Nipping out to Argos later to get the light green blackout bloind suggested by Sami

I've been to B&Q today too can't say no to 10% off :money: we've got our wallpaper for our new bedroom and I've spied a bed I think we're gonna get but I need to ask about it (will post separately)
I'm hoping the blind looks fab now other wise I'll feel awful!

tara, what's your flapjack recipe? I found one scribbled on a piece of paper in my room when I moved back in, but I haven't made it for years so I can't remember how well it turns out.

Do you like coconut Elle? I love anzac biscuits and have a nice recipe for them plus some other nice oaty ones if u want me to PM you with them 2mo?

Aww.. I'm starting to feel really guilty now My mum is ironing and she's doing all of mine and OH's too - even his PJ bottoms and work tshirts (which are always covered by overalls)! I don't even iron my work trousers and swear by stretchy tshirt tops which I just stretch the creases out when I put them on! I've told her not to, but she won't listen.. I've even just caught her ironing my sleep bra top! :rolleyes:

I've given up with my mum now! She insists that Chris's stuff MUST be ironed and theres no way I'm doing it every week!:p

Anyone know what the best general offer for Mothercare is? I want some of their nursing vests but thought as they're a basic, all-the-time (not seasonal) item they won't be in sales.

I know they had a 10% off everything offer on the other week and they've got 10% off everything at the Baby Show too. Am I right in thinking they do 20% off codes occasionally too? Just thinking about getting them at the best price cos I want one in just about every colour!

If you find a good deal let me kno coz I want one in every colour too! (MFD if I don't like them its all ur fault ) I'm guessing they'll do 10% off next bank hol but it will be cutting it a bit fine for me

I agree with MFD on the photocopying your notes thing I wish I'd done mine too!

MM - Loved the poem! I had announcements for Chris but didn't get around to sending them :doh: I made generic thank you cards for new baby gifts coz I had about 40 to send :eek: so I didn't personalise them just put "Thank you for thinking of us" or something I can dig them out if you like?

My life would be so much easier if this were the case for me
Everyone in my family insists on getting divorced and re-marrying and everyone staying friends :rolleyes: plus even distant relatives I've never met send us things
it just got worse when our 2 families joined coz OH's dad is one of 4 and 2 of his brothers have 4 and 3 kids!!! Can't keep it in their pants those H's
