Now I've forgotten what convention I'm meant to be using in order to ask a question - so I'll just do it in bold!

Can anyone recommend a cup/beaker with a straw? Annabel loves sucking liquid through a straw from a littel carton (we've had a couple of instances where mummy has forgotten her cup!), but she doesn't get juice - just water normally. She drinks much more liquid than normal this way, which is great, but I'm not buying her juice all the time just to ensure she drinks lots of fluids Plus it's not as healthy as water and I ahve no way of watering a carton down.
So I'm looking for a plastic cup version. It needs to have a lid/sealed top otherwise she's liable to spill it everywhere. I've looked in all the shops I've been to recently but not seen anything suitable.

Should I just buy a pack of plastic straws and supervise very carefully?! Please can anyone help?

Found these:

(hope that works)

Did you all read about the girl whose prom was cancelled because the organisers refused to let her bring a female date? And the parents organised one but then that too was cancelled? So they organised a Friday night party at the local country club instead?

The prom organised by the parents wasn't cancelled. They just pretended it was so that the lesbian, her date and a couple of students with learning disabilities would go to the country club and not bother the nice hetero students at the real prom.

Disgusted and disheartened doesn't begin to cover it.

I find that happens too. Not that I've been on it for ages mind

Just dashing in to ask for some help. I don't know if I'm allowed to ask this on here, but just looking for a few extra reponses for my uni project. If you've got a couple of minutes spare, can you answer 4 questions here:

I have to either write a business plan promoting the shop and why I think it will be successful, or write an essay explaining why I think it would fail. Still undecided if it would work or not at the moment though

Who normally qualifies for HB?? If I own my own home and we both work does that mean we wont qualify? (we dont normally qualify for benefits lol, other than the £20 tax credits for the first year and CHB)

My god Jillie thats insane!!! I wonder why they did that

OHhhh there is a house for sale in my street I am going to have a nosey online

I thought there was a minimum award for CTB and HB? The one time we qualified for CTB they wouldn't give us it because it was less than the minimum award. The computer says we qualify for CTB now but we applied and were refused. It's all a scam.
