    I've just been reading Weezls thread and browsing the website for cheapy meal ideas, MOT on my car and tax for both cars due at the end of the month

    It would be ok to take Katie out of playgroup for a day to go to Monkey World? Wednesday is one of her full days - I had a light bulb moment about 5 minutes ago

    Congratulations PP :j:j:j April is a very nice month to have a baby :D

    Glam - I had Chinese last night, tonight we're on Ikea meatballs mash and veg as I've not been shopping, it's Katie and me and she doesn't eat chips.

    In other news DH booked the table, for the evening, my fault didn't tell him to book it for lunch, so he is ringing tomorrow and adjusting the time :) Still not told him why though :rotfl:

    When do you plan to start TTC then Glam?

    Yeah it would be fine to take her out for the day MDW... School isn't compulsary until Year 1 :)

    Wow PP, it feels like an age until February... I can't believe you're due in April lol!

    Hi Nico, nice to see you :)

    I have to admit, I was lurking :DCongrats Pinkpig!

    My thoughts are turning to no.2 but how on earth do you manage? Is a double-buggy the only way? I'd be timing this for around when Andrew is two-and-a-half (but hey, they could arrive early again!)

    You don't have to do a double buggy, you could use a sling for either toddler or newborn... And depending on the toddler... Some of them are ready to give up buggies relatively quickly so a buggyboard and a single buggy is enough...

    We're going with double buggy because Caitlyn will only be 22months when this one comes along, and pregnancy wrecks my back so I would really struggle to sling either of them in the early days...

    :jThank you! I am nowhere near Manchester :rotfl:. I am inbetween Gloucester and Hereford but would like to meet some distant cousins in Manchester so will catch a train to Manchester :D

    LOL that's a bit of A trek but it will be good to meet you :) Only potential problem is that where I am at Trafford is a not that easy to get to from the city centre which I'm guessing is where you're train is coming into so it may be easier for you to get another train from the centre to the Monkey place - I think MFD said there was a station nearby?

    ETA - Jillie has just said it's not really doable from centre in which case easiest option would be to get the metro to somewhere I can easily get to or if the timings fit a train to the staion right near me. Once you know what train you would be likely to get we can find the easiest option.

    Jillie - whereabouts in Manchester are you? NMS has got space in her car too.

    PinkPig - Congratulations :T
