Caz i'm sorry to hear that (sadly most tenancy agreements state 1 calendar month termination on tenancies... especially if it's a rolling contract) I would ask your landlady for a written notice to quit the property and go to the council first thing tomorrow morning with it. Any notice to quit the property should always be in writing. Once you have that they will be able to guide you with any luck
It's stressful moving at the best of times let along when you don't actually want to

weezl - I'll get back to your reply later hopefully - madam is being grinchy LOL

.. onyl thing i remember i wanted to ask was Elle -- how many grams of fat and calories per square of your rocky road!??? only joking.....it sounds delicious, and im trying to convince myslef that it would be ok to make - and eat !!! lol

Homemade = no pack = no nutritional info box = no calories! No? :rotfl:

It was a start on using up all the ingredients in the cupboard. When I get chance, I should make fruit loaf really, that'll use up most of the dried fruit (no apricots, Sami!) and I can freeze those so don't have to eat them all at once

Am getting hungry now but OH just txt to say he'll be home soon (latest Rhys has ever been out the house!! :eek:) so ought to wait for tea rather than another bit of RR..

Is she overstimulated do you think? Sometimes when Caitlyn gets like that I have to take her up and lie on the bed in the quiet... Or it could be something completely different...

ETA: Sami, I love fruit cake/ loaf... It's one of my favourites... Next to Birthday cake... And Danish pastries...

And yes Carla, they can...

Ooh, and Glam... How are you getting on with direct feeding now your milk is coming in? Are you doing it at all or just pumping? Is there anything I can help with?

honey we have hardly any toys for seth and he is almost 6 months old now, he has used his baby gym, bouncy chair and jumperoo to death instead really. he has a book, a monkey with rustly bits in, a rattle, a bunny thing with lots of bits hanging off and thats about it that he plays with day to day really, he doesnt need anything else IMO. he wouldnt use them! he sucks things a bit and then tosses them to the side after about 5 mins if that :rolleyes: i really wouldnt worry about it if i were you, i chose to spend more money on clothes and big toys than little toys of course now he is getting bigger he could do with some older baby type toys, but i'm going to hold out til xmas

Same here

Honey I really wouldn't worry about it, babies do not NEED loads of toys, esp at 11wks old!!!

To be honest Kai's shoes will keep him occupied for ages...and give him a sock too and he thinks christmas has come:rotfl: He has his swing/bouncy chair, door bouncer and walker as big toys and about 4 rattly toys. He does also have a cube that sings and a winnie pooh toy with bee on it that shouts things about 'little bees & honey' or some nonsense...it was 99p off eBay and keeps him amused for absolutely ages.

I am also holding out for Christmas, as I have the two older boys birthdays coming up so need to get them sorted yet!!!

To be completely honest I am not going to go mad on toys anyway, I made that mistake with the older two and it is a complete waste of money. The toys all end up being chucked around the room/s or not played with!

Definitely lots of wind after Mummy eats a large Chicken Tikka Pizza!

(also got a GP appointment on friday to discuss gastric surgery, I'm wondering if a band/balloon might be an option)

Oh, and how you feel today? Need ((hugs))?

Mine was butter (about 100g according to the markings on the wrapper), two tablespoons of cocoa, two tablespoons of golden syrup and two bars of chocolate (150g each, I think), all melted together. Add a handful each of sultanas, chopped glace cherries, chopped dried apricots, mini-ish marshmallows and half a pack of digestives crumbled up. All stired together, pressed down in a baking tray and shoved in the fridge 'til I couldn't wait any longer
