My wife got this earlier in the year - it's supposed to be so mothers-to-be can eat healthy food as that costs more it seems. It is a bit odd really but I'd like to know if it did change anyone's dietary habits.0

hhehe not quite but with child benefit you usually get those who say it was their choice to have kids so don't claim it, have no need to claim it, have no intention of claiming it. Others with no kids come in with the I object to paying for your kids type answers. I just expected a bit more of a variance.What you expected most to tell lies

Well thats not too bad. Leaves you £50 for shoes.
My change bag was £12
It's a nightmare trying to find a suitable "man" change bag though. They all seem to be covered in daisies (to me anyway, it's the only flowers I know
)
Hmmm, never posted about changing bags before, this is new
