    Oh forgot. Tigs that's a lovely story about Andrew and his new cot toy. Pleased you all enjoyed the day.

    Yesterday Joe passed on his Baby Tad to Alex. (Tad had been sat unloved at the back of all the stuffed toys awww....). He is now much loved and there were massive smiles on Alex's face when it sang incey wincey spider and twinkle twinkle.

    I can't be sure but i think i've lost £20 grrrrrrrrr :mad:

    Ex gave me some cash and so i've been using it in bits and bobs and not kept track of what's left. I thought i took £60 out today and i spend £40 on a sat nav.... but nothing left :-/

    It's more annoying cos i don't know for sure :-/
  • Beanie can you call your bank and check how much you took out? That way at least you know.

    Izzy went down for a nap in her own bed without any fuss today. She whinged quietly for a bit but not enough for me to go back in. I have finished doing my legs, so I no longer have one leg looking like a bear. Now to get some jars in the oven to warm for chutney, and doing the washing up while they warm. Or possibly do my eyebrows. That might be a better plan while I have no distractions, and no-one trying to help me!

    Sounds like he might be exactly what they are looking for ;):rotfl:

    I have visions of Harry Enfield and "Young maaaaaaaaaaaaaan!" in my head
    I'll tell him that, he'll appreciate it :rotfl:

    Caitlyn has no wellies... She's so deprived!!

    I'm going to take them to lichfield next week and get their feet measured... If she's grown to the dizzy lengths of a size 3 I'll see what I can find on eBay...

    She's loving the cat at the moment... He miaows a lot when she touches him but doesn't actually move so I don't think it's as horrific as he makes out... Although she did just try and pick him up by his skin... That's a first lol...

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Ladybird it was cash, i've had it stashed in the cupboard and been dipping into it all week when going shopping etc and not kept track. Very non-MSE of me :(

    imagine that the interviewers like to watch Jonathan Creek naked

    If Jonathan Creek was nekkid I would absolutely watch :cool::o:rotfl:

    Busy day for us, we're just back in after lots of stuff. We were walking through a main square and a tourist was so taken with Molly that she turned her head to stare and walk ... and fell off the curb. I went over to help and she BOUNCED up and said, Nothing happened! and scurried off redfaced.

    Husband is taking Molly out for dinner tonight. I have a massive to-do list but might have a bath instead. Decisions decisions.

    Michelle and MOTM- I hope you both got some sleep in the end.

    I only woke up an hour ago. Girls said I needed my sleep, so didn't wake me at the agreed 12 noon. Never done that when I was I was on my own with them, so feel very strange, but i'm at least 'with it'.

    MOTM i dont do tesco either unless its for toys etc. we have a great butcher although he is around a 10 mile each way drive, they do freezer bag and lable everythhing which helps me hugely!

    Is there a reason you don't do Tesco? Sounds like a decent butcher. My locals all have the gift of the gab and I swear talk billy bullshine all the time.

    Is Susan pregnant? I seen someone congratulate her but I cannot find a post from her announcing it.

    oooh Tigs, your going to have mucho fun now at bedtimes :p

    That sucks Beenie :(

    Loving the wellybops MFD.

    I usually get keira's from here, though she currently has a pair of clarks as the farmyard ones I got her from there are a size 7? and way too small, she wont let me bung em though!

    http://www.fredsclothing.co.uk/pl/194/girls-funky-wellies-country-clothing.html

    They dont seem to have the farmyard ones in anymore, but they still have the matching rain mac, and possibly umbrella. Just noticed they sell Joules clothes, what a rip off they are. Keira's gran keeps buying that stuff, she got her a cute little polo t shirt that's striped and it cost £25 :eek: for a tshirt! That she spilled some irn bru on. The jeans she got her aswell, are age 4 to 5 but are baggy at waist and half mast on her legs? I might ebay those if I can ever be @rsed. She's now 3ft 4 and a half, what's average for a 4year and 4 month old? I dunno where that red book is lol oops


    God the Joules clothes look so pretentious. Should deck Keira out in to go horse riding (which I need to arrange for her to go again, bit skint till next week!) But she has started speaking well posh, she goes "Oh! Rigggggght!" but in a toff voice. It's quite funny but people must think I stole her from Balmoral or something.

    main reason is its further away and i do like to get as much locally from the butcher and farm, morrisons and asda are next door to each other in the town so i usually head there. LOL about the locals! i had one of the older guys from my old job cuddle me in front of a few village mums, he said the tounges would wag and they certainly have today PMSL! noone around here even knows me so i would love to know whats being said! the joys of village life :D dont think i would really like to be anywhere else though?
