    Aww well done K! That's really cute. Wouldn't surprise me if Alfie's first words were all food related!

    Eff this. I'm tired, I keep accidentally upsetting people and the husband keeps complaining about how whiney Molly is when she's a wonderfully happy girl and I can't help but snap at him because I wonder just what the hell he was expecting. And a friend of mine just lost her partner yesterday, who wasn't as old as Husband and who dropped inexplicably dead - by the grace of exactly what is mine still alive and will we be next?

    Getting a bit !!!!ed of with BB now, so many folk getting stuff from FB and the forum, its not really fair. We all 'pay' for the same service surely :confused:
    I've only had two things in eleven months. It's fair enough them offering things if they're struggling to find the right people for certain items but it seems like if people read the newsletter and then message them about things then they get them which doesn't seem fair.

    I agree, I get what SB is saying about its the items they can't get allocated they offer online but she did say her friend got a pram from expressing interest on FB! I'm not believing they were struggling to match a pram to anyone!
    Also while on my soap box, if you join the forum you have to make a certain number of posts before you are 'allowed' into certain areas of the forum, ie the bit where they offer things!!!
    I'm just quite clearly in a huff and want free things *stamps foot* :rotfl:
