    If anyone's going to Asda i can highly recommend the swedish meatballs for £1, we had them last night and they're delish :D Only a few mins in micro too we had them with pasta and bol sauce. Amber practically inhaled the pasta.

    OH & the children love those £1 swedish meatballs. OH uses them to make his pizzas more interesting.

    I think it was 3 that was asking about Hobby Horses yesterday.

    Argos have this one on offer and it is also included in the 2 for £15.

    Thank you WM - i'm pleased you used the MSE downtime productively. I'll see if our Argos has got any - she's still riding around on the brush today, it seems to be a favorite toy.


    MFD How about you next? You only have one, and you make such cuties. :D

    My CM has now had Erin a few weeks and she absolutly loves her, the only problem i am having is that she will not take payment? The last CM took £20 for 9-3 which i was happy to pay but this one said she knows i could do with a break and is happy to help! I think i should do something or contribute but she refuses every time? Payment was never talked about before as it was a chat we had walking up to school, she had thurs free and i asked if she would take E. It was all agreed and TBH i would pay more for her to be there as she is wonderful. i dont know what to give her or do?
    I don't know what you can give her but you can tell everyone what a great childminder she is.

    I completely missed the forum being closed :D

    Was in the kitchen making apple chutney and chopping chillies for chilli jam. Very sore fingers now, loads of little cuts all filled with capsaicin from the batsard chillies :(

    Lufthansa is €221 per person for the flights I wanted so I'm going to look at Easyjet.
    Edit: just as bad, maybe I'll see you all at some point in the future :o

    hope you're feeling better delain.
    good luck for krystal though think i might be a bit late.
    gill, that would freak me out! hope he's ok, think if it was a one off i would leave it but def go see gp if he did it again.

    well, missed booby group, they've changed the time since the leaflet was printed so arrived 10 mins after everyone had gone home, though have found another one on a weds and gonna try that as will hopefully be having every other weds off when i go back to work in jan and could still go if its any good.

    Michelle I'm with you on the not being brave enough for a meet, although saying that monkey forest is only about 40 mins from me so will see if feeling braver in a couple of weeks!
