    What do you do with them to keep them occupied then? I can only imagine he will be an utter nightmare, will keep trying to look at/grab the scissors and most definitely wont sit still! Oh and OH has just called me an idiot for mentioning it so thats annoyed me :mad:

    I was kind of thinking that Benjamin might be so over-awed by the experience that he sits still and behaves.


    *naively*



    Tigs, good luck for Monday if I forget to say beforehand.

  • Sorry to throw a spanner in the works Jillie, but will bigger bottles not make him less hungry for food? I know the aim is to reduce the number of bottles, but say he has a bigger bottle mid-morning or mid-afternoon I would imagine he will be less hungry for lunch/tea :o. I might have totally misunderstood though so feel free to ignore me......

    Rmac- massive hugs for your friend's sister. Some friends of ours (through DH's work) had a stillbirth six months before we had Henry and it still upsets me to think about it...but they had a healthy baby girl today :T and I feel like it was meant to be that she was born on our amazing Andrew's birthday ;).

    I've gone for a skills focussed CV as my experience is quite 'diverse', but my skills and strengths are very transferrable.

    Phew i think i'm a bit calmer now. I do dream of smashing their faces in with a large broken bottle, it worries me sometimes cos i'm not a psycho honest :rotfl: :o :A

    Thanks CAFC i never thought to look in there at all :o I will do though :D

    So can someone tell me why i randomly sniped a travel cot on eBay last night? I don't have a use for one, at all... I am a moron. It will get used as a rather huge toy box no doubt. Also got one of those Leapfrog tables off the same seller so £10 in total and have to go to the next town to collect...

    Susan, (congrats btw :p) the Bruno letter i sent to Ms. B!tch.. i've had no response or anything.. and i kinda expected one? what do you think? I don't wanna phone up, am allergic :(

    My baby girl is asleep, at about half 9, after an hour of screaming. A bit better than yesterday!

    I don't like getting the lo's hair cut, it makes them look instantly older. I don't suppose is as much as a worry with a girl. If V was a boy, she'd look like an 80's footballer with her mullet.

    ((hugs)) Rmac, for you and your friend. How sad!

    We :heart: our Leapfrog table. it has been a big hit. You can always use the travel cot as a playpen.....

    Glad tonight was better than last night, 3. I hope the progress continues.

    2 pages....albeit with very narrow margins :rotfl::rotfl:

    It is a different format to a usual CV, more skills based. I think it is interesting, PM me your email address if you want me to send you a copy (I think I have foisted it on half of the PT before!)

    My assistant has used the same format and she is getting positive feedback from it.

    Thank you very much, mine is skills based too as I don't really have many qualifications apart from good GCSE's and a BTEC ND In Public Services :cool:
    I'll PM you tomorrow if that's OK. I need to empty my PM box but going to bed now :o
    Mine is:- P1 - contact, profile, last job, referees; P2 - past jobs, quals & training. Easier for me as last job was 10 years, so worth putting most emphasis on that.

    I was Page 1 Contact, profile, achievements, then Page 2 - Career Progression, Page 3 Education/Training & References.
    Have extended margins ;) and removed achievements as discussed in Career bit anyway. Now Down to Pages but references is on a 3rd page :(

    Em - Katie has been getting her hair trimmed since about 18 months, the hairdresser comes to us :)

    She now enjoys it so much she climbs up on the chair to take her turn and sits like a statue, either my mum or me hold her head still when her fringe is being trimmed just so it's straight.
    Proud to be dealing with my debts
