    Awwwww, that is lovely....are you definitely going to put Benjamin with her?

    Mel x

    It depends what hubby thinks when we go and see the whole family tomorrow night - fingers crossed he likes her.


    We are having another up and down the stairs night with Benjamin standing up in his cot :rolleyes: I refuse to be beaten by this, he just needs to realise that bedtime is not a standing-up occasion.

    Thank god hubby will be doing it tomorrow night!!

    MFD - That childminder you got sounds fabulous. I want one for Keira even though I don't work! Lovely that her kids adore him too, I always get an inner flush when a child crys because your taking your one away :D Means they are super awesome.

    Just making chilli, my mouth is so soooore, my glands hurt, you know when swallowing and my ear hurts? I better not be away to get another ear infection, I am prone to them in one ear because of a toy elephant bead I had apparently poked in my ear when I was a kid. So if you ever meet me and I say "eh eh eh" you know it's just cause im a bit deaf lol

    Thought you just got an iphone!

    I want t'internet on my phone - only an extra £5 a month BUT I want a flashy new phone! Might have to see when my contract expires!
    I currently get 500 units (mins or texts) 300 3 to 3 mins for £17.50

    *off to look at phone deals* but have a snealy feeling my contract has another 6 months on it :(

    I'm fed but Jack is still asleep - he was awake from 8am to 4pm so I think he deserves a little rest! But I just made his bottle so am keeping it hot until he wants it.

    Weezl - Does DH have the choice of opting into new pension scheme?
    I believe that on the old scheme they base your pension on the last 3 years of service so you are penalised if you start winding down as most people do when they get to the late 50's. However, in the new scheme they work it out using the BEST 3 years of your last TEN years therefore one can work hard until 54 and then reduce hours without it affecting pension.

    If he's a member of the old scheme he can, but if not, only if he's an NHS employee :(
