    so basically elle they want you to feed him pure sugar :rotfl: he will love it! :D

    i hadnt thought of feeding seth pink wafers, but he has had a pink and white at my nans :o i had popped to the shop and when i came back he was smothered in sugary marshmallow and wafer crumbs :eek: but he did look ridiculously happy with it all so i wasnt too cross. i am just glad i dont leave him with her regularly ;)

    my boss said to me yesterday that she was really pleased i'd gone back, cos its nice to have someone happy there putting a smile on everyones faces rather than everyone being miserable, what a lovely thing to say! i was pleased, until i got home and OH told me it was probably cos i'm such a loser that i make everyone smile :rolleyes:

    we are expecting teeth within the next few days, turned him upside down last night and he has 4 very red, sore looking tooth buds in the top middle of his gums! theres a proper tooth outline and everything, no wonder he has been such a grump! and they look quite straight, so i am pleased :rotfl:

    Sorry Sami didn't see your post.

    Yes I have been on to them constantly....I have been told any number of lies and excuses and finally yesterday got told you have been given incorrect information, you are in a queue there is nothing more we can do!!!

    Anyone know anything about sending money through paypal when it's nothing to do with ebay?
    Sister's friend has got us peter kay tickets on pre-sale and I thought paypal would be easiest - Am I right in thinking if you send money as a 'gift' via it there are no charges at either end?

    Sami you just need their email address that is linked to their paypal acount and do it through paypal, there are options somewhere on there that let you just send to 'someone'

    I did this with my mum through gift...she never told me if there were charges so I assume not

    I literally cannot understand how/why they are in such a mess I mean it's not like they don't do this every blooming year :mad:
    did you say you were writing to your MP?
    if they are working through in order then it could be April before you get yours :eek:
    I'm not sure of the exact dates but MIL said the date they've been given that he'll get his is 9mths after they applied :rolleyes:

    but would either of us have to pay any fees? (It would be more that £50 so no withdrawal fee - I think)
