Not enough raspberries to convert into raspberry vinegar - will jst eat these instead
Banana Loaf was delish -yummy

toots xx. He has managed one feed from a bottle, and is now a lot more lively, so fingers crossed he'll get the hang of breastfeeding later today. I know my SIL wants to breastfeed, and they're planning on going to the clinics if they do keep having problems.
Right... better go and supervise my mother... I think she should do a bit of gardening in return for her board and lodging!
Grateful - when OH is trying to work out what to do re. the kids, I am mindful of the experiences of those on this thread. I know like hex's OH he wants his kids to be happy and well-looked after. He's currently paying all the bills, but is moving over to paying an allowance for next month - his ex told him how much she needed, he went over the bank statements and is giving her more as he's pretty sure she's got it wrong. Then again, if she didn't let food rot in the fridge, she might need less.0 -

MrsChaos possibly alternator if it's on and off. Can usually get reconditioned, second hand (scrap yard) or new, depending what car depends how much
Hex wish we had free food, I never get bored of repeated meals/food oh and I'd keep what you bought him at home for him to use, how thick must she be?
Greenbee congratulations on becoming an auntyI've always made new mum friends meals & a treat which is always appreciated
gratefulforhelp if he doesn't know already also tell him not to tip it on it's side, tip up on the back wheels only is usually a good rule for mowers
Flower type people, have you thought of joining a seed/plant swap. I know one exists up here but there is loads if you google seed or plant swap and your area.
I've made nothing, in fact thanks to a trip to Brymor (the best ice cream shop EVER!) I've not even got room in my freezershame huh. Anyway we've had a nice day, boys not back until Wednesday so we're on practise tie and lace fastening until then. 2 things DS1 is yet to master!
I'm going to do a 30 minutes rubbish fling to make me feel better for being out all daywasher load in/out too I think.
One day I might be more organised...........

Mind you we have just been presented with a £1500 bill for a trip to South America with school that we would never have signed off for our pair.....
eek! and that's hard on your two, but then they have both parents and I'm sure thats worth more.Yes, he has got a name, but seeing as I like to be relatively anonymous on here, I'm not telling. He has managed one feed from a bottle, and is now a lot more lively, so fingers crossed he'll get the hang of breastfeeding later today. I know my SIL wants to breastfeed, and they're planning on going to the clinics if they do keep having problems.
Ask piggers she's an expert.
