    Perhaps lots of repetition, of 'oh I'm sorry to hear that, poor you!' which kinda doesn't then get drawn into the general being down on everyone, but is still supprtive?

    I think this is awesome advice and you, as always, are a rockstar :)
    rmac you got me looking at uggs ... philip said he'd get me some but hes getting me these http://schuh.co.uk/womens-black-and-gold-irregular-choice-whimsical-miaow-ankle-boot/1403907920 and its just too much for both x

    Has he looked at the ebay outlet? It might not be much difference but sometimes it's massive.

    3, I'm so :mad: and :( that you have to keep battling for things for J. Your MP sounds good though.

    I am back from the Oktoberfest ladies' lunch and it was awesome. Friends are going back tonight so we'll see if I might not be able to join them :j

    Sami Costco had some wintry looking boots in last week. I didn't look closely for the make/price though.


    My baby girl has just had a dairylea dunker. She gave the little crackers to the dog and used the dairylea as a face pack. :(


    Just found a bit on the DLA tribunal. It is a tribunal where the claimant has to attend in person - that should be interesting when they question him! :p

    3, I meant to say that a friend of mine advocated for a friend of hers who has Down's syndrome. They had to go to a tribunal because the DLA was reduced on the grounds that he might have improved.

    "So, do you still have Down's syndrome?"
    "Yes."
    "Oh, ok then. *stamps form* DLA for you!"

    Infuriating, and such a waste of time.

    Workinmummy your fabulous fairies arrived this morning and the coat is gorgeous!!! We had a Tu sleepsuit in the same colours and funnily enough Alfie wore it last night which I said was going to be the last time as it's now too small, real shame as the colour really suited him, so I'm extra mega chuffed with his new coat :) So thanks again to you and Alex :A

    You and Alfie are most welcome, it's sad when things you like don't fit them anymore. But fab when they get new homes and are loved again.:smileyhea

    Who linked to the Not on the high street site? It has some gorgeous things on it. I love all the knitted, crochet stuff toys, wish I had some skill to make things like that.
