    Em - I started the ring chat because I'm getting an eternity/replacement engagement ring for Christmas, was gonna use tecso deals to get it from goldsmiths but looking at the website they don't have a single ring I like (in my price range) I'm thinking of selling my tesco vouchers to pay for it else where now

    aww yay for sami's ring but i thought someone had some exciting news so boo that nobody has!!

    what kind of ring are you looking for? have you looked on ebay?

    ooh the vet just rang to say my lil moglet friend has come round from his testicle removal! yay! i was only worried about the anaesthetic :o i hope he doesnt poop while he's there cos he's got the runs at the moment and i think its just cos i've changed his food, i've already had a big hard sell on jabs and microchipping this morning i dont want another on investigating the runs!!

    i cant seem to think properly before i post today :doh: my friend works for goldsmiths and only buys from there cos of the discount she gets, but she always says she wouldnt buy from there cos its the name you pay for, and sometimes the stock is very similar to samuels, which i believe she said are part of the same group :) but samuels is always cheaper!

    Em you've missed the point hun :) I was using my tesco vouchers so technically it was costing me nothing ;)
    what it looks like... I'll know it when I see it :D

    edit: I think if I end up paying for it with real money I'll be going to a little independent in town that I drool over the window of every time I go past, they have loads of gorgeous vintage stuff

    Grrr Keira is doing my head in this morning. Refusing to put on her trainers, silver sparkly shoes look ridiculous with pink baggy trousers and not only that, it's flooded outside, slip on's aren't going to keep her feet dry!

    She's such a shoe obsessed person!

    ah but i havent totally sami cos if you find somewhere else you can spend them you can get more for your non-money elsewhere ;)

    i'd just let her wear them, but take a change of footwear for when she gets her feet wet! she will learn better by doing lol!

    No she won't, she will just chop and change her mind on the way there. Like last time! She's packed the sparkly shoes in her backpack to switch into at nursery.

    She is a kid that would rather have shoes than toys. How odd!

    There's nowt else I'd use them on though hence selling them :)

    your a nicer mum than me, If Chris refuses my shoe choice he gets sat on while I force them on his feet and then push him out the door wailing :o

    Ooops - we are having lunch a bit early in MFD towers today, I think I thought it was half 12 :o

    My work are being a PITA about me going back after ML too 3. I have technically already started back - instead of being paid for KIT days and confusing HR (it is easy to do) my manager and I agreed that I would 'start back' 6 days early....and then this week is AL. But they didn't pay me for the 6 days in October as they were supposed to so god knows what is going on.

    I decided to worry about it when I go back! I am not spending my last week with Benjamin chasing those idiots around.


    Elle - how do you sort out hiccups? We just let them run their course?
