GISI, yes we met at the Imperial War Museum. Weezl made bara brith (Welsh tea bread) for everyone and we all had a good time at the Ministry of Food exhibit. I meant to buy some postcard souvenirs but ran out of time (had to leave when Finn got grotty).

Sounds fab :T.

Gah, I shouldn't have revisited the BFing thread. My blood is now officiall boiling.

But I am thinking about making these to calm me down http://giverslog.com/?p=3290.

GISI, that was silly wasn't it . How funny that you were at Marwell too. If we'd known we could have met up. Izzy loved the big cats the best today. And the playground!

They went to the West Midlands Safari park... Apparently a camel stuck it's head through Aimee's window and ate one of her sylvanian families off her lap... Aimee went hysterical and FIL had to get out of the car and rescue the sylvanian family cat before she'd calm down... And then she wouldn't open the window again lol...

Wow, I haven't been to a safari park since I was teeny. Poor Aimee, wat a brave grandad she has .

I've just listed my Grandads reel-to-reel tape recorder on ebay for my parents and I am already obsessively checking the auction every 5 mins. I will be a nervous wreck by the time the auction ends :rotfl:. Now my Mum is thinking of loads of other things she could list to get rid of them. They are not bothered about making much money from things, the just don't like throwing things away and want to give them to a good home instead. It is a good thing they live in a big house, as they have half of my Grannys furniture they are saving in case anyone wants it, and they are now filling the place with Grandads stuff too - they will be moving in with us because there is no room for them in their own house at this rate :eek:.

Evening. I just read some of that bf thread you were talking about - surely that's just been posted to provoke a row?

Enjoyed driving the van today, it's a big sprinter. Not had a great day other than that but hey ho. Off to bed in a minute as I'm really tired still and think I will be busy again tomorrow.

Just a personal challenge...

Maybe I should start one in September (maybe £75 since we're on holiday for a week).

Any one got a Bounce & Spin - how long do your littles use it for?

We've got one. C is starting to use it a bit more now that she can put both feet on the the ground (well, tiptoes!). She can just about get on it herself too. She probably goes on it for a couple of minutes two or three times a day. Sometimes she just stands in front of it spinning the bead thing on the handles instead of actually getting on it. When I bounce her on it with quite a bit of force , she loves it.

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 used Boots own brand gripe water and I never noticed the 2 weeks things, so we definitely didn't stick to it.

Glad you had a nice time with Weezl, Aless.

Claire - Lovely photos. Happy birthday to Charlie for Monday.

When and where is Monkey Forest?
