    Caz, is it your head, back and neck, cold shivvers, blinding headache? Thats what Ive had past few days, now I have diawoowoo and just really really tired. No appetite but am now munching a pear.

    Mel, I would have done the same, men are thick. Mine is making dinner... he moaned that I wouldn't tell him how many potatoes to do, they are baby ones so its pretty easy to work out?

    Any suggestions for who makes the smallest BabyBanz stylee sunglasses? Need some for a 42cm head (if they measured him right for a change!)... :cool:

    ETA: Ohhhh... found these which say 38-43.2cm. Maybe he hasn't got such a small head after all! :o

    Som - apply straight away. I have only just applied because I was earning full pay and thought I wouldn't get anything as not paying for childcare yet, but apparently you can still get something even whilst earning full wages. I should have applied months ago. I think the threshold is something like £66k or £77k joint income before you aren't entitled to anything.

    Hmm, I must check this: our income is less than that, but I was told on the phone that I wouldn't be entitled to anything (though the website said I would be).

    Hi everyone :)

    I know nothing about tattoos, EA - the very thought makes me majorly wince! - but that looks really nice.. and huge! A lot to have done in one day? You must have a mega pain threshold (says the world's biggest wimp ;)).

    The one on my back is bigger. I have about 25 stars from the top of my spine to the bottom :D
    But the flowers have much more detail.

    Elle - It took about an hour :D

    Hi everyone :)


    Everyone above X income and before Y income gets the same amount. I get £10.52 a week CTC, no WTC, but if your child is under 1, you will get the £15 element aswell.

    How much would it have been if you'd paid for it, EA? (sorry, nebby, no particular reason type question! ;))

    I love how detailed the lily is, EA. I've been considering a small frog tattoo, was thinking about it on my foot but I was at mummies' pedicures today and my friend has a clover on her foot that looks truly dreadful so perhaps not. There's not really anywhere else on my body I'd want one where I don't already have one though, so maybe I'm done with my three.
