    I live near EA so it'll be what she said!

    I'll see if I can sort the car service out before then, would be happy to give EA a lift up too if Lily's car seat fits my car, and if she doesnt think its weird!!

    I wouldn't think its weird :p

    Her car seat fits most cars, its a simple one with a strap in :)

    Googlemaps say it takes about 3 hours in the car.

    GISI - But its alot of money :(

    GISI, I know I cant afford £130 on train fare, I could have my car sorted and fill the tank enough to get there for that money :/

    EA - which website are you looking at for the trains? I've just looked on www.thetrainline.com and it's £15.50 one way any Portsmouth to Birmingham New Street - it does involve 2 changes and 4 hours though

    Could you employ Martin's suggestion of buying the tickets in stages? Would that make it any cheaper?

    Apparently if you give a child a tube to look through, they hold it up to their dominant eye which would tell you if they're left or right handed...

    I never have any plans to important to change... Could take Aimee to think tank while we're there...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.
