    There's nothing worse than a bunch of women. I can never work them out. One of the worst times of my life was standing at the school gates and being given dirty looks as I wouldn't join in on the gossiping. I was glad to return to work ! You're right it isnt your problem . Your better than that :)

    Thanks for the heads up on Clarks having a outlet shop. I didn't think of that - we want to get DD's first shoes soon (after she starts walking that is!)

    They went out and bought identical boots to walk about in when pushing the prams. Sad really.

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    Sad but very funny. Think there's a group of these women that live in every town..and don't get me started on the ones that wear pj's when they go out during the day !

    I don't look at it that they think they're better than you, I think it's because they KNOW you're better than them. It scares them. That's the way I look at it anyway...plus would you want to be part of a gang that wear matching boots!!?? :D

    Turns me cold too. I like to look more womanly in classy dresses than trendy.

    I don't have any girl friends any more only one best friend AKA my OH and I prefer it that way. Im more than happy in my own family life, Im the happiest Ive ever been. Who needs RL friends anyway!

    Hate it hate it hate it.
    The fashion among our school gate mums is dumping perfectly good husbands so they can break up someone else's marriage and traumatise their kids. Nice fashion.
    Michelle, they are probably in awe of your intelligence. Their problem.

    If you've have just got those dam boots years ago you'd have fitted in!

    Shame on you :rotfl:

    grateful -- Oooh I'm glad I dont go to your school! Sounds worse than ours.

    Rats to them all!

    Lovely bathroom :)

    Think you may have been a bit worried about the shoes & sizing? I used to fit Clarks shoes - the size is only a guide & it's common to go up a size and down a width fitting to get a good fit. Hope he looks after them :rotfl:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Bathroom looks lovely.

    Re the crazies - you seem to have the right approach of ignoring their silliness.
