    :eek: at the perv Michelle...

    I had to remove a child from my group of boys waiting to swim...she was with the school 'before' ours...I tapped her bag to get her attention and shouted to the teacher she should have been with, suggesting they might also want this child...they were on their way out (I count 'mine').

    Glad you're having a good time!

    Hi Michelle, hope you dont come home to too much mess tomorrow, just think of the end result :D. Tyring hard to remain focused on the moneysaving myself but it is hard at times. I am expecting baby no3 at the minute and would love one of the phil and teds buggies as i also have a 15th month old, but they are soo expensive and dont know if i can justify it, although have seen some good second hand ones on ebay. I know i could get something much cheaper that would do the job and i could use the extra to overpay.......decisions desicions :think:
    On the plus side friends have gave us a chest freezer that they were going to throw out! So will be able to make the most of the bargains and stock up hopefully saving a few pennies :D

    Hi Michelle

    Arriving home to mess and the prospect of no water/power is not attractive - so well done for just getting on with it!!! Plus every extra load of laundry now means one less to bother with another time.

    Be good when the work's all done though, won't it??? :D

    Hi mchelle, thanks for the advice on the prams :D. There will be a 20 month gap between the two so i cant imagine being able to manage without one either. Think i will keep checking ebay and wait for a bargain to come up as i dont want to spend money unnecesserally, am panicing a bit about the cost of childcare for two full time children and an after school place :eek: when i have to go back to work.
    Hope the bathroom is coming on well!

    I remember this, we did our bathroom a few years ago (minus any children) and it was a bit of a nightmare! Hope it all comes together soon!
