfl::beer:. XXXX

    Well what a night. My daughter was mugged last night they took all her money.. Three boys and two girls and she said her two male friends she was with ran away. I cannot believe this. I asked my son if he would have left a female in trouble, he is fifteen and said No.

    She is shaken up but apart from that OK. I think I have persuaded her to ring the police. She did not want to do so last night as she was over at her dads and was a bit tipsy and upset. Hopefully CCTV will have picked something up and they will be able to identify them.

    Hi Max how is your lovely daughter I am so angry that this happened to her and disappointed with the boys she was with I hope their parents know what happened to her so they can instill some morals and chivalry, good on your son though but you brought him up good. Please let her know we are thinking of her. love x

    Hiya hun

    Lol you beat me to it, I was about to ask how things were going for you and your daughter.:A
    Hope she is coping okay bless her and you as well of course. ((((HUGS))))

    That have happened to me before as well, with long posts......:confused:, so maybe it timing out thing like you said.....I'm not certain.

    Yes, almost there, but have had to cut back, my youngest will be 15 in January as well, and my oldest was 21 in November, with them have birthdays so close to xmas - it can be expensive.
    However, I did manage to get the things they really wanted for xmas.;)

    I feel sorry for the ones who are struggling.......its very sad indeed, there should be more help in these cases shouldn't there?:confused:

    Yes Gerry is a STAR........:T:T very clever as well.:T:T

    You too in my prayers hun, and loads of ((((HUGS)))).:A
