MSE Parents Club Part 14

SugarSpun

I've just emailed the BP person they mention in the forum thread about it but the Money Making Gifty people said the same happened to a few of them and they got no reply. I think they were just emailing the regular "promos @" address though.

Secret Santa - The Final Plan

Anyone who would like to be involved with secret santa, please pm me with the following:

1. Ages of your kids that you'd like involved come Xmas
2. Any allergies that you or your littles ones suffer from
3. Address.

Please note :

From the preliminary round the following have been set
You'd be buying a gift for mum and kiddies (the pairings are done based on similar circumstance, e.g multiples with other multiples)

There is a £10 spending guide (as everyone's budgets are different but a guide means noone feels pressured to spending more than they've got) in total.

PM's must be received by 10 November so that the pairings can be allocated and gives people plenty of time to shop/post/make

Just quoting this. PM'd you.

My BIL is a genius and he designed a system whereby once I typed in all the names, kiddies and ages etc it automatically pairs them for me......

Alex had 3 injections today. 2 Boosters and the MMR. No 12 month check here either.

Evening all
C's 12 month check is nationally the 8-12 month check (so I am told and the paper work says) but our trust does it at 12 months to stop lots 'failing' it and having to be recalled.

Am a bit fed up my doc's haven't told me to book in for C's jabs. Am back at work a week on Monday and don't want to be having time off - would have rather had them out of the way next week. Will call them tomoz and se if they can fit me in.

CAFC - are we actually gonna be 'paired up' so we know who bought for us or will it just be random people with babies a similar age? No worries either way but I always thought you were just told who you were buying for but that didn't also mean they were buying for you IYKWIM?

Can't remember much else bar special hugs for Mel and Michelle and general hugs all round xxx

Amber hasn't had her 8-12month check at all. But has had her jabs.

Caitlyn didn't have a check either, they stopped them in our area while she was the right age... Think they might be doing them again now though...

We still got our boosters and mmr though...

We're having an amazing thunderstorm here... It's making the window shake! And the drain next door has blocked so the car park is all flooded... Hope it's gone down by tomorrow...

Edit: That thunder was so loud it's set off house alarms!!! Made me jump anawl...

Ahhh see this is where the brilliance of the spreadsheet lies.....

You're not paired exactly, you're more "assigned" so its more like traditional secret santa....
Imagine pulling a name from a hat..... thats what the spreadsheet has done:rotfl:

So you'll ne'er know who buys for you, only who you're buying for :T
