Oh yeah, she said "oh there won't be a lot for Rhys to do"... I'll leave him at home then, shall I?!
OH suggested we could save up for it to the point of them booking the flights then if we decide not to go (he actually said that, rather than something along the lines of if Rhys wasn't well enough) we could always spend what money we do have saved on another holiday closer to home. He does try to excuse a lot of thing she says but I think even he was taken aback by those comments.
I don't get what the "you chose to have him" comment was about. He wasn't a mistake or even an accident - he was tried for and they know that because they know about the m/c before Rhys
Anyway, on to brighter things... do you think we need some of these?

hes a baby i cant see him doing very much anyway apart from running around, eating a lot and probably wanting everything he cant have lol!
Im surprised that you managed to keep calm as i think i would have blown up, yes you chose to have him but they are also meant to be his grandparents and not say thing like that!
i like the steps lol!What's for you won't go past you0 -
Right, dog next door has been howling since 9am. Time to call EH again? It must be dole week, she only goes out every second weekend. Skanky cow.
I'm confused as to who is who (MSE and facebook names). I'll be in the black pimp mobile (trajet).
Elle, your MIL sounds just lovely!0 -

Thanks - a whole £1 and a bit extra a week! :j
I officially hate that entitled to website :mad: It's poop
I got all excited cos I thought we were gonna get like £2k in awards but it seems I'd put in last years pay for me and OH but put down that we paid £147.50 a week childcare. Doh!
Can't believe that even with us earning £12k less this year than the previous we will get nothing more than what we get now!A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea
