I wouldn't make a special trip, if that's what you were thinking? It's an interesting place due to the mixed species groupings but not a patch on Chester in terms of hours of entertainment.
We got in BOGOF and tbh I think I'd have been rather annoyed if we'd paid full whack

Oh Thanks Sami, maybe not then LoL, perhaps we should just stick to Chester! Am I wrong in thinking that like the monkey forest some of the animals are left to roam free?

Bowling and pizza hut soon adds up too!!


I keep looking at those bike things and wondering if we will get any use out of one...QUOTE]

To be Honest I usually have one of those 50% off at pizza hut vouchers usually sitting in my inbox and for some reason our pizza hut bill never gets rung up properly we took inlaws there the other week so four adults, J and Lexi (who did eat a salad bowl lol) and we had beer and wine and it came to £19.??
Then bowling at £20 for the hour - still makes it about 1/4 the usual price

thanks ladies. i know i should be going, but i just hate going to the doc and i find it hard, when you dont have like a wound or something to show them that's hurting.

Understandable chick, but do try to find the time xxx

Aww V sounds so cute 3, Lexi has a little ride along truck and also the spinning zebra, she loves them both so I think she would adore the smart trike! We walk quite a bit so she would much prefer this over her buggy!

yeah there's an enclosure with some birds and monkeys roaming free which is nice (but lots of poop on the floor) it's also the rudest zoo I've ever been too have a look at my pic of the lakes trip on FB

I missed how much those trikes were but B&M have them for £39.99 ...

What cereal can I give a baby? (sugar and salt wise, he can chew/swallow/pick up anything - even cold chicken wings!) Toby likes to feed himself dry shreddies, so wondered what other things I could give him dry?

Might get one for next yr at that price! K will need one for his room, its the only bedroom with 2 outside walls (IYKWIM) so gets chilly

OH commented on the shaking and I said I thought it was quite common. I read a NICE leaflet about CS recently and I think it said something about shaking in it? It also said the table will be tilted at a minimum angle of 15 degrees which I think they said was something to do with blood flow to the uterus. (Edit: I particularly noticed the tilting thing because you and someone else had mentioned feeling like you would fall off.)

that was me... that would explain it.

It can be - we'd be moving into a heavily conservative area in PA, which is a conservative outpost among the liberal north.

I remember doing a comparison - I took a million euro and looked at what I could buy with it. With the equivalent in dollars, I was looking at an 8-bed mansion with 3 acres of landscaped garden in Birmingham, Alabama, a 4-bed townhouse in Baltimore, a brownstone in Brooklyn ... and an ex-council house, two up two down, in a dodgy area of Dublin. In fact, here it is.

nice house in dublin!! mind you my home town is sooo expensive.its ex-council houses for stupid money!! but where my relations live its really cheap. with the boom loads of people who worked in dublin bought houses in arklow/gorey and when they have lost jobs have found it really hard to live so far away from dublin so are selling up/not buying anymore, so the houses have dropped in price. the other night i found a new build. 5 bedroom house, massive kitchen/dining room, huge sitting room and utility room (how posh) big gardens. en-suite master bedroom, downstairs loo, built in wardrobes. fitted kitchens and money to decorate for 255,000 euro!! i was in heaven, so i just need to start doing the lottery and win!! or mum to sell up and buy one for her and one for us!!

susan, ss already kinda answered you, but just to echo it's not only in the south, though that is where the majority of ultra-conservatism lies. I have no problem with religiousity, of course, i just don't like how it pervades and dominates society, especially as it's often misplaced. But that's just how i feel having grown up there and keeping in touch with friends back.
Though ur right, i do miss open countryside property for dirt cheap!!

Gisi, glad u asked that about bfing, as finn still feeds loads in the day. We swaddle him for sleep, so doesn't bang his hands on the basket too much, i just wonder if maybe he needs more openness or something.
