    Wow, seems busy on here tonight suddenly!

    Beenie - I am sooooo pleased to hear from you. Well done for getting rid of him.
    Sugar - It's a cotbed she needs as she already has the crib!! Are you on the vino too? lol.

    Yeah thats it. Just done some basic maths:
    6 x 510 (90%) /100 x 1.9(rubbish rise this year!) = £58 in my pocket.:D
    Does that make sense?!

    You really can get an answer to everything here!

    We were given the option of a 0% rise or a decrease.. you can guess which we chose! ;) At least it makes working out my mat pay easier! :cool:

    The only reason we pay £1 is for the oil: they give us a bottle to keep :) They're great classes, aren't they?

    I really like it but annoyingly its at 2pm which is a natural downtime for me and K so we don't make it every wk. Thats me politely saying I can't be arsed with afternoon things!

    I've got his name down for baby yoga.
    Anyone done baby yoga? Is it good?

    Our baby massage classes are free too. Unfortunately Holly will probably be about 12 by the time we get to go due to the waiting lists!!

    Think I am going to start weaning tomorrow. Otherwise she might be about 12 before I do that too! lol.

    I know, I shouldn't complain really :o Its just we got 4% last year and obviously being a 'discount' supermarket they aren't exactly falling victim to the recession! *rolls eyes* *gets sacked for discussing payrise on internet*

    we are all ok plodding along, erin is a monster at the moment and wants me to carry her everywhere or screams so im usually walking around with her following me crying? how are you? back any better?

    Aw bless her. Benjamin is a clingy b00ger ATM too!! Only with me! He just doesn't like me to leave the room! Although half of the time he doesn't want to play with me anyway - can't win!!

    My back is mostly better. Still a bit twingey but at least I can sleep now.


    Is Charlie being good in his big boy bed? xx

    MFD - I agree, asda has some gorgeous baby clothes in just now! I managed to restrain myself today (mostly), but did get some cute babygros and onesies, some tights that were on offer, and some cute bibs (including a long one with sleeves for when we go out). I really wanted the strawberry dress though! I like the thumper clothes but don't need them as my sister sent me the most gorgeous thumper disneyland paris exclusive set for her for christmas which I adore :D

    Oh that strawberry dress is GORGEOUS!!

    Can you believe I was actually only trying to look at boy clothes because I was in a rush!!!

    We got 5% the last two years running.. That's what you get for the Chinese taking us over! We make something they previously had to buy from the Japanese and they didn't like that at all, so they're very thankful for us... or at least were until we stopped getting orders in and hence not making a profit so they gave us (understandably) big fat nothing this year ;)
