    KitKat, always phone, take the date, time, and FULL name of the person you speak to. It's not worth getting overpaid at any stage. X

    Sami, your bank charge would have been more for an unpaid direct debit, better that they paid it.

    Big hugs Mel, it sounds like you've had a horrible day :(

    Miss M likes her food better from the floor as well, sometimes when things are getting on top of me I spread a blanket on the floor, put her plate down there and pretend it's a picnic and not just my baby eating off the floor :o


    Can I ask a Christmas related question please? How many shiny items does a person need on a tree? I've never decorated a Christmas tree before. I was planning on getting a 4-5 foot one, about how many hanging things would I need?

    Also, I have a code for free delivery from Next which I am not allowed to post but if anyone wants it please PM me.

    OMG not caught up from this morning, at all but just had a thought: How lucky would you be if Sugar was paired up to buy your xmas pressie for a secret santa you may or may not be in with her in real life where personal details are allowed to be swapped!!
