    What type have you been looking at, SM?
  • Don't forget to look at the insurance groups too and tax bands as well.

    We've just had the reminder through for DH's car £104 for 6 months!

    Oh another piece of advice always select the courtesy car option when organising your policy - there are so many drivers at my place without a car whilst their's is being fixed it's untrue.

    Ha ha :p

    Do you get your mum to phone you to wake you up for important occasions, or are you not quite as bad as me? :whistle: I am mature enough to have a child of my own, honest! :o But they do say you should sleep when the baby sleeps and if mine sleeps until 10am, who am I to argue ;) :rotfl:

    I read that thread that turned into FF v BF, I clicked the bottle feeding benefits link
    I 'like' this bit best
    The mother can go about her daily chores, or to work without frequent feeding intervals or pumping. She can also leave the child under the care of her partner, or other caretaker. In public, bottle-feeding is much more convenient.
    daily chores??
    I'm not sure how (assuming you're following guidelines which mention nothing about how long after sterilising it is ok to use a bottle) making a fresh sterilised bottle up and then cooling/warming it to correct temp is more convenient than lifting top and lowering bra though :p

    btw the debate on that thread has seriously upset at least one person care about :(
