    Mmm...I managed to get myself & Liam ready and to Mums house in 25 mins. Someone remind to snooze the alarm in the morning and not actually turn it off!!! Liam was awake from 12:50 to gone 2:30 - There didn't seem to be anything wrong and I think he was just making sure we were both still there :(After many attempts to get him back to sleep he slept in our bed, but I ended up on OH side of the bed (hence the alarm) with Liam in the middle and OH on my nice comfy pillow :(

    Hi nikkit :wave: welcome to you and Thomas!

    Hello nikkit, welcome and congratulations! How are you feeling?

    Did I tell you I'd sent the Adelphi Hotel a little note reminding them that they've owed me £129.50 for a year after their fraudulent transaction? I just found a lovely post here on MSE that explained how to complain about it to the bank (their own fraud procedure was a joke) and have just done it! Hopefully I can have my money back ... and then I will spend it.

    Edit: oh, and I found my late MIL's crystal pattern that OH wanted to replace, but the champagne flutes aren't the same so I was getting all sorts of headaches and it turns out they're still a current pattern and only $10 each! Shipping is astronomical but if we go to the US it's super simple.

  • Morning all!
    SM baked beans in lasange?! I remeber going to my ex's aunt and uncles when I was pregnant with DS2, they have spag bol every saturday and have done for about 16 years, anyway, they put BB in it and I nearly regurgetated the food, it's the texture i cant handle lol

    I know this is going to sound a bit silly, but in the last few weeks, i just keep getting an urge to go to church, then DS1 gets placed into a CofE school, and now he says he wants to go on SUnday, do you think it's a sign lol

    Ok i'm on a housing mission!
    I think the local council here are trying to save their stock and are giving alot of false information to women in refuge.
    I'm on a crusade to get into housing band A as a priority as I'm legaly homeless and was forced to give up a secure tennancy which is really peeing me off, I dont see why I should be made to go into private renting, I know I should be lucky to have a roof over my head, but I do not feel this gives LA's the right to knowingly mislead people.
    Apparently they are putting refuge residents in band B or c! thats rediculous, especially seeing as this particualr one has a maximum stay of 6 months, they expect us to sit here for 4 months beore making a homeless application! then reckon they can find us accomodation in 6 weeks, so basically in my eyes they are dong this so we are being forced to go into the private sector as you cant possibly bid on a 2 week bidding cycle and be successful within 4 to 6 weeks!

    All this lasagne talk has got me double checking whats coming on the tesco delivery tonight, I've got lasagne craving now! I don't put baked beans in but at school we used to get bean and pasta bake which was lovely. Eeek! It must be nearly 14 years since I had it though!

    SS hope you manage to get the refund.
