    LOL MFD! I didn't go my mum n sis did, it was in Warrington at a faffy time when Ed was still feeding often and the rugby was on too so I decided it was best to send sis instead of me but they enjoyed it :D

    Hmmm, decisions, I want green storage jars but it seems I've picked an awkward colour, I can only find these...http://www.digyourhome.com/p/Typhoon-Pantone-Calla-Green-Enamel-Magna-Chip-Storage-Jar
    ooh nice though! MIL has some place mats and coasters that are a similar shade. I'd try amazon, JL, debenhams, lakeland etc those higher end type places ??

    Beenie as Bruno said I think you're definitely in the right there, she showed something that wasn't included and didn't specifically say it's not included

    Boogly I don't like meat with bones - it reminds me it's an animal! DS can't have any of his food touching - if he gets bean juice on any chips, he has to leave those chips! Is she a little bit autistic?

    Quoted this earlier but forgot to reply!

    My DD doesn't like things touching or sauce with things or anything with lumps. As in, can't physically eat it and would rather starve rather than being fussy for the sake of it.
    I'm sure its all part of the dyspraxia that she may or may not have, jury still out on that one!

    Went to baby group this morning and just before leaving, my house alarm started beeping. It lets us know that the phone line is down apparently. So no phone, TV and internet. Got back around 12.30 and it was still beeping! It's been dementing me until it stopped around 2pm. Then it started 10 mins later again! It's every 10 seconds it beeps so you can imagine how irritating that is!!! Has stopped again now, but think I need to go out in case it starts up again.

    Congrats to Newbie Maz on your wedding plans! :T

    Well done to WM and Csh for being such lovely people. :beer:

    Nice pics Glam and GISI. And well done on the weight loss GISI.

    This afternoon I am meeting my friend when she finishes work and walking round a local park. It takes about 1 1/2 hours apparently. I am praying for rain so that I can cancel! I want to do the exercise, but:
    1) If it rains, I don't have a jacket with a hood
    2) I haven't used the raincover for the pram yet so would need to faff about with that
    3) I am a lazy cow

    That's so weird, I've just got off the phone to my brother who's coming round for sunday lunch and he's been telling me his girlfriends 'rules' about food. No meat on the bone still, no two items to be touching incase she doesn't like it and its then contaminated something else, no 'weird' things like cooking with fruit/jam glazes on meat. And no olives! Their were more but I tuned out :rotfl:

    I have some food rules like that, but I would never dream of telling anyone else how to cook - if someone else is good enough to cook for me then I swallow my preference for a sanitary 3cm gap between items on the same plate and nomnomnom away. How rude!

    What do i do now?? I'm FUMING.

    Happy birthday!!

    I'd open a dispute. The wording on pictures is really clear. Tell her either that you will return it at her expense because it was her (deliberate) mistake, accept a partial refund (£14 is the approx going rate for the basket), or open a dispute. Don't mention feedback in your email because it can be seen as blackmail.

    Mrs B is only a little bit pregnant so far - 9 weeks

    Once the heartbeat is established things are pretty much good to go, my doctor told me. I like the German system much better, you get an ultrasound at every visit and a visit once a month.

    Happy birthday Reece!

    Fab shoes Aless, love them!

    :grouphug: Mel, it's awful to be so angry with a partner and feel ignored.

    I just had my eyebrows threaded, and it was only €5 :money: AND they look awesome!

    Well done elle!

    Must get onto today's list. Can you believe that Germans don't sell mailing bags? Jiffy bags only at over a euro each! Off to ebay...

    IMPORTANT EDIT:

    Yay for Natalie's A!!!

    Gorgeous pictures Glam!!!

    Congratulations Maz!!! Our wedding rings have a twist in them too, they're matte and very heavy. I love them!
