    SS - will writing a complaint make you feel any better/take your mind off delayed lunch? Watch this "expert" telling irish mothers that you shouldn't let a baby feed on demand and should get them in a routine from birth! :eek:

    AND now I've had my lunch and am just waiting for the monster baby to awaken so we can go buy a bike lock, check the mailbox, take out the rubbish and perhaps do something else too.

    I wonder where one might buy a bike lock?!

    Hammy, you might be OK... I've squashed them into an envelope small enough to pass for a first class stamp (of which I have 1 in my purse) just depends if it will squeeze through the little board in the post office lol... I shall pop in on my way to the school...

    :A Thank you

    And nice try... But no cigar... (or bag ;))

    :(:eek::rotfl:C'mon - it was worth a try :D

    Krystal - Yeah scabby area but it could just be a Scottish thing. She started nursery last September and must of had about 7 packs already. She came home with another one yesterday!

    Whats surestart? I know my friend got babygates installed in her house for free but thought it was the council that did it! That's snot fair, I had to buy mine lol.
    Can't believe they pay for driving lessons though! Idris has had near 20 lessons, probably, some were double long lessons. Can't remember, btu it costs an utter FORTUNE. Up here anyways!1

    I don't get why surestart should/would pay for driving lessons anyway, if you can't afford lessons can you afford a car? (genuine Qu)

    Because it helps with job applications if you can drive, so the point is not so you can get a car, but so you stand a better chance of getting a job.
