I'm reliably in formed that are some codes you can use too SHD1 - Free Delivery
P29P 10% off :whistle:

That is a great deal, and would be good for party bags at that price.

Gill, I recon the train would be easy to make. I made the tiles for Caitlyn's dedication cake.

One thing which annoys me and which made it much more difficult is that the information they give you beforehand makes out that it is really easy and that it only hurts if you are doing it wrong. I got very very sore and not only was it really painful but it was really stressful because I mistakenly thought I must be doing something wrong. Even if it's as bad next time I'm sure it will be easier because I will be prepared for it.

I had a horrible time breast feeding I'm hoping next time around I'll be a bit more prepared and demand more help so i don't have to give up so soon. I was in agony, bleeding loads from both nipples and had a very demanding hungry baby who was very rough with me! My nipples actually took several weeks to heal up. I know he was never going to be gentle with me, but i wish i'd got more help and advice before it got out of hand (and me left in such a state).

It hasn't put me off bf next time though, at the time though I was a mess and was so glad to hand Elliot over to his dad who had the bottle of formula ready I'm also not rushing home next time, not untill I'm more confident with bf-ing.

anyone seen on their seaches for christmas a toddler table and chair?

Ikea have some really cute ones in. No idea of prices though.

Sorry to hear all your news Tia *hugs* It's tough when everything piles up.

Off to work this morning to merchandise more nappies and shampoo.

Have a good day all xx

Morning all! Gosh, it's really dark out.

Our boiler has spontaneously decided it's going to intermittently work now. Even though I was finally able to take a shower, that's actually more annoying because if it's working when the engineer turns up, he may decide that's good enough and not do anything to fix it. Also, apparently the landlord is claiming there's nothing wrong with it - erm, I don't see her over here looking at it? I feel slightly bad-ish because we've been here only 1 month and already needed 2 things fixed - but neither were our fault and hopefully we can go the whole next year with nothing else going wrong!

Finn's going to the CM for the first time today - I should be ambitious and plan some cleaning or something productive, but I will probably just use the time to take a mega-nap! I've been so tired lately...maybe I need to eat more iron or something .

Ooh, I hope Finn gets on okay today. I am very jealous of your nap .

Hope everyone who makes it has fun at the Monkey Forest and take lots of pics please!


We are full of cold in this house today. H has been up since 5 but is napping now. Not much planned except popping in to work and then swimming but all I want to do is crash out and sleep.

Glam, I can't believe how grown up Jack looks - in about half an hour he'll be off to university

Assistant was VERY VERY happy with her Pandora. She jumped up from the table shouting 'this is the best present EVER' She was going to ask her mum for one for Christmas but now she doesn't have to - just more charms!

I'm glad she liked it, and I hope the monkeys and the day out relax you a bit xxx

Enjoy Monkey Forest everyone else. I will get to a meet one day.

Big hugs Becky, two poorly babies in one house must be :eek: I think most baby hernias resolve themselves.

Hugs Kindof and NMS with sickly babies - and NMS for being a sickly mummy

Tia, you're quite reasonable to feel stressed with everything that's going on, but try to take one thing at a time and rant as much as you need. We heart you xxx

:wave: Bruno, are things any better for you?

3, the parcel arrived, thank you so much! I shall leave lovely feedback as usual.

No update from my obnoxious ebay buyer, hopefully he's realised that I know he was trying it on. But I'll be checking my feedback closely...

Hugs Tia that's a load of crap to put up with at once, no wonder you're feeling bad.
Is the car so bad it needs to be sold for scrap? (Do Scrappies still buy broken cars?) I know my mums had so many parts for her battered old Saxo recently, she's probably bought most of another Saxo from the local scrap yard.

Bruno Where've you been? I'm dying to know how bedtime is going? Are you still hiding? When do your visitors arrive?

No monkies for us I'am afraid, we're another household full of a cold.

I hope you're all feeling better soon.

Keely That sounds like a nightmare - but thankfully it hasn't put you off trying again. And you're nip's might be a little tougher now. I had no problems feeding J & V, but L was a nightmare of broken blistered boobies!

I did wonder how long airmail took. No too long then.


:(:( I was here with Primarni rain mac and wellies at the ready, but got a text to say Stoke is very very raining and the monkeys don't come out in the rain. :(:(

What am I going to do with myself?

My_Fathers_Daughter

Have just spoken to work (about a mile away from Monkey Forest) and it is really raining in Stoke

My assistant goes there quite a bit with her son and she said that the monkeys don't come out to play in the rain...and that it will be very, very muddy.

So Krystal and I will not be playing with the Monkeys today We are taking our monkeys for lunch in Ikea (because we are devoid of other ideas LOL) instead.

Have texted 3 - I am really sorry hun, I know you were really looking forward to it.
