    Well she goes to a nursery attached to a school, so she only gets government funding, she is in mon-fri from 12:45 - 3:15, so 2 1/2 hours a day. I think it's 5 when it stops? They'd take her till the end of the term and after the summer hols she would start school I presume?

    I got there early on Friday and there was hardly any kids there at all, probably because it was raining and the last day before term ended so you know, people jsut can't be bothered, anyways they were all jumping and singing along to little bunny foo foo.

    I was embarrassed cause she is like a foghorn sometimes and she was shouting out "LITTLE BUNNY FOOF FOOF" and I knew thats what she was saying! Also when the song says "Turn you into a GOOONIE" she's screaming out "TURN YOU INTO A GUINEA PIG?!!!" She is 100% bonkers.

    horrible on the way home on Fri, was lashing off rain and 2 junkies were in front of us, I can tell by how they walk (and it was verified when they turned round and retraced their steps) well they had a rottweiler and it started crapping on the pavement and they were dragging it along and it's poo was flying everywhere and then they kicked it in the head :eek: I was fuming! Plus they didn't pick up the poo either, then they tured round cause I heard one of them say he was needing "sweeties" and walked away.

    That road is littered with dog crap and im sick of it, everyday there is at least 3 new turds. It's utterly REPULSIVE! I HATE DOG CRAP!

    ooo Thanks for that



    I do Ipsos and My survey...

    just been to a friends for dinner. Didnt really enjoy at all. They phoned and said that they had 2 other couples coming round who also had kids so ok to bring LO. OH called earlier and checked and was given the impression that everyone was eating and would include kids, so we didnt feed LO. Got there to find dining table laid out for adults and their kids had eaten chips already....

    Then when food came up it wasnt all that and Henry has had crisps, cheesecake and some of our soup for tea tonight.:mad: Plus they have drunk loads of wine and I've had half a glass mixed with lemonade all night.... right off to try and get LO to bed now....thanks for letting me moan and see you in morning...

    You would think that people with kids would be more specific!! It's never fun when everyone else is drinking. I am sure that Henry won't suffer for his strange meal night though ;)

    Benjamin had a piece of garlic bread and a slice of pizza (minus the ham and pineapple) for dinner tonight, I forgot to even give him pudding!! I am the crap mum that feeds the (not quite) 7 month old baby junk food :rotfl::rotfl:

    Shakira springs to mind!

    As does Christina Aguillera!!

    Not sure what that says about me!!

    I'm not that keen on her :confused: Not sure why as she is pretty, but still no

    Chris has just said Buffy - not specifically SMG, just her as Buffy :rolleyes:

    ETA - Shakira is horrid and nasty, not looks, but bodies should not be able to do what she does, its just too weird !!

    Apparently it is 6 months...but I don't believe in baby signing. There are currently studies going on about whether it surpresses language development. And IF I was going to teach my child to sign, I would teach him to sign proper BSL, not some poxy macaton (or whatever it is) that is no use to anybody.

    Rant over!! I know people who loved it! But just because the government push it doesn't make it right!!
