    I usually just smell cream and if it smells okay I get OH to taste a little bit to make sure.

    Mmm looking at it I dont think there is enough for my pasta anyway plus I was going to use it till tomorrow so might be better getting a fresh pot I think...

    Hammy- Antilop I'm getting one. I hate my highchair now. I've decided its too recliney and encourages him to slouch. He was an an upright Antilop type in a restaurant and he sat up nice and straight in it. I had a similiar thing to the Antilop when DD was a baby and should have known just to get it again!

    OH has managed to get another day of home office. I'm pleased to have him here, but my plans today included wrapping his birthday presents and I can't do that while he's at home. And I'd have gone to my office early and dealt with the department that closes for the day at 10am.

    Still, since my ever-relapsing cold is making a reappearance it's probably a good thing. Must clean the living room a bit, I have a friend coming over this afternoon and Molly's nudey-buff-time towel is spread out on the floor.

    If one person has debts or a bad credit record then it is best to keep all financial products separate. Also some people find that they can jointly manage the money between them better if they have separate money.


    I don't think theres anything wrong with having separate financial products.
    I think there is something very wrong when one half of a couple is siting with nothing after paying out for essentials and the other half of the couple has fags and drink and money to waste.

    Question for Tia or anyone else who may know!

    Kieren has started sleeping with his head to the right every night and its starting to go abit flat.
    Should I put some rolled up muslins at the right side of his head when hes sleeping to encourage him to lie to the left and even it out??

    Anyone know how long car tax refunds take? DH applied ages ago and we haven't heard a peep. Just had to fork out to tax the replacement car and was hoping to have the refund to pay for it by now!!

    I got one a few weeks ago, dvla are so slow these days!! think it took about 2-3 weeks altogether, i had to apply for a replacement log book a while ago they took the money out quick enough but took them about 6 weeks to post the thing, i couldnt tax my car in time cos if it!!!

    Morning everyone, hope everyones ok?

    beccles yay for getting in the school, i think we hear soon about jakes primary school, im sooo nervous!!!

    SM, have you spoke to your boss again yet? i wonder if its anything to do with them mixing up how long maternity leave you got, u remember when they were only giving you 31weeks or something originally, i think you should tell them the bank charge is more as well get yourself a bit extra!!

    JM its because they've changed over the way they pay the wages (the company pays them now rather then a 3rd person) and instead of being paid as BACS they're paid by CHAPS .. which i have been told it should (i say could) be in by the latest 3pm this afternoon (well thats what the boss has said) but im going down later .. plus they said they'd pay back any charges x
