    I've put a wash on, emptied and re-filled the dish woosh and washed 5 pans - exhuasted now :rotfl:

    wow! That's super-organised of you! For the boys, I have some books which the fairies can send.... Mel, this also applies to you for your older 2 cos I know things are feeling tight financially for christmas your end...

    goes to look at the titles...

    eta: frustrating about DH breakfast!

    That is very, very kind....I am not sure I can accept though, my fairies are too poor to reciprocate and I would feel funny:o
    I think they are receiving a ok sum of money off 'others' so things (for them) might be fine:cool:

    I think he might have self-esteem problems.. he's lying under his play gym, muttering "oooggglie boo" while looking at himself in the mirror! :rotfl:
  • Thanks Elle - we were meant to go up and see her last weekend, but htere was a bug going round the care home so no visitors. We postponed till Wednesday, and I'd taken time off and everything. Now will have cancelled that day off to take today and tomorrow (and funderal day whenever that ends up being) off instead :(

    But yes, at least she got to meet Izzy a few times, and we have some good pictures. We also have her pictures of her parents wedding and of her grandad (and her own piccies too - will have to get a load scanned and shared when I get around to it ... and backed up for posterity)

    Hi girls

    Just dropping in while I have 5 mins spare to ask you to support my campaign to get M&B magazine to honour their promise of a "free toning bust treat for every reader"

    In November's edition of M&B there was a giveaway of a "free toning bust treatment for every reader". Take a look at p122 for more details.
    Around 70,000 people read M&B, but only 250 samples are available for the giveaway. Everyone else gets a £10 voucher to spend on Mama Mio's website, but Boob Tube (the cream in question) is £28. How is this free for every reader?

    If you signed up for the offer please join this Facebook group http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=191592486572 . Please feel free to link to other forums you use. We only want people who legitimately signed up for the offer (which closes today 30 Nov) to join the group.

    I have brought this issue to the attention of Miranda Levy, editor of M&B as the promotion appears to contravene a number of the Advertising Standards Agency's guidelines. At the very least it's dishonest to claim that "every reader" will get a sample of the cream.

    Personally I used to think of M&B as a magazine I could trust, I even had a subscription. I'm really disappointed that it appears to have abused that trust with such an obviously misleading promotion. I'll wait to see what the response is before deciding whether that trust can be won back again.

    Hope you're all well, sorry I don't get chance to post properly these days :-(

    Aw - just had a big bunch of flowers delievered for my assistant because she has been working so hard whilst I have been off and in the run up to the awards ceremony this week! I am such a luvverley boss :D

    Have also demanded that she leaves work at 4.30pm, rather than the normal 5.30pm for as many days as humanly possible between now and Xmas!

    Hi Lu! How are you and the LOs? :)

    I did mention this offer on here too so some of you might have signed up without the mag, in case that jogs anyone's memory :)
