    No idea what's for dinner! About the only thing in the cupboard is pasta, but nothing to have with it. Just baking bread right now so at least poor Finn can have something for dinner (have been surviving on pancakes today, lol). Had a random fruit pot left in the drawer so he's not totally nutritionally deficient :p.
    top 2013 wins: iPad, £50 dental care, £50 sportswear, £50 Nectar GC, £300 B&Q GC; jewellery, Bumbo, 12xPringles, 2xDiesel EDT, £25 Morrisons, £50 Loch Fyne

    would like to win a holiday, please!!

    EA - the college thing doesn't sound right to me, i'd call again another day in the hope of speaking to someone else. There are usually a few admin staff that work over the holidays esp admission involved staff

    Its only one person that deals with access to uni courses though, so i will only ever get hold of her :(

    I keep trying boots but they never have any reduced stuff, i even asked if they did and all she said was "I dont know, if anything is reduced it will have a white sticker on, but it doesn't. We do have a small reduced shelf here though" And pointed me to a load of random crap...

    But i did get some disposable bibs for 75p :D

    My sister is coming down tomorrow :j

    Aless, if you have garlic and olive oil you can make pasta aglio e olio, and if you have butter just toss the pasta with butter, oregano/basil/pepper/any herbs you fancy and you're set.

    I wish we had some bread :(

    Edit: EA, try calling the department of midwifery and talking to their administrator.

    depend if you are trying to stop the other one catching it maz - from what i hear its pointless fighting it so i'd probably keep them closse to each other as much as possible, the sooner the other gets it then the less time you're stuck with 2 poxy kids (I think)

    Unfortunatly there is no seperate department at the college. It goes to student services who will pass me back onto the same woman.

    I'll just wait for my interview date and if they take ages i will write a strongly worded letter to them, and maybe the paper too :p
