    My swiftcover car insurance didn't track. And I have to wait until 16 April to log a complaint. :(.

    Mine didn't with topcashback so I've put a claim in.
    Would you be moving anywhere near Bosherston? PIL have a holiday cottage there :)

    ooooooooooooo That's way too close to PIL!!! (MINE that is not yours)
    Have you been to Barafundle bay? It is fabby!! A bit of a trek across some fields and then down about a million steps but its lush :D

    I've decided I don't want to rent the house cos it's in Chav central :cool: but I deffo wanna move back in the next couple of years even if I still have to work full time. Am thinking more St Clears/Carmarthen way so that we are right on the transport links as I might need to travel a fair way to work. Plus its a good 30miles away from anyone who might wanna drop in unexpectedly ;)

    Becles - Survey Done

    Goodnight milk - I found the HIPP one far too thick for J with his Gaviscon added to it. So we are using the C&G one now. I have bought new teats today - vari-flows again and the milk just won't come out so I've done small slits again but only little. I'm thinking that last time I made the slits too big and he was downing a bottle in 3 minutes - think this might be why he's been waking up cos it might have given him wind. WHO KNOWS?????

    Have a confession to make - I've been at the IL's since last Weds! :o
    OH doesn't like me telling internet folk that we are away in case someone identifies me and robs us :o:o:o:o (he's a security freak!)

    Am soooooooooooooooooooooo glad I'm home! Have eaten shitloads of food in the last week - so much so my belly hurts today :( Jack not slept great in the travel cot but it was really uncomfy despite having a sheet folded up underneath the sheet so ended up in our bed although that wasn't much better as STUPID IL's had put the new mattress on upside down so we had springs digging in our backs for 3 nights!! :mad:

    Been up with J since 6am, 5 hour journey home, been shopping, cooked tea but J to bed, done OH's lunchbox for work and have a load of washing on. Waiting for it to finish then I'll go to bed, in the meantime you're stuck with me :p

    Just in case; I wasn't criticising the goodnight milk just find it funny really that it was totally frowned upon but then give it a few years and the HVs recommend it but in a slightly different form.
    I used the night milk for Chris from about 12mths (it only came out then) mostly because it came in a smaller box and wouldn't have moo milk, he was sleeping through by then so can't comment on its effectiveness

    I know you well enough to take your comment in jest Sami ;)

    I dunno whether it actually makes him sleep or not, most of the time he does, sometimes he doesn't (same as anybody really) but he enjoys it and like Em says, it signals that it his last bottle of the day.


    Choppy (and anyone else going back to work) - we specifically told the CM that we did not want to know if Benjamin took his first steps / spoke his first words with her. We wanted to pretend that he did everything for the first time with us. Slightly kidding ourselves maybe but hey ho!!


    Em - that is the day after hubby's birthday...you do realise that you will be filling his birthday weekend with your wedding anniversary every year don't you ;)
