    How soon after opening your CTF can you transfer it to someone else?

    I put it in engage for the Quidco :whistle: but don't want to keep it there.

    Thinking of transferring it to Asda for their £25 gift card. But eventually i want it in YBS where my DS has his. Wonder if you can do that? lol!

    Yeah, a bit, thankyou for asking :) He didn't want to sleep earlier, although he was rubbing his face, so instead of fighting him I just curled up with him, sang songs (ten verses of The Wheels On The Bus, anyone? :o) and we both dozed off. Only for twenty minutes but it felt like much longer. Weather was nice so threw the patio doors open which probably helped too.

    He's being whingy for OH now actually... shhh :p

    Had this with Caitlin the other day - I ended up making up my own verses for a bit of variety! Anyone for "the lights on the bus go flashy-wash-wash, flashy-wash-wash, flashy-wash-wash" :D

    "wash" is pronounced to rhyme with "flash" not "posh". :o

    Ladies, I have a very little problem, bit sad about it...

    I have nobody to give me away! :(

    Was all going too well.

    My brother gave my sister away - despite my Dad being there.

    It's because we have a step-dad too who is fantastic and has been a big part of both our lives so she found it difficult to ask my Dad even though my Step-dad wouldn't have minded.

    See why I wanna leave my lot at home!!!

    I think a DS on each arm would be lovely :A

    Choppy - what was your prescription before?

    It was -6.25 in one eye and -5.75 in the other eye. I also had astigmatism in one eye, but it wasn't really bad.

    No, not at all. It was £1195 per eye, so £2390 in total. Definitely not cheap, but my contact lenses were £36 per month alone.

    This was with Optical Express and the price went up the worse your prescription was. I was found to have thin corneas, which meant I had to have the Intralase procedure for creating the flaps. This was £300 per eye, so if I didn't have to have that, it would have been £895 per eye.

    he can pull the poppers out of his vest and can get the nappy/pant off quicker than you would imagine, he has no idea he needs the toilet as he could be running and it just happens?

    Have you tried parcel tape?

    Josh went through a phase of taking his nappy off and playing in his poo! I used to wrap a length of parcel tape right round his waist, over the nappy fastenings and he couldn't manage to pick the tape off itself to get the nappy off :D
    Here I go again on my own....
