    the dvds had 60% off but they changed it to 70% while we were looking!

    they were £15 so got seasons 1-7 but missing the first half of 1 & 4 cos they had already gone - only £8 on Play so will use xmas money from mum to get them.

    Jack flat out now he's had calpol - bless him :A

    going to sort some washing out & out the heater back on brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

    I went mad in Haddows as they were closing down and stocked up on tobacco, £4 saving on every pack. Sooooo mse...ya know.

    I have the doctors in an hour, She's going to weigh me, I just know it, I'm 11stone 13lbs, It's still not low enough for her to send off that letter to the PS. She said I could of reached that weight within 2months, but she seems to forget I've already lost 5 1/2 stone since last year, the weight just isn't budging as quickly, When I went 2 months ago I was 12 1/2 stone, okay so I've lost about 1lb a week roughly, that's not too bad? I still need to get to 11st 3lbs before she will send the letter off but am I wrong in thinking her expectation was way too high for me to reach that within 2months?

    Plus it's Xmas, time of gluttony and merryness!

    Still have no idea what to get OH's mum, a hamper did seem like a good idea but a lot of what she likes she already has, craft things ( I wouldn't know where to start on that tbh) can't get her lush stuff as she just showers, so no nice bath bombs etc, though I could get her a nice chunk of body wash stuff? That and a big box of chocs from thortons? I know she likes those!

    OH sister had a go at OH last night saying we have more money than her so we should be splashing out on HER and the parents. It's like !!!!!!? We have a child aswell!! She lives with her bf, they both work, dual incomes, I don't work and we have a child and 2 cats. Seriously don't know what is wrong with that woman. She is almost 30 and acts crazy. Here is some exerpts of her:

    Men who sleep with women with shaved foofs, are !!!!!philes

    She was emotionally traumatised until the age of 20 because her mum put her to school at 4 and 1/2 (She was born in January, it's when you go!!)

    People who smoke are poor and common

    Drinking a glass of wine on your 18th birthday is killing you unborn child

    She doesnt like to be friends with ugly people.

    OH wonders why I don't like her? She screamed at me on my 18th birthday because I had a glass of wine with my meal, she honestly went mad, I burst into tears and have hated her ever since, plus she just isn't likeable at ALL!

    Rant over :D

    Maz - Lovely name. I agree with Sami, it's regal! Maybe he'll be a judge or something.....ALL RISE FOR JUDGE WILLIAM GEORGE.....JUDGE OF DA WORRRRLLLDDDD

    Tara - Hugs for DS, must be awful :(

    beenie - YEEEEEEYYYY! At least she came before Xmas. I demand a piccy!! (When your able too of course :p) How is DS with baby? Call it Georgie! It's a sweet name. Georgie porgie pudding and pie :D

    Borders near Jellybeans Sami ;)

    My baby is awake and now filling his nappy judging by the face and noises coming from him! Poor boy does some quite solid poops these days even though I get him to take cooled boiled water. Aw, he's got tears in his eyes :o

    BM - I wouldn't buy MIL anything else, I'm sure she'll apprichiate the thought that went into your gift more than SILs stupidly extravagant thing - who pays £150 for plates that'll just get broken???!!! SIL sounds like a right bint :p When she said that about shaved foofs, I'd have said well ur brother must be one then :rotfl:

    Glam - I know but really cba trekking over there with the boys in tow.
    I'm considering asking mum to have both boys for a bit so I can get the photos for my key rigs done but I'm not sure if Ed would be ok (dad should be home too so no probs with the fact its 2 kids IYSWIM)

    OH does this ALL the time! Minger. I am now doing the 4 loads of washing which he had tucked away in various places - in this house if it's not in the basket it doesn't get washed. I've got enough to do without looking for washing :rolleyes:
    BIL has a full linen bin in his room but I am not doing it - no chance.

    I cooked a lovely beef dinner yesterday but he was too hungover to eat it - so he gets it tonight while we have something scrummy (the beef is scrummy but I might have accidently not put it straight in the fridge after it had cooled down) :whistle:
