    Lovely - but unless it comes from fairies or through our wonderful Age Concern shop (the 3way carrier was a fiver!), I can't have it :o

    Are you having one of the other ones that were offered?

    Damn, have I missed both 3's offer and yours?

    Andrew's too small for the 3-way body carrier I got, he disappears inside it! So a cross-body sling might be more appropriate!

    eta. Have just ordered a Sophie, looks like the feet/legs will be small enough for Andrew to use. Most teethers are too big for his wee mouth.

    I have a nuture sling - J was OK in it when he was first born but I didn't like it after that. It's in black and this is it

    I'm happy to send it OR I could bring it along on Tuesday next week and if you do come you could try it out and have it if you like it :)

    If you don't I can offer it out on here or pregnancy thread

    Busy, busy day! J was amazing in the pool - kicking & splashing about loads. Can't wait to start the sessions next week!
    Storytime was OK but the other LO's were alot older so not sure if it is worthwhile - J enjoyed the singing though.

    Nipped into work which was weird today :o
    Have managed to sort out getting my 6 bank holidays and then 4 days holiday so I will get normal pay for the last 2 weeks in May! :j

    J is shattered now bless him! Has fallen asleep on his daddy and hasn't got his PJ's on or had his last bottle.

    Thinking of going on the HIPP Organic Milk - got a sample from SS so will see if he likes it. Hope he does cos it's very :money: £6.16!

    right zoes in her bedroom and jayden cosy with daddy i can tell you my day ..

    went to meadowhall and yes indeed he had been gaven the heeve ho but nobody had bothered to tell him so he was gutted i knew we expected it but he was more annoyed the boss didnt even call him like she should of p45 is getting sent in the post with his payslip he is getting alittle more money but it'll be around the 11th of feb ..

    so managed to go out not over spend actually still have a few quid left in my purse (although i did buy myself a bottle of coke to share with philip but it fell out the buggy somewhere and was extremely annoyed £1 was wasted) came home to find a letter from london council tax apparently i owe them £381.05 and they wanted it in 7 days or im gonna be summoned to court in london ... well it was sent on the 21st so technically 3 days .. and i just burst in to tears this month i was finally gonna fall below 3k mark and im back worse off, also how the hell can i find £381.05 in 3 days i spent 2 hours, crying several times telling these people theres no way i can do it .. so in end the last guy told me i have to pay as much as i can in the time running up to the court summons i dnt have to go but once i recieve the letter saying about the summons im to call up and do a direct debit for the rest ... but means manchesters cancelled, valentines day is cancelled .. i have to save money for london as ive already paid for the tickets but i only have the money for the bus to and from the train station ....... im so gutted i have to keep stopping myself from crying why does this !!!!!! happen to me everything screws me over x

    oh, hun i dont know what to say. :mad::mad::mad::mad: at council.

    I think the storytime will be an 'if I can be arsed' job!

    Tigs - you could always come to the next sling meet in Warrington? LOts of people have different slings you can try out.
    I'm happy for anyone to try my Joey on Tuesday :)
