    I :eek: at the amount we spent on a car, but it was worth every penny. Don't think I could go back to a less expensive car now.

    Anyone on here got in car DVD players for the back seat? think they are worth the money or not? I seem to forever be in my car these days and when I finally move and SS pish off I'll probably be driving back and forth to my Mums most weekends.

    We have one for Henry so he can watch Thomas etc, but we make a point of only putting it in the car when we go on long journeys (say over an hour) otherwise he wants it on all the time. Think we found a cheapish one in Tesco last year.

    im still needing advice on buggy boards please!

    I have the TV in the roof and also tvs on the back seats for the boot seats and i think they are a great idea! we use them a lot and it means that the LOs can watch their own film whilst the bigger 2 can sit with earphones on and watch a film more suited to them. We have the battery pack and in car charger so that if you ever went away or needed something indoors you could multi use it!

    Caz I think I did answer but in case I didnt Henry was 2 in November and walks mainly but we have the Litaf pick up board which he can sit on as well as stand. We like it but it does make our pushchair seem a lot longer but that is outweighed by Henry being able to stand/sit on it if he wants.

    I was tiddly last night :j:D... I had 5 drinks at the pub and had a great time, singer was great in that she cant sing but she makes the most out of that if you see what I mean and makes it part of the act.. I think the boys must have realised, henry slept all night in his own bed til 5.30 and William was alseep from 12.15 - 5.30 so I got a fair amount of sleep and then went back til 8 after a bottle :T

    I'm still chewing over this school and Facebook thing. It woke me up during the night and it took ages to get back to sleep.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Morning all - zombie woman walking this morning, Molly woke up at ten to five and howled at regular intervals till OH took her out of the bedroom. I'd been shushing and feeding and cuddling and quietly entertaining her for two hours (even took her to the loo with me so she wouldn't wake him) and was at the end of my rope.

    Anyway, things I wanted to say:

    Mel, Fergie's birthday was Friday so I think Weezl had a weekend of fun and frolics planned.

    DKAM, are you using the same email address to register your FB accounts? There's a feature where you can search anyone you've ever emailed, which might be how your ex keeps finding you, so it might be worth creating a new GMail account to use (I love GMail cause you can store emails as "drafts" and put photos in them, giving you several Gb of free online storage). You can also go to privacy settings to make yourself unsearchable.

    MFD, DKAM, I'm so ... in awe of little babies grown enough to need big people shoes :)

    Becles, if the head requires any more action then I'd show him the texts, if not I'd probably write a long letter detailing the ways in which I was disappointed by his handling of the situation and pointing out the difference between Word documents and screen shots and informing him that your son said he wrote some but not all of the nasty things and he should probably try to seek balance in any situation then close by saying you're not interested in taking the situation further but you feel his obvious lack of internet savvy is interfering with his judgement and recommending an internet security tutorial. If not then I'd write the letter and file it in my computer to send if anything happened later but otherwise move on.

    KOAG can't believe you're still here :o

    Go Philip, fingers crossed...

    Right, I'm probably not at the end of my list of things I want to say, but I need to shower while the monster is asleep. We have a free trial class at Gymboree today and I am Very Excited.

    Morning all! We have a very strange phenomenon here. Seems that dreamfeeding makes him go less times between night feeds, weirdly enough. I wonder why, as the whole point of it is to make him go longer between feeds!

    Dh is off running a half marathon this moning,so we get to stay home n be fat and lazy :p:p

    Don't know if it works the same as babies but if I eat at night I wake up early STARVING!!! Something to do with the stomach constantly prossessing food, not having a break so always looking for more. I sure theres a better way of saying that but you get my drift!!

    If it were me and I thought I was in the right and I trusted I'd had the full story from my child and I was sure the head was over reacting. I'd just file it away and never mention/think about it again.
    Head sounds like a tit
