    Oh, I just got an email from BizzieBabies with a questionnaire to complete on the vest I'm supposed to be testing.. But I haven't received the vest yet! :( Should I have?

    did they ask you what size/colour you wanted? that's what they did for me n caz, then sent us a bra instead :rotfl:
    best email them to say you've not had it x

    Hi elle :)

    we did have a good time, thanks, got another tooth and chicken pox under our belts, so all's good. It's taken me since sat to read what you've all been up to!!!!

    Congratulations to emlou :T:T:T

    and well done to caz, the job sounds great :)

    I'm sure there were other things I should mention, but they escape me for now!

    Do you all have those baby activity walkers on wheels? If so how useful do you find them and from what age?

    Lots of love, Weezl xxx

    Sami, yup, posted it because I had to complete the form for my first claim.

    How long do we leave it until phoning? I think it might have said two weeks in the notes but I've got Rhys asleep on my chest at the mo so can't get up to find them.

    When they say "by three months old", so they mean calendar months or 12weeks? :confused: Rhys was 12 weeks yesterday but is three months next Monday. If I've not got anything in Thursday's post I suppose I'd better phone them on Friday so I don't miss out on it being backdated!
    not a clue, sorry. I don't remember sending anything off ever, did you have to send any other paperwork? I have a feeling that we phoned them with a question and they said we could do it all over the phone :confused:

    You might find tax credits just start paying money into your bank before you receive any notification from them... That's what they've done with me a couple of times now...

    My scanner just arrived... Think I need to pull the TV cupboard out to get to the phone socket though so might leave that for hubby to sort out when he gets home...

    My dolls house sold for a grand total of £6.05 on eBay last night and the woman's coming to fetch it today at 3:30... Trying to get my hall looking tidy before she gets here... Don't want her thinking we live in a hovel... Even if we do :p
    (Am also hoping I'll find Aimee's box of ponyvilles under the stairs... They've been MIA since my brothers wedding in March and she only got most of them for christmas...)
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...

    Nope, nothing else. I phoned and said I'd like to make a new claim, and the person said "Okay, I'll send you a form" :confused: I suppose at least if I can do it over the phone and they haven't got it logged by Friday, I can do it all from scratch there and then :)

    ooh busy holiday for you then!
    Did you see my post about activity cubes? if not I'll find it for you :)

    We had a walker on wheels :shhh: don't tell 'them' ;) we kept/keep it at MILs as not enough room for it to be useful here, but chris loved zooming around it it, plus MIL has wooden or tiled floors throughout downstairs so when Chris was dooing the 5 steps, fall, 5 steps, fall thing it was safer for him to be in it there! not a clue how old he was though!
