    From last weeks poll apparently 11% of people think that a cooker is not a necessity for a family with children. How do they think we should eat?

    deep fat fryer, microwave, take aways

    _pale_ I hate deep fat fryers. Someone was going to buy us one for our wedding and asked if i wanted it. I said no as i would never use it and he was shocked as his stepdaughter uses it for every meal :eek:

    I had a glow worm, and they are creepy. Is why Lily is never having one.

    Tesco is having its baby event soon, is why they have all these fantastic offers :D

    We still have loads of nappys and wipes from Asda event though.

    My Doctors called this morning and cancelled my appointment until 30th Sept as the doc has gone onto family leave.
    DH was outraged because i need to tell them im pregnant :rotfl:

    Grabbit here btw for those doing Xmas shopping, i ordered Mr Potato Head instead tho:

    vtech Alphabet apple, £9.00 Delivered @ Debenhams,code , cashback

    Thanks, lovely, apple and potato head pack ordered for Mistress Stinkerpants for next year - starting early while still on full pay :money:

    I just went out to buy bin liners and they don't have the Brabantia ones in my supermarket - my posh bargain bin is suddenly looking less posh and bargainous :angry: Still, a pair of leggings fell into my basket (I paid for them, in case you back of the lorry types were wondering ;))

    Is mr potato head on offer or something beenie? I was wanting to get Keira one, for Crimbo as she has woody, jessie, buzz and slinky dog (all idris' btw :rotfl:)

    Yeah they're half price, but use Quidco and the 10% off code off that thread aswell http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10001_10001_171010337799_-1?breadcrumb=Home~txtpotato
    Also :rotfl: at junkie. I love the darlo accent, my ex is from there and I used to think "owt" was an ace word.

    You want OWWWWWT. Oh yeah and the shop near his house used to try and rip me and my scottish notes off, oh yeah we can take a scottish £20 but you dont get change, oh what? So im paying £20 for a pack of fags? Get lost !
    :rotfl: LOL that's so funny, what a skank!! :rotfl:

    hello everyone. Our break to Centre Parcs was brilliant. It went really smoothly even though the inlaws came with us :rotfl:

    Buttons - I love the kitchen. LO is getting a wooden kitchen similar to that from santa ;)

    PS I know before I went away there was lots of christmas talk on the board. Remember that the muller little stars range are doing 20% off vouchers. We tried their framage frais this week ;) :rotfl: :D The codes are unique and have to be used by some date in October - the end i think. But we are organised aren't we :D

    SS we have a brabantia as well and I refuse to pay that much for bin liners :D I use extra large sized ones in the supermarket own brand or the garden refuse ones. They are a good size..............................Dunelm mill have the brabantia ones, but not for less than John Lewis - my favourite shop in the world :D

    I hate John Lewis, They look at me like I'm bald and fat.....oh wait :p

    One time when I first started going out with Idris we walked past it and he said something like "It's John Jewish" and it was in the local rag the next day, deorgatory comments fnnnnarrr. The dude that owns it is Jewish is he not? Maybe would of been bad if it came from Idris' mum though, she's a bit weird with Jewish people, probably been brought up to hate them.

    I said to her "Do you like Jewish people" "Yes darling I have no problem with them" news comes on about the gazza strip or whatever it is "Bloody Jews, stealing my lan" and then started firing off a lot of arabic so I had no scooby, I got the feeling it wasn't cool though :p

    R mac - Annabel will love the cooker, get her some of those wooden vegs with velcro in the middle, they are good fun :rotfl:
