    Just spent ages trying to work out why we've got bank charges. Turns out FIL bought stuff off ebay and as he uses DH's paypal account the money goes out of our bank. Which meant the money wasn't there to pay the phone bill, which means we got charged £30. :mad:What a bloomin pain! I don't know why FIL and DH have this arrangement. FIL gave DH the money for the stuff yesterday, which was too late, so I've just spoken to FIL and he is going to repay us the bank charges.
    It's only fair, I've already let him know that his ebay purchases are in danger of getting us bank charges. I hate the fact that someone can go into our account and take money out with out asking, even tho he pays it back soon after.

    Sorry to rant. It just annoys me. He should get his own blinkin paypal account or at least ask us if the money is in there before spending it.

  • Thanks SG... I have a very brave baby. We sat in the waiting room listening to the baby before us scream the place down, then Izzy pulled a sad face after the first one, and cried for about 30 seconds after the second one, and was grinning at the Health Visitor by the time we left! Phew!

    Thanks to everyone for the kind comments about my cooker :) I enjoyed the Spinach Risotto yesterday and this morning I did my first cooked breakfast for hubby cos it's his day off - overdid the bacon but that's my fault not the cooker hehe, I spent ages after cleaning off the oil spatters. At the moment I am determined to keep it grease free lol we'll see how long that lasts! One annoying thing is the top oven shelf had one of it's bars pop off so must have been badly welded together so I am going to see about contacting the company cos it seems outside of Dixons' responsibility cos they don't exactly need to supply a new cooker lol. Anyway so far so good.

    I'm not dressed yet! Been pottering around the bathroom and kitchen all day and spent ages on here. Oh well I'll go finish getting dressed in a min.

    rose - sending you some virtual crisps - munch munch


    Well to keep on topic, between school runs etc I hsve done a washing and put it out to dry - Beeeyootiful day here - emptied and reloaded the DW, tidied up from lunch and breakfast, mowed the grass out the front.

    Off topic, I am stupidly tired. On Monday DS had an inset day so we went to Legoland and walked round there all day. When we got back that evening I went for that run, first in years. Yesterday I walked to school twice, and today so far I have walked to school and back, mowed the grass, and been to the gym. I was going to cut te rest of the grass whilst LO sleeps before school as our green bags go out tomorrow. But our bags are full already and I can buyt 2 more but wont have time today . SOooooooooo there's no point in rushing to do the grass before greeen waste day anyway, sssoooooooo I have decide to do NOTHING and have got into bed with laptop, coffee and DD1 who is watching CBeebies. I am now going to have a naop for half an hour before school. DH out tonight straight from work so I thought I'd rest now as it will be full on later.

    Oh yeah DH and I had a great evening out, grabbed some food at Wagamama and then saw "I Love You, Man" - really really funny, lovely evening.
