Voted!
MFD Isn't there somewhere on here you're allowed to ask for votes?, did you not post on the Stokke thingy?
TBH I have got loads of PM's asking for votes since I posted on there...and I got told off by the Board Guide because a different BG put another of my posts in there...so of course I had to comment to tell him that I wasn't duplicating posts....
Basically I wouldn't bother unless you were desperate
My baby loves his new coat very much....he sobbed when I took it off....please listen to MFD - she is a wise woman

I did it with 1/2 cup of double cream, 2 tbsp butter, 100g dark chocolate and 150g milk chocolateEvansangel wrote: »I was scratching the hair off with the free scraper so now i have marks on my legs and arms :rotfl:
Em, the cake looks nom nom nom. How do you make your Ganache topping?
I warmed the cream and butter til the butter was melted, then added the chocolate and stirred it til the chocolate melted. I dont know if thats how its meant to be done but they called it ganache in the book that came with the mould!!Mummy to

James tried to make up with the boy today. He was standing on his own at the bus stop so James asked him to join the group he was talking to, but the boy just ignored him. Then on the bus on the way home, James asked if he wanted to be friends again, but he just said no and turned away. Told James just to stay away from him for a couple of days and see if the other boy mellows in his own time.Here I go again on my own....0 -
The crazy real-doll ladies are on Living channel now. (guess who got herself a shiney new, working, virgin box!)
It reminded me, that my Mum was in Liverpool last Sunday afternoon and she saw a lady (40+) with a big old fashioned coach built pram, with huge faffy lacy covers on it. She walked past and thought that doesn't look like a real baby.
So, she dragged Dad around to walk past again for another look. It was a crazy lady with a real-doll in a pram! :eek::beer:0 -
On the walking thing. Amber can do a few steps (2-4) on her own but hasn't been making rogress. I am not bothered at all but the nursery has commented on it and asked if I'm worried. I can't remember when DS1 walked and obviously DS2 doesn't count. But I was under the impression that 14months is not that unusual for them not to be 'independant walkers'? Given that Miss Molly is just walking now and she is our bench mark (cos Amberusually follows her a few weeks after which works out right going by their due dates) I'm not worried at all.
I've been a bit
because lovely Amber's been toddling about and Molly shows no sign of wanting to - yesterday's two steps were a one time thing and today she's been lifting her legs in the air so nobody can put her in standing position even *rolleyes* - they'll start independently walking when they're ready. There's a girl at Gymboree who walks really well and is three days older than Molly but she doesn't say anything more complex than AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA so I assume they've put their energies into other things.
*loves* all the cute photos

I had an epic journey this afternoon, long story follows:
It started out I had to go to the post office and catch a particular train to meet a friend a bit outside Munich for a trip to the only TK Maxx in Bavaria, apparently a new opening very cheap sort of outlet. 15 people ahead of me in the PO line with 35 minutes before my train, no bothers except that there was only one man serving and he was an officious gobsheen telling everyone their labels were crooked or they needed to tape the edges of their parcels better and generally being as slow as he could manage :mad: I made the train by the skin of my butt (shaved off as the doors closed on it) and realised I didn't have a ticket for the whole journey.
Whatever, says me, until one stop outside where my monthly pass covers and the ticket checkers get on :eek: Jumped out to avoid a big fine and to buy a ticket, and waited 20 minutes for the next one, arriving at Friend's car ten minutes late and then it was a really long drive (about an hour from the train; I hadn't realised) plus we had to detour to pick up both his kids, drop one at a music class and we arrived in a mad rush for that only to find that Friend's ex had told him 15 minutes earlier than it actually was and at the same time that his other son needed picking up from a kids' party ten minutes away. Eventually we stopped in at the party and waited till it was time to pick up the first kid then headed over to TKM and OMG it was amazing, loads of amazing bargains and designer stuff - the one I didn't buy was D&G suits €200 from €1600. I'm delighted with the stuff I found, could easily have spent 3-4x as much. But then the boys needed feeding and we had to stop and do that, then they needed to be dropped off elsewhere and eventually Friend dropped me at a further-out station instead of the closer one as planned, so I got home about 8:30. Not good, although the trip was great.
And now I am exhausted. Husband appears to still not be talking to me, but I am hopeful that this too shall pass and I am off to bed. Goodnight lovelies, :j and
