    That sounds like a good idea Mel... It was what I did for after Caitlyn's dedication too :)

    CAFC, I used to cut my meals into bite size pieces so I could still eat with a fork 1 handed... Had to give up soup for a while though ;)

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    red - re the water thing. i found filling a bottle made it easier to drink it and plus i knew how much i was drinking then, i just used an empty water bottle, and filled it up and took it everywhere with me and just had a few sips every so often rather than trying to drink a glass if that makes sense.... and once you start drinkig more, you want it more iyswim xx

    I made Toad in the Hole, peas and gravy.

    I invited my nephew over as he has stayed at home whilst his dad and siblings have gone away as he has a job at a Holiday Club as a sports coach - it's the first time this has happened he's 19 and I'm rescuing him from 2 weeks of frozen ready meals.

    Mmmmmmm, toad in the hole.

    Molly was a great one for inconvenient feeding - still is, but now I can give her a rice cracker or a few bits of veg sticks or something and get on with my own dinner.

    I'm another one who finds drinking from a bottle a much easier way of getting more water in. I'm considering a mini detox in the near future - dropping carbs and drinking more water. Nothing more strenuous though and only for a couple of days :)

    3- You will be looking for the footmuff with spots!
    Basatge camp needs to have severe action taken against them, i plan we all go and stage a sit in until we get the money refunded :D i hope the refund goes through soon and you can enjoy the holidays!

    :wave:Hi L and Erin sends lots of slobbery kisses!!

    thanks for all the advice about erins eating, she actually ate chicken curry, rice and nan for dinner so it must just be a fussy phase? and she will rather share the cats dinner than her own:rotfl:

    Krystal i read it the same way as 3:eek:

    Dinner was curry rice and nan bread, it was meant to be baked poatoes with curry but i forgot to put them on!!!
    I have only recently started to eat hot dinners as everytime i sat to eat i would have a hungry or crying baby. i could never eat whilst BF either??

    I am so angry with Halifax - I opened the regular savings account for Thomas. You have to fund it by standing order (I missed that bit so my own fault it wasnt done sooner as I was trying to do ) every month or else it gets changed over to the ordinary savings account which has poo interest.

    I was on the phone for aaaaages Thurs am setting it up and it turns out the person on the phone put the wrong details in so that it didn't get done.

    I've just been on the phone for half an hour trying to sort it out. They kept putting me on hold while they were trying to figure out what had happened and apparantly listened to the call where I read out the wrong number (2 instead of 3) and confirmed it when it was incorrectly read back to me.

    We had a really bad line so I can only assume she misheard me and vice versa as I was sat with the details infront of me so no way I'd have done this! Funnily enough when the girl tonight read it out she said two and I thought she said three. I think it's party their accents too. Anyway it looks like my account will be closed now as it wasn;t funded in time so I've wasted all that time and money on the phone for nothing :mad:
