    Hahah yes we've been together for a long time :P! I just don't have a clue what to expect/what to do as our parents have never rented so they don't know!

    I'm not bothered about being spoiled rotten. I just wanted them to wish me a happy mothers day. It was the dog's birthday the week before, and she got a huge fuss made, treats etc. Sounds dead trivial doesnt it, but I cant tell you how unbelievably hurt I am :(:cry:



    Spud - you come in day after day and say how your kids say "hmmmmn mum, tea smells lovely." or how your 12 year old lad still likes to snuggle with his mam, or how your daughter is becoming more like a friend (and an honourary wonderbra) every day....

    These are what makes a mothers day. not a card because Hallmark say so....
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Ok key things to sort out beforehand:

    Leaving toilet seat up - NO!
    Leaving balled socks around - NO!
    Dutch ovens - NOT funny!
    skiddy undies - No, no and thrice no!


    Oh and moving in gives you free reign to wear his comfy t-shirts and jumpers anytime you like! :D

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    well i cant see any major problem with it - reviews seem to be good 8.5 kw is fine for most people (only need higher if you want higher water flow - but then you ahve to weigh up running costs as well)
    Drop a brand challenge
    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)
