    Thank you Sami I love you :A


    I was playing with the sport in M&P the other day wishing the factory shop would reduce one. One winging it's way to me early next week.

    2 left if anyone else fancies one :D
    :jI love you too ;)
    Does it have a foam handle? if so I suggest you take a mini roll of cellotape and a some bubblewrap/small fleece/towel and wrap it around the handle for the plane trip, you should have seen the state of the wrapping on my p&t handle when I got it back at the otherside - Thank god It was wrapped!!:eek: I wish now I'd forked out for the travel bag now but that cest la vie :p


    Anyway haven't had time to tell you all of my traumatic baby clinic trip! As some will rememeber 'they' have moved baby clinic to the main health centre in the centre of my village/town. I finally managed to get my botty down there and discovered Edgar is 19lb 15oz.
    I asked the HV for some eczema cream for him as I've been using Chris's on his but it wasn't shifting it, so she wrote us a 'script for "oilatum Junior 500ml". I went to the chemist attached to the centre only to discover its the methadone dispensing place for this area - I was so glad that Chris was too busy watching their dog tied up outside to ask any embarrassing questions about them (although to be honest they were clearly off their tits before they'd got their meth so prob wouldn't have noticed! I thought you got kicked off the meth program if you were taking street drugs?) I was desperately trying to not p!ss myself laughing at the girl once she'd drank her meth she went out and it took her a full FIVE mins to undo the catch on the lead :rotfl:
    Anyhoo I got my 'script went and put the boys in the car, opened the bag to have a look, to find oilatum junior bath additive 600ml so I left the boys in the car thinking I'd just be 1min, go in and tell them they'd given me the wrong stuff I need the cream which is 500ml not 600ml of bath stuff, They insist that they've given me the right stuff and if it was cream it would be in grams - !!!!!!?! anyway I had to go out and get the boys coz didn't want to leave them any longer then back into the health centre, find the HV who came into the chemist and confirmed it was cream and gave me a rolleyes at the stupid chemist woman :p who then finally gave me my Oilatum Junior cream 500ml!!
    What is wrong with some people, I know the HV forgot to put cream but when faced with 2 items with the same name and one is 500ml and it says 500ml on the flipping 'script you'd go for that one wouldn't you!!:mad: So anyway I'm not going in that stupid moronic, smack head haven again!

    That sounds like a nightmare trip Sami.

    We all had a lie in this morning until 8.50am :)

    Plans for today - food shopping, go to check my parents house is still standing, go and visit some of DH's family as it's ages since they've seen Katie.

    Must get going.
    Proud to be dealing with my debts
    DD Katie born April 2007!
    3 years 9 months and proud of it
    dreams do come true (eventually!)

    Sorry, secret recipe! Kidding! It's 1 pach unsalted butter to 500g icing sugar, a splash of milk and 2tsp vanilla extract (not flavouring). You need the butter to be soft and beat it until it goes really pale, if you can't see a noticable difference in the colour you've not done it long enough!

    Lovely pics, Glam

    Som can't believe T has 2 teeth already! Wow. Has she cut them without much fuss? Can't remember you saying they've troubled her much.

    Aless great news about your move! I have decided I want to move but we've just signed another year's lease :(

    Excellent SJ, I hope they're insanely comfortable all day.

    I wish I'd known your topping secret on Wednesday - it would have saved a massive fight and an extraordinarily ugly cake :rotfl:

    Caz, berry muffins!!

    Bruno, how's Mrs B today?

    I just drove at 50 miles an hour down a dual carriage way... Bit scary really!

    And hubby's just off the the cafe to pick us up a couple of breakfasts, a bit frivolous but they do fantastic proper salty bacon yummy yum!!

    Oh, I also suggest wrapping the pram handle, the foam was nearly seperated from my chicco buggy when I took Aimee on holiday...
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.
