    I hate the way that they call me to sell me something (that I inevitably don't want) and then ask me to confirm my details!! You phoned me you numpty!!!

    I always refuse to give them my details and then complain. It was only because this one told me what he wanted (and he was from Chesterfield) that I didn't tell him to b00ger off!! :rotfl:
    I hate that too! and it totally goes against fraud protection :doh: stupid bank! I'm always snotty with them :o

    OH has invited his friends to stay with us the weekend of the wedding. I'm worried how we will manage. They are coming from Holland so I feel bad being concerned but it's playing on my mind. He ignored the conversation we had about them maybe being in B&B down the road.
    :eek: is it ok if I call him an idiot?
    I think he needs to tell them that you BOTH have realised you'll have far too much going on and they need to stay elsewhere!
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    I had nose bleeds almost every day when I was pregnant, along with bleeding from my gums twice a day while brushing my teeth, I lost so much blood I was surprised to have any left lol!

    Just dropping in quickly to say hi as I feed Alfie, then we are going out for lunch. I already know what I'm having - chicken, spinach and garlic calzone :drool:

    Happy Birthday to Beenies DS Cameron

    Alex actually motivated himself last night and rolled from back to front. :T

    Thank you :D He loves his bike, although i got the feeling he wondered why he didn't have more presents to open, since last year he had a party so got loads off his friends.

    He has £50 too though, richer than me! And of course, wants Wii games with that :cool:

    Well done Alex :T

    Uh-oh!! Do they know you are getting married then?

    Do you have any friends or family close by who would put them up for you?

    Just book them into the B&B and tell OH that either he pays or they do?

    I strongly hinted when thet stayed at Christmas that the christening would be a very special one that they wouldn't want to miss (had a previous discussion last year about wanting to surprise everyone) so she understood when we invited them. :D But it's alot of people here to get ready and we are on holiday until the Tuesday so I have 3 days to get the cake sorted, food done, last minute preparations and now I have to clean the house for guests, move the bedrooms around, and guess who does the cooking when they stay. And where do I store the extra food, I'll have wedding stuff in the fridge, they have a teenage son as well. :cool:
    Too many children, too little time!!!

    Happy Birthday Cameron. xxx

    The bike reminded me. OH got V a seat for the back of my bike at the weekend, so me, V & L went for a bike ride yesterday. V giggled all the way round so i'm guessing it's a hit. :rotfl:

    Beenie - you'll have to get yourself one now. :D

    Happy birthday Cameron!

    They're like tiny tumblers, Sami.

    Tara, I'd suggest the B&B for them and remind your OH that there's a lot of work to be done and he's being a willy head.

    That calzone sounds fabulous.
