    Morning all..

    I was woken up by our 60-odd year old neighbour, wearing snow boots and big furry hat, who is calling round the whole street checking everyone is okay and if they need any shopping, bless her! :D:o

    Nothing much going on here today. Plan was to go to town to pick up Boots order but I'm not going out in six inches of snow :(

    The friend request box has a little blue line that says Add a personal note. Click it and type away :)

    Easiest way is when you send a friends invite, you have the option of adding a personal message/text - just say "it's CSH from MSE!" :)

    Good job i opted to stay in bed this morning, school was shut anyway but it looks like they didn't update til after i'd have normally set off :D

    SS i looove the chopsticks piccy of Molly on facebook, she's a genius :rotfl:

    Just got my tax credits award in (didn't think they'd do it til Child benefit was claimed?) she's not even been registered yet. I had no idea the CTC would double for the 2nd child, and even more so for being under 1, so very happy with that.

    Think i'll now be able to start putting enough aside for December, everything expensive seems to happen then for me. Christmas, Amber's birthday, Car MOT (< owwie) Car Tax... So i neeeeed to start planning my money properly, although not as well as SM i'm not that organised :D I have a spreadsheet which sees me through a few months but not a year :eek:

    Morning,

    Been lurking a bit whilst feeding and entertaining Holly. Now being a bad mummy as she is watching Baby TV and laughing away at it whilst I am having some Coco Pops. Going to drag myself out today and meet my friend for a lunchtime curry. As long as I can get the car up the hill.

    Whoever was saying about the bouncy chair being like a toilet, it's the same here, so my thinking is that I will shake a "jobby" out of her before we go out. She normally only does 1 per day, but they are messy! It's no coincidence that the bouncy chair is a Winnie the "POO" one. ;)

    There is a list of user names on the MSE Gossiping Girls/Guys page thing in MM/SM/Sami's signatures, but it's not got everyone on it. Not sure if it's the same as the one Ladybird has.
