    It sounds ideal Glam, but would OH be able to find work there? Can he set himself up as a private practice or would he have to commute?

    Molly loves computer cables, and she's bizarrely strong so is often caught attempting to pull laptops towards herself - fortunately the only time she gets near the laptops is when she's on someone's lap and we can rescue them. I need to buy a sleeve for my new teeny laptop, it'll be mostly for travelling but as this one is on its way out it seemed like a good purchase.

    How do you see people viewing the thread? Is it a secret!!

    MDW - Sorry to hear about Katie. That's not good! Has she got the bug that's going around? I hope Keira doesn't get it, last time she had V & D was when it put her off food for life!!

    Glam - Yey for Jack getting mobile!!

    Caz - What's benpethan, nappy cream?

    SM - If you can pay the 3 installments, then go for it, better than hand washing :D


    Keira is still being a pirate! I was going to make a Sunday dinner but lidl didn't have ANY chicken at all left yesterday and they can do one if they think I'm buying a £9 bit of beef that looks green tinged. Ewwwww

    I'm trying to get rid of one of our armchairs cos we need the space and not even freecycle wants it lol! I offered our old table and chairs, advertising that they needed a good scrub down etc and 8 scroungers wanted it, but a armchair in excellent condition thats never really been used? No, god forbid freecycle scroungers could ever have non-matching furniture, and the charity shop wouldnt come and take it either, cos they only take matching suites, pah!

    Thanks BM, she's just nibbled a bit of dry tortilla wrap and gone back to sleep.

    I've sent DH to the shop for some calpol as she is holding her head like she has a headache - I've checked the meningitis symptoms and she's being watched.

    Do you have a charity like this near you, Em?

    Em, don't get me started on charity shops! They wouldn't take my old sofa because it wasn't NEW and fireproofed or something. I'm sorry but if you have nowt to sit on, you won't really care that if you drop your fag on it, you might die - that's just common sense (though you might not want the sofa because it's puke green!)

    How's Seth and Scruffy?

    MDW - Poor Katie. It is awful when they are poorly. It's probably just a bug but yes, best to keep a watchful eye. I did a 2am dash with Keira in a taxi because I phoned NHS 24 and they told me to get there straight away, as she did have some meningitus symptoms - sickness, drowsyness, wouldnt eat - then the rash appeared and I was like :eek: Turned out she just had Parvo (slapped cheek) and the rash is actually the end of the virus - I thought she had just caught a bug before that.

    It's very scary!!
