Morning all. I feel like I could have slept for another 3 hours this morning but no such luck. My legs are suffering from walking so far yesterday, I have a headache and I'm also starving, so might have to have a second breakfast. No bread either, and cerial just isn't quite good enough today. grump grump grump.

I hope everyone else has woken up in a better mood!

Beanie - you sound like me - one glass of wine is enough these days!

Yeah it seems that's right, i rang the ebay hotline thing and the woman waffled a lot and tried to confused me but i think that was the jist of it. I said "well look at the listing, what do you think?" and she agreed it was misleading along with the pic, and to open a dispute online but that the postage would be at the buyer's cost.

That's the downside of ebay If something goes wrong, the buyer has to send the item back at their cost, so they end up out of pocket. I would go for a partial refund to cover the cost of buying the basket elsewhere.

Is the lady listed as a private seller or a business seller. If it's a business, you do have more rights and can claim under distance selling regulations. I did that twice - once when a nest of tables came supposidly to match some furniture I already had, but they were cheap and badly made copies. The second was a multi function printer sold "in new condition" but it had been well used, must have had a notice stuck on the lid as it was covered in black sellotape marks, and the scanner glass had blobs of Tippex on.

Tired. Didn't sleep well the night before - woke at 3am and read for a bit, then tossed and turned but was wide awake by 5am so I got up. Did masses of work yesterday, then decided to watch Bedtime Stories (good film!) with the boys, so I was up till after midnight typing up reports for work. Up early this morning as I'm off to boot camp in a few minutes.

Going to the Metrocentre when I come back for holiday clothes shopping and got uni work to do this afternoon. Busy busy

It's a beautiful morning outside. Really warm and sunny when I was hanging the washing out just now. Have a good day all xx

Thanks for all the hugs guys, she is being cremated on friday, no church service, I need to go to asda and get E something to wear, just gonna get him some black jogging pants if I can, he will just be in his car seat anyway.

On a happier note, OH got an interview for that job so fingers crossed for that.

And my friends had their baby girl, lily-jay (although the dad was round ours last night and he doesnt like the jay bit so he is hoping it will just be Lily) she weighed 5 pound 6oz, we are going to see them today I cant wait

And I am chuffed I love puma trainers and I wanted some for E but didnt want to pay the ridiculous prices for them, and I won some on ebay last night yay £2.70

:hello:Morning. Another one who could have done with another couple of hours sleep last night. Henry was a nightmare to settle, then I slept fitfully as OH was at work. He rocked home 3 hours later than expected so will be asleep all day.

Kindof- sorry to hear about OH's Gran. Congrats to your friends though. I can't wait to hold a newborn again, but I don't know any pregnant people at the moment!

Ladybird- I am soooo jealous of crumpets.

SM- You been a busy bee recently? Not seen much of you on here.

No idea what we're doing this morning. Maybe a wander to the swings then for a coffee. In-laws coming this afternoon so I also need to clean for that and make cauliflower cheese for tea for everyone...nom, nom.

Morning all..

I put Rhys down for a sleep on our bed just before 9pm, then we had tea and did a bit more tidying. I fell asleep on the sofa, OH fell asleep in his computer chair and when I woke up at 4.30am(!), Rhys was still sparko, star-shaped, on our bed :cool: We had a bit of rearranging and all went to bed in the right places but we were up awake again at half six for OH to go to work. Rhys and I have only just got up though

Just got to fold the dry washed clothes and put away the stuff on the draining board and we're sorted for visitors later

Rhys is very vocal this morning (think he's alternating between cat and tiger sounds!) while he's sat trying to peel up the edge of his foam mats to reach his mouth :cool:

Hope everyone has a nice day xx
