    Oh yes and I feel like phoning the local police to grass up some douchebag who NEVER indicated and almost ploughed me as I was coming out of Keira's nursery, as he was on his mobile. I even wrote down his license plate!

    Would they even fine him? I guess there is no proof, but mobiles are banned for a reason and you shouldn't be using them outside an area where kids are likely to run out etc.

    T!!!!!!.

    BM, I did that after someone almost ran us off the road just before Christmas. Apparently they only respond if you call from the scene; afterwards there's nothing they can do - but they take details of the event in case there's another complaint about the same person later.

    angel- just noticed on mysupermarket it gives the calorie contents. clicked out but will go back and check for you.

    which formula is it??
    Stage 1 has 67cal per 100ml
    Stage 2 has 69cal per 100ml
    Stage 3 has 70-74 cal per 100ml
    Growing up milk has 67cal per 100ml
    vanilla flavours has 79 cal per ml

    full fat moo milk is 64cal per 100ml

    so not a huge difference except if you use vanilla flavoured which was a Hipp milk

    We both have a current account and then a joint account for the bills, which we both pay into and then I have seperate pots for things like car, holiday and xmas which I add into through the year as I get paid more than OH...

    Thanks SS. Think I might just report him then, he looked like an inconsiderate pleb (I can just tell!) Big fancy car, too important to signal, jabbing on the phone, lying to his wife *Im working late hon* having illicit sex down at the harbour....

    Ah well maybe I made some of that up.

    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.
    I agree - I was just replying to the bit about not understanding how some married couples have separate finances but I guess I should have made it more clear.

    *whines* I'm hunnnnngry and trapped in the hotel room! :o

    DH has taken car to get his hair cut (lol, don't ask) and Finn was napping so I'm stuck here 'til he comes back.

    This might seem like a dumb question, but when you're doing calculations and stuff on entitledto, how does it work if someone is on commission and therefore has a variable income? Like, do you just have to wildly guess what their income might be for the yr? How would I calculate things for NEXT year? I know tax credits are done from the previous tax yr, but obviously if I quit my job or something, that would change our credits immediately, not a yr later. Sorry cannot get my head around these things at all :o
