    Dates ... 15th, 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th .. votes :D X

    I'd like to come :D

    15th or 17th gets my vote, if it's any other day I need to asap so I can try and change my day off work which may be hard considering everyones bloody off in August :mad:

    Not been on the past couple of days as I've been very angry for a number of reasons. I won't bore you all here, buts let's just say I'm lucky I've still got a job and a Tongue left in my mouth the amount of times I've had to bite it recently.

    Ooh whilst I remember I'm a lefty, only one in my family but was forced to eat right handed at school, so now look cack handed when I eat :rotfl plus I don't use a knife to cut very often just use my spoon/fork an apply more pressure!!

    NE ladies - have any of you been to Haggerston castle? Or know of the Haven park there?? I've just booked for 4 days there at August BH :D

    Mel- I have just bought a beautiful dress from here for £15 in the sale. They have some real bargains and the quality is lovely.

    Thanks for posting that. They have some lovely stuff on there and I've just mentally spent a fortune :o

    Guess who has internet access again??? :D:j

    Welcome back :)
    She also asked me, most bizarrely, if I wanted her to stop him using his left hand to draw with. He uses both hands, usually together, at the moment and she was prepared to 'train' him to use the right only??? My brother is a lefty so if it is genetic I guess Benjamin could be too...who on earth would stop their child doing whatever comes naturally to them?
    We had that with James. His reception teacher said it was better to get him to use his right hand if possible, as we live in a right handed world and everything is so much easier if you are right handed.

    He's actually ambidextrous so he can write well with either hand, but uses his right hand more for ease. I'm the same and so is my Dad. I wonder if it's hereditary?

    Never been, but have driven past it and know where it is! Sorry that's not much help.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Dora - I went for 4 days in October last year - it's OK, they have stables there so it's a good place to introduce them to ponies.

    Another tip, get there early if you want to watch the entertainment as all the seats were taken by 6pm.

    Berwick is a lovely town, lots of independent shops.

    Hiya everyone, hope everyones good??

    Birmingham is do-able for me! my sis has studied there for a few years so i know my way there at least lol!! Been looking at train prices for other places too, wanna take my lovely babies on some days out these holidays, even if its just a train ride somewhere jake would enjoy it! Was his last day at nursery today, i feel quite sad but im more sad because come september he's gonna be at school all day... i'l miss him, even though he can be cheeky and hard work he's good most of the time!!

    dates wise for the meet i will know more tomorrow as im gonna be staying with my sis in london for a few days at some point but will find out the dates tomorrow, x

    I won't be doing Birmingham, 3 hours there (so 6 hours in one day) is a bit outrageous and unrealistic IMO :p

    Besides i still need to meet the NE ladies have only met Susan so far :o

    If you click on an image to have a closer look on the right hand side it says delivery and size and fit click on either and it brings up a pop up box.

    There doesn't seem to be much in my size :(
