    Mel, Surfline.co.uk is Salt Rocks factory store, currently having maintainance but I use it all the time or there are random stores around the country, all Bens t-shirts from there were £2.50, or here http://shop.animal.co.uk/icat/clearancestoreinstore for t-shirts and hoodies. I also keep an eye on the Littlewoods sale for Animal stuff. I HATE white trainers like this http://shop.animal.co.uk/Footwear/MITCH-SKATESTREET-TRAINER/invt/fmwr3102a which you can also get from M&M Direct in cheaper makes and Amazon. But I usually get cheaper jeans, Peacocks or BHS do those sizes, or the Next sale as they are usually a good fit. When I was with MM I picked up some £2 jeans which are a lovely fit, think the shop was called Dunes, maybe she could post some (was gonna ask myself). His shorts at the moment are Sainsburys £3.50 ones with his £2.50 t-shirts but he looks cool. This type of thing I love http://shop.animal.co.uk/Boys-Clothing/BENDIX-T-SHIRT/invt/wr200 but in answer to what you said, yes boys look carp in cheap stuff so you have to be a bit more inventive. HTH.

    THANK YOU TARA:T I actually love animal stuff:) I will check surfline too for when it is back up and running....

    I do like some next stuff, but find it all quite samey so there is only so much you can buy from there. I was just thinking today I will definitely make the effort to go the sale this time and stock up on jeans in all sizes for all three (poss 4) boys:D I also love Next socks as I find nearly everywear else makes socks that shrink!!!

    Thank you again, you are wonderful:A

  • MFD I almost bought this jacket for A from debenhams

    How cruel :(

    That is the one I wanted that I linked to a few weeks ago because I was distraught that they didn't have it in Benjamin's size.

    :cry:

    ;)


    Thank you for thinking of me though. I would deffo buy one for A if I were you. xx

    Hopefully they will be able to give her a quick once over while she is there with you:) I hope it is something they can resolve easily, it can't be nice.

    that's what i'm hoping. the doc i'm seeing is really good and what she needs to do with me should take all of 3 or 4 mins (as long as i keep my mouth shut about how i'm feeling). so i'm hoping she'll squeeze in a quick chat about LO

    Aww sorry MFD! 'Tis a nice jacket though. I saw it in the store when we were looking for someting for A for the wedding the other week. I didn't get one cos I didn't think he'd be out enough (at all lol) in the rain to really need one!

    They have other yellow ones though ETA2 actually the others are a bit girly :(

    ETA Why do the thanks buttons keep disappearing?

  • Right - got to run.

    I will be around for a bit in the morning but I am off on a charity event tomorrow afternoon and evening (hubby has Benjamin for the night). It will be nice to be baby-free for an evening but why is it always for work stuff?

    Praying for clear weather on Salford Quays tomorrow afternoon...I have 40 blokes in dragonboats for the afternoon :D
