  • Does anyone know if ELC stock Sophie's instore? They have them online with money off and I have a voucher for 20% off which works, making Sophie £8.29 :money:Delivery is a bit steep though so would rather buy instore.
    TIA.
  • Mel - No idea, they’re going to process my changes and send me some paperwork, but I’m to keep an eye on my bank account as I will get the money before the paperwork! Fingers crossed it’s lots we need it.

    Get well soon K & T.

    Mrs I – so pleased the hospital appointment went well, she sounds a little cutie

    Strawberrypud – no advice just a great big (((((HUG)))))

    Hello Merfe, congratualations on you little boy, diclofenac is good stuff isn’t it?

    Ladybird – that sounds like something to try

    Had a uneventful day, picked Katie up from Playgroup, been to see my Dad for a bit of Grandad, Grandaughter time, Katie (before we left our house) decided that she would like to walk home from Grandads house, I used the buggy as it’s a bit beyond her walking stamina. I wrapped her up like a sausage

    Top Half: Vest, t-shirt, cardigan, coat, hat, gloves
    Bottom Half: tights, leggings, jeans

    Then I wrapped a cot quilt round her then zipped her into her buggy snuggle – she was warm as toast when I took her out when I got home.

    My baby is very poorly sick:( I got her in at the doctors this morning, she is now on anti-biotics for a bad chest and sorely, red, inflamed ears and throat. She has also got drops for conjunctivits... thankfully K seems to be on the mend.

    Hope she feels better soon xx
    I have a baby that wants attention ALL THE TIME and a toddler (no explanation needed). Today I cannot get a single thing done because of the pair of them and I really need to make important phone calls (never mind the cooking/cleaning etc). They are constantly moaning and it is driving me up the wall.......AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!

    It's a nightmare when you have days like that! Hope you managed to get the phone calls made.

    My eyes have dry patches, the left one has a big one, so i need to get some special lube stuff from my gp and go back to specsavers in a week to review it :(

    Hope they feel better soon xx

    Had bother with my left lens today. My eye felt gritty and I kept rubbing it, then my vision in that eye went blured and it really started hurting. Had a look in my eye in the car visor mirror and the lens had vanished! Poked about in my eye and found it folded in half and wedged right on the top of my eyeball?! Didn't have any glasses or solutions or anything with me, so had to rinse it in bottled water and pop it back in again :o Took them out when I got home and my eyes feel ok now.

    Nutella is amazing spread thickly on rich tea biscuits, or hobnobs, or just about anything :p

    Nutella on a digestive cures all sorts of woes that a toddler has ;)

    Managed to get out and get all my calls done that needed to be done this week. Main roads were ok, but the side roads and car parks are slippy. It kept snowing too, so I kept getting wet and cold.

    Popped out just now to do an audit and the roads are starting to freeze again. Had a little slide down a bank but thankfully no harm done.

    Charlotte fell in my Mam's pond this morning. It's usually fenced off, but my Mam had moved the fence while she split the plants in baskets in the pond and had forgotten to put the fence back. My Mam was in the shed when she heard a scream and Charlotte had walked on the ice on the pond and fallen through. Luckily the pond has a sort of shelf that the baskets sit on, so she was only thigh deep. The water was icy cold though and she got a terrible fright. Charlotte is fine now but refuses to talk about it.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Wrote a big message and then hit the power button with my knee and turned it off PMSL!!!

    Sad news here today :( my great uncle died this afternoon, he was quite old and has survived the past 14 years after having a brain stem stroke, he is the only living survivor of this type of stroke. he didnt have any movement/speech etc and my aunty was wonderful and looked after him at home all these years! she is a much better woman than me as i couldnt do what she has and given up everything to care for him. I feel sad but not upset as i know he had a wonderful life and a very loving family and he couldnt have asked for any better.

    Hope everyone is good and hugs to all those who arent! Charlie still has this strange sickness thing which cannot be explained as he seems well and full of trouble!!
    Snow was thin here and didnt last thankfully although the kids are desperate!
    What's for you won't go past you
  • Hugs Caz.
