Oooh lovely, that will be nice for you all - I would imagine the food there may cost quite a bit if you eat in their restaurants but if you are staying self-catering you could save quite a bit by buying in the supermarkets and cooking/eating in your chalet.

I hope it is, i`ve heard bad things about Butlins but as long as the lil uns enjoy it
We are going self catering and are going to take what we have at home, so we wont need to buy anything extra.
It is my DD`s 4th birthday while we are there too which will be nice for her and as a suprise we booked a skyline party pack for her.

Had such a bad toothache all week on a tooth i have been backwards and forwards to the dentist about since oct 2009!!
Had nerve out, root canal treatment in november, Tooth then crumbled in December so had a cap put on and now in agony. Contacted dentist and told by receptionist `i couldnt possiblly be in pain as the nerves had been removed` :mad: She gave me an appointment for next week!! My mum called and got me an appointment yesterday and i have a Tooth abscess :eek:
On Antibiotics until next thursday and then got to go and have tooth out!
I asked for this when this first happened in Oct :rotfl:

ANYWAY....Holiday - paid! Yearly Car tax - paid! Monthly bills - paid! NO spare for savings Maybe next month.

We called the LA yesterday and we didnt get the house, came top 5 as usual! SO next bid will be next Friday, hopefully there is something for us to bid on.
It is getting tough every time we hear the words `no` so difficult. Our parents are very supportive and do pick us up a bit.

Poor you - hope the tooth feels better soon. I will keep my fingers crossed on the house front for you - my friend waited a while but finally got hers last month - am sure you will get there!
Carboots dont start till after easter here too - but love having a good rake around them. I must list what I have on ebay before I buy more stuff tho.

My tooth is feeling a little better so hopefully the antibiotics are kicking in now. I think tooth ache is the worst thing to have!
My 2 have had a sickness bug too which has brought sleepless nights, and having toothache and tiredness is a big no no lol!

Thats reassuring to know about your friend I am hopeful it will be this year as we are coming top 5 now in the list!x

Hey Sj,

Whoohoo Im sure you cant wait for your wee break away, the little uns will love it!! You and hubby will enjoy the break 2. Gosh that abcess sounds nasty, you poor thing, has it calmed down any now? Sorry to hear you didnt get the house but ill keep my fingers crossed something comes along soon!

Have decided and talked my mum into doing a car boot, they dont start until April here so plenty of time to prepare!! Am looking around wedding reception venues next week, so have started to budget now for that, when will I ever have money to myself..lol xx

Dh`s parents popped in to see us today on their way home, we see them about once a month as they live in norfolk.
They have offered us a free little holiday this year:j
They are going away and have asked if we would like to stay in their house for the week! This is a fantastic opportunity it is close to the beaches and is a beautiful house - perfect for summer!

Had a letter delivered by hand from the LA our rent has increased, not by much, but the extra £6 a month makes me angry as we shouldn t even be living in these cramped conditions. Funny enough houses we have been bidding on are cheaper then this pokey flat

Off to have a spring clean of the lounge tonight and then relax ready for a busy week.
Here is a goodbye to Feb 2010 and a welcome to March 2010. I seem to be wishing time/life away and tbh it is flying by!!x

I really hope we do especially the kiddies i am really looking forward to it now despite having doubts at first.
Gosh that abcess sounds nasty, you poor thing, has it calmed down any now? Much better then it was, still very sore but on the mend.
Sorry to hear you didnt get the house but ill keep my fingers crossed something comes along soon! Thank you hunni

Aww goodluck with finding a venue, haggle and try for a bargain
I was a bridezilla when we got married lol! I think everyone grew to hate me during the planning hehehe x

Oh nice one! Thats fantastic, if you get the right weather it will be lovely! Thats a disgrace increasing the rent, not even worth it when the bigger places are cheaper, how do they get away with things like that? I know, I can hardly believe where the time is going, Im wishing time away as well, wish it was my wedding this year, that I would be debt free and that I would have a house bought by now..lol Ah well I cant have everything I suppose..lol x
