    Mel, can you just hem it on the top and let it dangle? I wouldn't hem the sides, too lazy...

    My Asda had loads of pink TT plates for 50p but i didn't get any i got some more weaning pots though so i have a few of those now.

    That's about all they had left though from the baby event, some teethers too.

    Thanks, we had a fab time on holiday. The hot tub was real hit with everyone too....dh now claims he will only go on holiday if it includes one:cool:

    I would only do the top if sewing but they are very wide windows so it would still take ages! I suppose I could put a few stitches in random places along the top to give it a bit of strength and also use that iron on rubbish stuff to the top and sides!!

    Hmmm, can only try I suppose:)

    :mad::mad: rant alert

    My sister just text me saying "Love that im getting kicked out on my birthday"

    She's trying to make me feel guilty about not letting her move in with me. She has had a few weeks and still has 3 weeks to find somewhere else to live but she'd rather text me and make me feel guilty.

    She doesn't seem to understand that we're not allowed to have people live with us and not allowed more than 1 pet (she has 2 cats) and also we have a baby and no where for her to sleep.

    She goes out and gets drunk all the time and comes in anytime between 11pm-3am and then sleeps in until 1pm and will moan if Lily makes a noise and wakes her.

    And she will expect me to let her friends stay round, what she does is tell them i will say yes then bring them here and say "Oh they have no where to stay now" :mad:

    Everytime she moves somewhere she always ends up getting kicked out and i have always let her stay over so she has somewhere for the night but it ends up being another night, and then another night.

    Everywhere she lives someone always has a problem with her and bullys her. Maybe she's the problem if its been in a few different houses?!?!

    Argh. She's 18 btw.

    Sorry to moan here :(
