    ...

    I am so old :( my fun hobby is my family tree and I am thinking of treating myself to some decent pots and pans for my birthday :( where did it all go wrong...
    :rotfl:I'm 'slightly' younger than you and I wanted pans for my birthday too :o I didn't get them though because my sister said it was too sad (I still want my fancy pans- the JO tefal ones MFD mentioned)

    I', feeling rather deprived as I've never driven a van :( I'd never get to either as OH only ever 'lets' me drive if he's had a drink or really tired - chauvinist pig :p

    Som - we have a violet, I HAD to buy it for Edgar as I figured it would be the only time I could buy him something off the shelf that knew his name:cool:

    Caz did you say snowing? :eek:

    oh and I feel a bit guilty but, I'm off to get dressed and take the boys to feed the ducks in the glorious sunshine we have :cool: Chris is desperate to take Ed out on his new Smart Trike, we got the "My First" one in the tesco sale for £10 - I think its fab and totally recommend it over forking out £50+ for the fancy one if your LO is a bit older like mine (it says its for 15mth+) http://direct.tesco.com/product/images/?R=206-9830
    Also got Chris a waybuloo scooter http://direct.tesco.com/product/images/?R=207-1224 but I've cross threaded one of the bolts so hubby has taken it to get another bolt from work so he can't use it yet :o Very happy with my bargains though :D
    sorry the trikes are OOS on tesco now tho

    Lovely photo Nico :)

    I'm going great guns on my list, possibly because Husband saw me doing stuff and asked if he could help so I gave him the two things I really didn't want to do :D

    The deed is done, I was brave! He wasnt too bad actually, got a bit stroppy towards the end but the hairdresser said he was quite well behaved :D I am going to look out a home one for next ti

    me though.

    Got a banana cake in the oven :drool:

    New kitty is settling in quite well, he pooped in his tray this morning and has already rejected his kitten food in favour of the others food, suits me fine, I wont have to buy two different types and we dont run the risk of Scruffy and his sensitive stomach accidently eating the wrong food and getting the runs!! He was a booger last night though, kept playing with my feet and jumping round the room. Grr.

    Caz, snowing?! Thats mental!!

    I'd be too scared to drive a van, no rear mirror :eek:

    Sorry you're not feeling well 3 xx

    no i wasnt rich enough to have all ragdolls lol! The kitties are bengal/ragdoll and father unknown? one is black the other grey but they have stripes through them which i hope come through better with their adult coat. ill try to get a pic when they wake up :D
    Good news on the food and using the tray so soon! we havent had any accidents so i am very impressed!

    eta we will be breeding Lola once and i will keep one of her kittens then having her dressed, she is too beautiful not to have babies :D the kittens will be dressed as soon as they are old enough though

    Our kitten is on the same food as our older cat (2 yrs old) so no seperate food either. But they are both now into play fighting at 4.30 in the morning and very noisy with it!
    Glad your list is going well Sugar and that your kitten is settling in emlou.
    Caz hope the snow stays away!


    ETA Bella is part bengal, her markings are beautiful.

    I've got a Scout on Thomas's Christmas list :) I don't think there's any danger of it not knowing his name lol.

    DH won't let me get a Jumperoo :( He says it takes up too much room and we've got too much baby carp as it is lol. So I'm going to get a Hop n Pop instead. Watching a few on ebay that end tomorrow. My only concern is that it doesn't appear to be adjustable and T is tall so might grow out of it quickly. Doe anyone have one and can you tell me what height it goes up to?

    I also have a gripe water question. The bottle says use within 2 weeks. Does anyone know why and would you use it after the 2 weeks?

    We had a better night last night with only one poo :jDH changed him :j:j and he went back down without being fed :j:j:j It was about 3am so I was really pleased. I fully expected him to wake back up for a feed at 4ish as I've got him back in bad habits but he slept until 6am :j Unfortunately he then refused to go back down but you can't have everthing :cool:
