    Sorry Frod, I'm such a slow typer that our posts crossed by the time I posted it. I tried to speak to the Head but she was "busy in a meeting", which just annoyed me further. I told them- I'm sorry, but unless the meeting is a child protection issue I don't see how it could take priority over the injury of a child on school property during school hours?? Fuming I was.
    I was so angry I daren't ring school after that in fear of screaming down the receiver, so DH rung them. The Head tried it on a bit with the Health and Safety reg's etc and he just said basically- don't try that on with me, I teach first aid and I teach health and safety and I am fully aware of the regulations, unlike your staff it would seem. So.. DH has it all in hand, he rang the education board and will speak to them again in the morning to lodge a formal complaint. He's alot calmer then me, I'm quite placid but I tend to have no limits when it comes to my kids. Like any Mummy or Daddy I suppose :o

    Hi everyone, nearly fell over when I checked the post, my Toluna vouchers arrived! So perhaps a little hope for anyone else who is waiting on them. I got £12 for Debenhams, my sensible side is saying I should sell them but my naughty side wants to treat myself! Have reached a compromise for now that I will put them aside for my friends bday in May, so am counting it on that basis. That way I am saving money but still get to shop!

    Hope your little one is ok sweet, hard to believe staff could be so flippant about an injury in this day and age. I agree you are quite right to complain if only to prevent it happening again - was it a cookery lesson or a dinner time? Surely anything that hot shouldn't be in reach of kids anyway?

    sweetpeas really sorry to hear about your DS's accident, and glad that you and OH are taking it further, there is no excuse for their lax procedures.

    I FINALLY have something extra to add, a childs coat sold for about £9 profit on ebay :D. Still need to post, so will up amount if need be, just desperate to see that figure rise after a pretty poor month for me, money making wise! Three other ebay sales went unsold, will relist with lower starting price.

    Just another quick update..........£10 i made on some NO 7 Products!!I bought(yes silly me!!!) the NO 7 range....night cream, day cream and serum .........2 lots......for a stupid total of £70 including the 3 for 2 discount and 2 of the £5 vouchers. Well, I have used E45 for years(now 45!!!!!) as i have very sensitive skin and when i started using these(before Xmas i might add lol!!!) my eyes were watering every morning. I thought hey ho.......nothing changes and my skin is still as sensitive as ever(wasnt my skin though it was my eyes despite not using it on my eyes so i think it must have been the vapour!!!). I therefore but one lot(which cost me £35) on ebay and got £50 for them with a free postage offer so i will put down a £10 profit!!!!!!!! The other ones i have opened so will have to use as hand cream......a valuable lesson learned!!!!!!!

    Also £2.50 from some jogging bottoms i sold so total of £408.24/£310.

    Thanks again everyone xx

    You can join with a smaller target if you want to girly, not everyone plays for £10 a day, its completely your choice if you just want to play for a fiver or even less if you are more comfortable doing that

    I posted some ebay items today leaving £67.63 to add :)

    Also £5 BP redeem
