    Evening everyone....lots of chat today. I joined BB ages ago and have never had anything either. I did receive some plastic keys from someone and emailed them to ask if they were from them but it didnt seem so. Will have to check out how long ago it was but i think it was about Aug.

    My eldest DD got her GCSE results today. She passed with a B. Im so pleased for her as they entered some pupils in the exam early after only one year of coursework and she passed. Will have to look into seeing if there is a chance she can re sit in May to see if she can improve the grade.

    I went into work today to have a chat re going back. I asked to reduce to 14 hours, doing a full day on a Monday and Friday and this seems to be okay. Said they'd check will HR and text me. I asked if i should put it in writing but they said not necessary. I'll go back in April if everything is okay.

    Hello!! I'm in Leeds too, if you need anything just shout!

    Hey everybody look, someone from Leeds, I need be jealous of your minimeets no longer!

    Hey! Thanks very much. I've thought in the past that there doesn't seem to be many people from Leeds on here! There is one lovely lady currently on the pg thread though, Gymfriend, who also lives in Leeds.

    Thats pish Tia, is there nothing else you can do? Whats DH saying to loosing the money?:eek:

    Going to contact eBay and see if they can do something. DH is not amused...:cool: neither am I, but it was my fault I closed the paypal dispute so I'm feeling very self loathing about it.
    Don't get a Loola or at least don't get a new one.

    I've got one and its rubbish, the only reason I haven't got rid of it yet is that the car seat clips on to the wheels which is useful now and again, I've only used it twice since I got my quinny in July.

    Really? Hmmm... I don't like quinnies though and want a parent facing one.
    can i add i dont even know what the loola looks like ... i know its too rich for my blood so dont bother looking x

    I was like that with the boys, but Amber has affected my mind.

    Although tbh with everything that has happened I cannae be bovvered....

    Hi all :)

    Had a very nice afternoon and we're going back next week. Rhys was very good at the knee bending actions and the waving ones :rolleyes: He loved looking around the room and stared at all the little people, much more his size! ;) Really liked the parachute too, both the breeze from it when he was sat on the edge, and being covered with it when we laid him down just underneath it (like a giant version of peekaboo!) :D

    I'm now working out what my ideal working hours would be.. I don't actually know what my colleague is going to say to me tomorrow, and if it is that I can meet with the potential new boss about the other job, then I need to sit down with him and work out what times he'd want me there. If it's going back to my old job, it's a clear cut 2 days one week, 3 days the next so no real decision to make, I'd have to work full days of 0830-1635 :(

    Intend to bribe her with cake.. lemon drizzle, I think! ;) Or, even better, anyone know a cake that doesn't require butter/marg of any decription? Said colleague hates butter :cool:

    At least tea is easy tonight.. I remembered to get it out the freezer earlier for a change! :o

    Talking about surveys, I havent had anything of bizziebabies in months :confused:

    The last review I did I wasnt really keen on the product, maybe thats why they arent sending me anymore.
    Maybe that's why I took so long to get my second item. I joined 8th July, got a book at the end of August and then some Vetroxx surface spray in mid December.

    BM the potty training is going well, too well really!!!. He is doing pees and poos but he is doing them every 5 mins in little drips and drabs, and if he isnt going he is straining and doing his best to produce something. Me thinks I may have gone overboard with the praise.
    We had a day like that when Alice was about 15 months and discovered she could wee in the potty standing up. She had great fun.
