    Sorry I went away to make sausage sandwiches :drool:

    Carrots - white chocolate ones or sugar ones

    Cupcake boxes Hope these are ok!

    Boxes can be expensive but that site is quite good.

    Aless, no you don't go on about it that much but I know how hard I find it after a bad night and Alfie is pretty good so I really feel for mummies who are up and down all night.


    Thanks hun! Those look good. I have a couple of occassions to make cupcakes for and it seem like a waste of time if they get ruined in transit.

    Ebay question ladies.

    I've sold some maternity stuff I found in a box in my room. One pair of Next trousers were size 12 petite. MIL had bought them for me in the sale and not realised they were short.
    Anyhows, I had them on ebay as Size 12 Petite, measured the inside leg and put the leg measurement in the item specifics.
    Buyer has now messaged me saying they're too short, a good 2" shorter than her other Next Petite items and she wants to return them.

    What would you do?

    I wouldn't have refunded either.

    Bl00dy neg the snooty bint! She said fair enough about her not reading the listing re the leg length. But now she's decided they're faded too. Funny, as they're brand new as they were a good 5" too short for me!

    I can't figure out where to reply!

    What a silly moo.

    I've just discovered the view last unread post tool! How long has that been there???

    Thomas wont settle, feeding him again now but might have to take him out in pram so that he calms down and has a nap. Got my friend coming later so really wanted to stay in and get some tidying and sorting done so that I can have a good gab later.

    Have you looked at the recycling sites, like mazuma etc? Might be worth a look to avoid the stupid ebay questions!

    Actually, depending on how many you need to transport, if you have an Asda near you they sell smart price tupperware boxes (7litre capacity maybe?) for £2 that perfectly hold 16 cupcakes. I use these a lot.

    Where's that? :o

    At the top of the page, to the right of the number of views the page has. Go to first page of thread and click on it and it takes you straight to the last post you read. Much easier than scrolling back till I find it myself lol
