I think there may be some money off in the Boots Machine at the moment *she said vaguely*

Trouble is the bloody machines at the boots on the local retail park are either out of order, or refuses to read my card. Its works in the chip and pin thing, but the Boots machines can't "see" it. Have points to collect, but can't get them. Cue me to contact boots for a replacement.

I need a replacement too - mine is still in my maiden name and it has a worn down edge where someone used it to strip wallpaper :whistle:

becles - what a pain. I'm having that problem with shorts. Either they show your bum to the world or they are past my knees. No inbetweens to be found so I have given up!

ss - hugs to hubby. Hope he's better soon

MFD - a brain scan for Mr MFD? I hope he's alright and the scan goes well when he gets it. Sounds worrying.

Thought I'd pop in and tell you all that we have made great progress on the sleeping front. Annabel has got the message and now goes to sleep really uickly with minimal fuss. Daytime naps are harder, but we've been firm and it's definitely paying off now. AF - if you are lurking *hello* and while I think this is working for us, the biggest thing for me was 'instinct', in that I knew that she was ready in herself. She's definitely not been before the last week or so, and I would say that I've been led by her to an extent. All of a sudden we had a change in atmosphere from wanting cuddles to actually just taking the proverbial with us! So ahng in there and the time will come for your LO too. Eeeek

Apart from that the big event today is that I'm looking after my friends LO this afternoon. I'm picking him up from nursery at 5ish and I have to say that all of a sudden I'm a bit nervous! Its a 5 min walk from my house and he knows me well and his mum will be back within an hour of me collecting him, so I shouldn't be really - but its the first time I'll be in charge of 2 children all on my own

Oh and sainsburys emailed to let me know about their nappy offers - the best value on pampers active fit I've seen for a while - 2 packs for £13.50 (size 4+ pack has 48 nappies in it). Currently 2 packs for £16 in both tesco and boots.

My advantage card often gets used to scrape ice off the car windscreen - oops!

WM - I have 2 £1 off pampers active fit from the boots parenting club if you would like them tomorrow.

Tia - Glad Christopher enjoyed big school

Becles - sorry you didn't have a successful day. Hopefully you'll be able to release some of the tension at boot camp

Ooo - Somewhere I have a £2.50 off Pampers Nappies till voucher thingie from Sainsburys.


Hubby had a bit of a scare a couple of weeks ago - they think it was viral and the brain scan is to check that [STRIKE]he has one[/STRIKE] [STRIKE] it isn't the size of a pea[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]it isn't entirely dominated by work[/STRIKE] he is okay

Have seriously depleted the nappy and wipes stock and as it's payday, its time to go stock up. Think it will have to be boots, as i just lurrve my boots points. But how come, there are no money off vouchers in my purse, when i know i have some?

Cant access my spreadsheet from work so cant tell you if they are cheapest at the moment but if I remember they are.....think tesco were better for pampers wipes though and of course the huggies BOGOF

Becles, these are the bottoms and the top I got, and they were 3 for 2 so I got a sarong as well :money:

There's a hibiscus one with high waist shorts too.

WOOHOO for Chris gload he had fun and thats great that the other kids were also signing with him!!! the fairies arrived today and thank you! not had a look yet but will later on!

Beccles hope your ok! i have had days shopping like that and its awful what a monkey C is though!

SS hope your OH gets well soon!

Had a busy day at the nursery today, OCT did not show though and it was the main reason for me going? We have booked the big meeting for 22nd June eeeekkk where everyone who has been involved with Charlies care will attend and discuss his final diagnosis. The key worker is thinking it will be ADHD with aspergers issues mainly sensory. Feel like i have had a weight lifted from my shoulders and the first time ina while feel better knowing. Have a speech therapy assessment on thursday to attend but i think i will arrive at the end of play before the meeting as he seems to play up more when im around amd he really doesnt like Erin being there?
sorry for the ramble but good news for once!
