    I've just bought a sceinic! Well, collect it Friday and sell mine tomorrow (so long as we get over £3000 for it its cheaper). It's an automatic so really weird to drive but I had a go today and love it! Only a 5 seater but the 3 seats fit in the back ok. I'm happy! Will be happier once the trajet is gone though, machanic called up back last night, almost a grand just for the parts that it will need!!! Then labour ontop. So not much option but to get rid of it. Hopefully WBAC will give us a clear £3000 and its all done.

    I've got a scenic, mines a manual but i love driving it, and i didnt know the back seats came out, thanks for that info ladybird lol! may come in useful!
    If my Mum/MIL took H for the night so I could sleep through they could bring him back dressed in a paper bag as far as I am concerned ;) :rotfl:

    Lol you took the words right out of my mouth ha, we havent had a night off since aug 2009!! and that was for a funeral so not exactly pleasurable... but my mum *might* be having them sleep next week, fingers crossed lol!! Kindof, maybe your mum just prefers him in babygro's, im a bit like that, mine lived in babygro's if we were not going anywhere special,

    Dora lol at the house shaking, when my OH is stomping about the telly shakes a bit, im like argh be careful lol!!

    Hope everyones had a good weekend? x
  • Cafc the tracksuit is mils she bought it for her house for some reason? I am going to have to tell them i would like jim in clothes, nut when i told mam it was so he knew daytime she just kinda scoffed at me, i don't suppose it will matter soon, once i am back at work and they are looking after him we can kiss goodbye to him staying there overnight lol so i won't have that issue

    Ooo I wanna come to a south meet! Kinda just depends on when/where though, so definitely don't plan around me :).

    Spent most of the afternoon fiddling around with stupid Skype so my sister could video with Finn. But we did manage to light a fire, hang some pictures and finally pick up crap around the bedroom.

    DH is now convinced he wants to move to Germany...last month it was the USA! He's insane :rotfl:

    Cafc the tracksuit is mils she bought it for her house for some reason? I am going to have to tell them i would like jim in clothes, nut when i told mam it was so he knew daytime she just kinda scoffed at me, i don't suppose it will matter soon, once i am back at work and they are looking after him we can kiss goodbye to him staying there overnight lol so i won't have that issue

    que? when did i get involved??? :rotfl:

    Got to be honest though hun, if theyre gonna be looking after him etc, you should stick to your guns with it, so that when it comes to other issues that crop up during daycare, they know its your son, your rules....

    I know this is a small "issue" as it were, but it potentially leaves the door open for them to disobey your rules on other things, like say if you dont want E eating sweets if he doesnt have dinner etc etc

    dunno just my tuppence, so please ignore if im sounding like a noob, i think im heady with adrenaline after my quinny win :rotfl:

    Yay! How much for? :D

    I know theres a girl on the less than 12wks from Fareham :)

    Also i dont drive, so would need to be reachable by train or bus :)

    Cafc, i once told my mum i didn't want Lily having loads of sweets and she said she will do it anyway. But thats what she is like.
  • I can get to Portsmouth fine, it depends who else wants to come if somewhere more inland would be more central. But soft play sounds the way to go!
