    Even when I have my hair tied up she grabs chunks and can move it so no matter what length she'll have a go.

    I've put false tan on this morning and literally five mins after Isla demanded a feed. I went and tried to wipe any traces of tan off around my boob but I keep looking at her face to see if her mouths turning slowly golden :rotfl:

    I think this is an excellent plan, although I wonder if that will turn it into a long lasting game?

    Ahhh, true I didn't think of that! Solution being to buy Isla a baby wig!! :D:D:D (they have baby prams, baby slings, even baby diapers, so I don't see why not :p:p

    If it happens, can you just laugh it off and put it on her head to make it all into a big joke? My mom wore wigs for her last 2 years or so (cancer) and if they ever 'came' off my dad would make big jokes about it to save her embarrassment (as she was fairly shy).

    I'm not bothered really who know's about me wearing the wig it's more making other people feel uncomfortable if that makes sense :o Isla would definately think it's a game if I laughed and tried to make a joke of it. She's started associating laughing at something with doing it again get's her a similar response so I think I'd spend my day wrestling it back off a giggly girl!

    Tutu for Ambertronic :D

    csh *whispers back* she admitted later on that she only said it to get a refund and left positive feedback for me afterwards. mleh, was a neutral so I'm not that bothered, the rest of my feedback is perfect :p

    SS, when I took Chris for his eye appointment he pointed at a woman sitting down (pointed right at her belly), laughed and said 'your fat'. I only hope she didn't make out what he said, but I was so embarrassed! I dragged him away and said 'you don't say that to people!' his response was 'but she is fat' so I had to explain that he may have hurt her feelings. Don't think it made much of an impression him though.

    My local little pram store had those sunshine kids canopies for £10, so I got one for the Joolz. Need to bring it in and fit it on properly, it needs to be modified to fit.

    Junkies next door are having an argument...

    No it's not at all - most I believe are fine, it was just a bit...icky...to know that some of the stuff we saw may have been obtained by illicit means. Oh well, I suppose if you think about it, all museums are like that! I mean look at the stuff in the British Museum that was stolen from all over the Empire...
    Exactly. We can't change the past and that sort of thing has been stopped so it isn't still happening.

    Someone left me a neutral on ebay saying a dress smelt of stale smoke. It didn't, it smelt of cord, cos it was a cord dress. Is it worth replying or just ignore it?
    Did the seller contact you first or just leave feedback? And have you left them feedback yet? (I always wait for buyer to leave feedback first.) Assuming they didn't contact you, I would add a comment along the lines of "Item smelled fine when sent, buyer did not contact me about problem before leaving feedback" to your feedback and then on hers I would put "Poor communication: complained via neutral feedback without contacting me first."

    I think it's more important to make the point that she left feedback without communication than to argue about whether it smells of smoke and by stating that it shows that you are being reasonable and stating facts rather than going off on one.
    Any question, comment or opinion is not intended to be criticism of anyone else.
