    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    This was great timing since the previous few minutes had seen me get drenched in projectile baby diahorea. As you know fergus needs a hand excavating his poos. The beginning bits are so impacted. He then let rip with a huge arc of liquid gold, which travelled across the kitchen, all down my leg and also splatted the front of the kitchen cupboards!!!!

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm sorry, that shouldn't be funny. I'm wearing pajama bottoms cause of two separate body-fluid incidents on my two pairs of trousers that fit. Have to go out later so holding my last pair in reserve :rotfl:

    That's still an excellent budget, I'm so in awe of your MSE skills :)

    Glad it got there Sami :) Would be great to see a picture when it fits!

    I've just ordered my Joey Sling - christmas present from OH. Pelvis/Back is getting worse and I can't hold Toby for long, but he is okay in a sling so I thought I'd treat myself!

    Homestart lady was nice, Toby likes her. She will entertain him while I get jobs done around the house.

    Saw a couple of Mums today, and invited them round here next week, which is a big step.
    Stay-at-home, attached Mummy to a 23lb 10oz, 11 month old baby boy.

    I ordered the spinny toy from Amazon - my baby's dreadfully spoiled but it doesn't count if it's all educational and MSE, right??

    A book for Husband fell into my basket too. Ooops.

    Mine were spoilt rightup to school age. Some would argue they still are, but who cares anyway. Just hope little one enjoys it :)
    god my company is poo to all yours :( x

    I once got a £5 voucher for Argos for my Xmas bonus.

    Shouldn't complain, the next job gave me nothing and the current job doesn't either.
  • I notice from this weeks MSE e-mail, that buying the Sunday Telegraph for £1.90 gets you a £5 discount voucher for The Body Shop.

    Do you think if we say bought four, then four of us went in seperately and bought small gifts and put them together as a little giftset, it would work?

    Does anyone have any Body Shop recommendations or avoidations?

    That would work MOTM, I'm intending to do the same to get my mums Xmas presents.....I'm getting her the vanilla perfume, it's very nice, if you like vanilla!

    Also Saturday telegraph has a free voucher for Phase 8 and you get a free scarf worth £20. That's OH's mum gift sorted :rotfl:
