I've also been an Asda tart and got nappies galore (for a cloth user :rotfl:) and plates and bowls.

Also, Gill I got the £12.50 push chair cos OH wanted a cheap small fold one - I just used it to pop to Tesco and kept standing on the brake at the back! Not too impressed but didn't spend much so not too bothered. Will see what OH thinks.

Erm - lovely photo's everyone - I have one to post but will do so later when C is in bed if I get chance. Can't think of anything else so hugs to all (especially Buttons) and back later when C in bed xxx

ETA NMS Did you get your activity tables? Hope so :-) xxx

I am placing an online order for BBQ on Saturday... what have I forgotten that's a must-have

burgers
chicken drumsticks
stuff for a greek salad
burger buns
Pimms
Lemonade
Strawberries
Limes
Guacamole ingredients
some veggie kebabs and some lamb kebabs

I should probably do some other salad? Maybe a potato salad with spring onions?


Edit: maybe a dozen adults or so plus couple of small kids
Edit: already have ketchups and beers

Would you not do hotdogs Bruno? We always do hotdogs...

Maybe onions for those that want it... Cheese... Spare ribs?

I love Tesco minted lamb kebabs... We do those in the oven and have them with salad and pitta bread

SugarSpun

I'd say potato salad or pasta salad and maybe some bananas to poke chocolate buttons in, wrap in foil and put in with the coals.

Oh, and cheese, mayo, ketchup, mustard, napkins, paper plates...

BrunoM

Thanks - bananas a nice idea - most of the other things I already have in cupboards - did consider hotdogs but I figured that in the world of meat, burgers plus drumsticks plus kebabs already was sufficient

Ooh, Dave always insists on marshmallows on skewers to melt over the top of the BBQ as it goes out...

And there's no such thing as too much meat

But you could get veggie sausages as an alternative

hi all,

sorry mad dash in as lunch is about to finish.

can anyone recommend any shoes websites that cater for 1/2 sizes?? LO is a 6 1/2 and i am struggling to get her shoes anywhere other than clarks.

just seen your post mfd re bargins in asda. must go tonight (if car is fixed). i always worry buying the bigger boxes as who knows when LO is going to have a growth spurt. she is such a heavy wetter too!!

will be back tonight to catch up/chat.

Shoes; we have this problem too, Elliot is a half size and I've just had to get his shoes from Clarks again as no where else seems to sell them?

KEELY.

I love baby potato skewers. Boil some baby potatoes, toss in butter or olive oil and some herbs garlic etc then skewer and toast on th BBQ. And fruit chunks on skewers. Pineapple orange apple etc. Shame some cinnamon over the top.

I am in such a mood. The house is a pigsty but I get so a grey that I have to clean it that I don't get actually cleaning it. I hate feeling like this but it's all I ever see
To do recently is feel angry. Or so sad that everything is a struggle. And the holiday was utter crap. Wish we hadn't go e at all it was so bad.

Tia that sounds pretty miserable. You really should rant at us properly, or at a RL friend?

Thanks for the link MFD - My friends little boy had this which they found when he was 6 months old - they noticed only one eye was red on photos, sadly after lots of treatment and the loss of his eye he died the week of his 3rd birthday. Its something I am extra paranoid about now.

B- is the double of his dad in your pic

Having a peaceful night -OH and DD are both at work and LO is in bed - heaven
