    Caz, yes I do but I wont fit anything else in the boot with it. Plus it's getting a bit woibbly and Amber wants to sit up more than the Joolz lets her.

    How much Fern? They are going for about £50 on eBay if you have time to wiat.

    Thanks! I did wait and just got one for £60. Much better than the £175 brand new one I was going to buy. It was from boots though so I would have got £21 back in points but better than half price can't be bad! :) I really hope my DD2 likes it better than the techno. If not then Waaaahhhhhhhhh! (thats me not her BTW) :D
  • That will be nice for him to catch up with folks.

    We're good thanks, have had the cold lurgy that's going round but much better today.


    I'm struggling with DH at the moment though. He just seems distant, never really bothered about doing anything with me, nose permanently buried in Facebook. He says he's just tired, but I feel like we need to do something to get the zing back. No idea what though as he doesn't seem enthusiastic about anything I suggest or organise.

    I bet you're all planned for Christmas/Birthdays now aren't you?

    MDW Hopefully the union man will call you Monday. Or can you call them? I know the union in my work were great. Was it you're off self cert now, and go back to Docs for a note next week?

    Well glad you had a good chat with DH, Sugar. Sounds like it was just what you needed.

    Hugs for poorly babies and mummies. There's a lot of sniffles about.

    I love my Dyson! It's a fairly basic one but it's definitely worth the £150 I spent on it.

    Ooh Aunty Glam, congrats! I was looking at all the videos on my phone last night of Alfie right from when he was born. Was making me a little broody.

    I'm watching The Great British Bake Off, the biscuits one. I want biscuits and a cuppa now. Gosh, I just want everything I see don't I?! ETA: Digestive biscuits were invented as a cure for farting :rotfl:

    3 - Work not unionised, joined because of work issues. I keep calling them I've left about 5 messages :( Will be ringing again on Monday lunchtime if not heard anything.

    I'm on self-cert until until Wednesday, I've already been to my GP so just need to ring, leave a message and she'll leave me a note on reception for me. GP doesn't like a Type 2 Diabetic being stressed.

    Apologies for being so selfish, hugs to everyone.

    I think Katie's boots were a hit, everytime we took them off she put them straight back on again!
    Proud to be dealing with my debts
    DD Katie born April 2007!
    3 years 9 months and proud of it
    dreams do come true (eventually!)

    Lily is ok. Her temp went back down to 36.6 and he checked her chest and back and has said its a cold virus.

    She does have an eye infection though, we went to asda for her eye cream and they are out of stock, so we need to find an open chemist tomorrow.

    I got a huge bottle of calpol for £3 and it came with a free cd :D

    Ditto :)

    Congrats Glam :)

    Yes, but realistically, if he was here, one of us would be snoring! :rotfl:

    I think Katie's boots were a hit, everytime we took them off she put them straight back on again!

    We're here for people to rant too! It's not selfish. I hope the union turn out to be useful.

    I love the boots. I think V might need some purple boots too. :o
