Well, I called my local primary school and he has to be registered there regardless, even if he gets deferred! I'm so sick of not being told anything by anybody. Better go dig out his birth certificate and a utility bill seeing as the deadline is.... TODAY!

well another hit for my household this morning .. oh and morning BTW ...philip ony got paid £92 we think he got emergency taxed so if he has gotta sort that out which im not sure how .. anything else to go wrong??? ..

We've got a similar problem here (although probably not the same magnitude) - just got OH's holiday pay (because they're casuals, they pay extra hours rather than give them time off) and they've based it on 25 days holiday per year when it should be 28. In my experience with too much tax being taken I've found it easier to get back from the IR than my employer.

I've got the Maxi-Cosi PrioriFix and it is enormous! I don't know if I could even get it through the door, and it is far to heavy to swap between cars.

We've got that and I used it when we got the car serviced because the rear facing one probably wouldn't have gone in the courtesy car. I totally agree about it being too big and heavy to be swapping between cars - I really struggled and had to have help when putting it back in our car. (Courtesy car wasn't as hard because it was five door.)

Jillie - I got cheap Silicone ones from Tesco for £1. They do the job, although I seem to have sticky breastmilk! I found the plastic cheap on I had worked better. But personally, I like lego shaped breastmilk cubes!

I think it must be milk generally as I freeze cow's milk in cubes for when we go away so that we can make cups of tea as soon as we get back and they are usually sticky too.

Home start Lady is due soon, think this might be the last time, I might ask for a different volunteer or give it up all together. She is a lovely lady, but I don't feel she has any understanding of mental health problems. Care-coordingator said I should ask her to go for a walk with me, but I don't feel I can ask that - my needs are far too complex and embarrassing for a volunteer to deal with.

:grouphug: I'm sorry to hear it isn't working out. I think they do try to match you up with an appropriate person but obviously it depends on who is volunteering. If you ask for a different volunteer, make sure you make it clear that it is very important to you to have someone with understanding of mental health problems. If the person allocating volunteers doesn't realise/understand how important this is then they won't be particularly making a point of taking that into account when allocating volunteers. Does that make sense.

Beenie - what about a spashy bath? I don't know any babies that can sleep through being undressed and bathed...

Bikini for Bermuda

*ducks and runs*

Next have loads of separates but most are available in a 6 in the bottom and an 18 in the top.

Buttonmoons

A fly up your nose still alive? EWWWWWWWWWWW, I think I would be hysterical!

I hate earwigs, we call them something else here but the name escapes me right now, but OH's mum is from Singapore, and when she was a teenager, one crawled in her ear and bit her eardrum :eek:

You would just die wouldn't you? Well I would. I think I'd pass out at least.

Scrabble? Omg! Was it a M? Teehee


Yeah SM, his lessons are £30 an hour, and they aren't even the dearest either, cheapest I found was £28 a lesson and the guy didn't even show up!
