    Hello ladies,

    just a flying visit I'm afraid but I spotted a few :money: things and thought I'd post them.

    Home Bargains/quality save have got Peter Rabbit board books for 79p each. There were 4 different ones in Stretford, shapes, colours, numbers and animals. On amazon I could only see them for 1p each with £2.75 shipping for second hand ones, I didn't look on ebay though.

    Asda have got there infant ibuprofen suspension for £1 atm. On one shelf it showed as rollback special price of £1.50 then on another it was marked up normal price £1?! I'm sure it was £2+ last time I got some so stocked up whilst it was cheap.

    Boots had huggies little swimmers for 75p a pack. I've seen them in a couple of stores the last few days but they've all been the 'upto 13lb' ones.

    Gill - I just got your message when I've logged in, fairies will fly tomorrow hopefully!

    Susan - someone's quoted you asking about ear defenders, we got Isla's from ebay. IIRC they were £9 delivered and they are Peltor ones.

    Some beautiful pics on fb the last few days :A

    I hope all are well, I'll try to have a quick skim back before I need to dash off again! x x
    Belly Monkey arrived 19.11.09 :j

    Susan, it might be worth PMing boo about the ear defenders as I'm pretty sure it was her...

    Just driving all over Sussex today looking at flats (DH has a bee in his bonnet even though we have no money to move right now). I'm worn out and just depressed, as it feels like we'll never get out of this rut.

    Hope everyone's well - dashing off as looks like Finn has thrown all his dinner on the floor and it needs rescuing :p.

    *sniggers at SJ's Lilly Allen comment. I shall tell my girls in a clean way as they don't like Lilly. I'm sure the older ones will see the slighlty ruder side :o

    Interesting pics today :T

    Hope everyone is well.

    We've got to look into getting a 10+ seater automobile, or getting a second car. We keep thinking about it, but we have to act now before baby arrives. Anybody got any personal reviews of a decent sized people carrier. 9 + baby + a spare space would be ideal, so probably 11 seater +

    May be we have to have two cars instead. Either way Lucy will keep her car.

    Thanks. I couldn't find much either. I was hoping to find a people carrier that would fit the bill, but no luck.

    Do you need a special licence to drive a minibus, or is it just 25 years +?

    There's such thing as an 11 seater car?!
