    was it sent recorded? Im wary of item not received claims. Had a few and as soon as you say 'have receipt will chase it up', it turns up the next day... :cool:

    No just normal 1st class packet post. But i did take it into the post office to send. I have the Cerificate of postage for the stuff i sent the previous day (4 items), but not for that day (3 items). Typical. Will have to do a full empty of bag, car and coat pockets when i get home.

    Tut. The bar near me had a sign up for part time staff, so I just called and the woman sounded like a right scum bag, and basically accused me of wasting her time because I have no experience in a bar - WELL IT DIDNT SAY THAT ON THE SIGN. People have to learn somewhere.

    Scabby minging place anyways. Saw a fight outside on the way to the chip shop t'other day.

    Ah well I tried.

    Ooh ooh got my eye on a petite star zia on ebay. It says used 3 times and has a BIN of £65, I reckon that's a good buy - only half an hour away from me too! Although the seller has listed 2 of them - same pic but ending at different times and with a diff BIN of £80??

    Hello all,

    just a quick post for a fairy post offer:

    Would anyone like a pack of 2 Tommee Tippee 'closer to nature' dummies? Age 3-6month+. They are pink!

    First come first served! If noone wants them by wednesday I'll get rid of them...

    *hugs* to all :)

    *edit* taken! :)

    Dont tell me they were the discontinued ones... ie £30 for 2 on ebay :eek:
    not much fun is it ... although i still to this day dont get why some bus drivers hate buggys x

    Actually both my bus drivers were ok with me on the buses
    Oh Balls.:(

    Ebay buyer says item not received. I took it to the Post Office on 16 Feb. But can't fine the flipping Certificate of postage. Have sold and posted 11 separate items in Feb, why does it have to be the one of the most value that goes missing?

    I'm still waiting for something from Royal mint that was supposed to be posted on 11th February !!!
    Mum to 2 lovely boys who keep me busy.

    CSH is he facing the right due to the way he is lying? Can you try switching him to the other end of the cot or does he still face the right? You can pop a towel under the right side of the mattress to raise it up a bit. Also if he is doing the same in his bouncy chair, I used a blanket popped under her head too. Don't worry too much, he is still young but it's easier to stop it now before it gets worse.

    I got a pillow from BB, lilia baby pillows (used to be goi-goi) it is just a plain pillow. SIDS don't recommend pillows for babies, but... the choice is up to you. Any small soft one will do, put it under the sheet if you do use one so he can't wriggle under it.

    If you need any more advice, PM me.

    Thanks Tia
    He faces right wherever he is! He just likes it *confused*. I think I'll try raising the mattress slighty, and see how I go from there. Defo want to sort it before it gets worse!
    Not keen on a pillow, SIDS paranoid in this house :o

    Hello

    Becles - no idea what to say really, but my dh can be just as inconsiderate so you aren't alone....

    Glam - Yay on new car. Leave it out in full view to show it off, at least for a couple of hours:)

    SM - Crazy wages, hope you get it sorted(in your favour of course;))

    I am shattered, took kids to school, then gymbabes, then home to give car a clean/hoover while K napped, gave him lunch than headed straight to liverpool to view/test drive car back to asda, then pick up kids and get dinner cooked and J ready for beavers....dh dropped him off for beavers but I will collect him at 6.15pm *phew*

    Well car...I loved it, it was huge and a dream to drive(very strange though, being automatic) so we pick it up in a couple of days:D:D I didn't accept a px as he offered me silly money for my car, about half what I would get in a private sale! I did manage to knock him down £200 and got him to put 6mths tax on (it had none) so I am pleased:)

    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.
