Well, will only keep bubs in it for a small amount of time and the rest of the time will use without the attachment as I've just noticed that there is a viewing window in the hood, so I can still keep an eye.

Yay, OH is coming down for the weekend (not like he has a choice, unless he wants to move into the doghouse permanently ) so I need to go and start getting the chicken ready. Now I've never roasted a chicken by myself so will definitely have to enlist g-mother's help to make sure it's cooked properly

Dusty, silly question but would the insurance company not give you money rather than a voucher? Tell them the item is sentimental value therefore not something you could (or would want to) replace. Might be worth a try...
Failing that I'd look into selling the voucher itself if you can do that - it would be worth more to someone that way as it could go towards something specific that they want...

I spent my voucher in 3 goes. It wasn't like a paper voucher - it was a bit like a credit card type thing. So the money that I spent kept coming off as I spent it. Not sure if yours is the same Dusty!?!

Course.. if you'd like a ring there is no harm in that is there?! The way I see it, his money is yours so it's not like you're buying your own ring! Just making sure you get one you like! hehehe!

You also have no chance of the insurance people giving you the money for it. I tried my bestest and it was definitely a no go! I personally think they have a deal with these places as my voucher also covered HM Samuel and Ernest Jones. They probably get a percentage of the claim amount back.

Lots of options for you though hun! Boy i'd love a jewellery shop lol!

Oh yeah... and I had a year to spend it on mine. It came with the letter that came with the card.

Thanks Ema - The voucher was originally for my jewellery and OH's rolex which was also taken but OH has bought a replacement Rolex so the £700 left on the voucher isn't what it was originally worth - does that make sense?

I think I need to chat with OH as some of the jewellery taken was his too (his dads chavvy gold )
but he has just said for me to spend the remaining £700 on what I want. I think he is expecting me to buy jewellery with it though. I guess i should involve him in the decision - I do know he is desperate for me to get a new car though so that may swing it.

Charlie - that is exactly what we have - a credit card thingy. Valid til July 2012 so no rush to make a decision but obvs I want a new car NOW!

Don't suppose you fancy buying it off me do you? for the reduced price of £699 - ha ha...x:)

I also have printed off a selection of engagement rings from jewellers, that I would like - at a variety of prices. And have even been in the shop trying them on with him - I'm........................still..........................waiting.............................

It would be good if you can find somewhere that sells the pushchair you want and then have a go with it in the shop.
I find so many of them hard to push as I'm quite short and can't always get the angle right to get up kerbs etc..

Good news about OH - re the roast chicken - stick peeled onion or garlic up bot (if you want to be posh) - olive oil or fat and salt and pepper on skin - then cover with foil and cook for about an hour (depending on size) - stick a fork or sharp knife in and if juices are clear it's cooked if juices run red or pink leave in for longer.

Hope you have a good weekend x

I saw it in boots and tried it out with and found it comfy to use so all is good. :j

Ahhh we make make it with garlic, chicken knorr, lemon, more lemon, some more lemon and olive oil. Grandmother will check it before I take it out of the oven so I don't salmonella anyone :rotfl:

can I have some advice please? I really need to buy some more maternity jeans. I have Mothercare over the bump ones (now minus 2 inches from the bottom, thanks to my scissors :cool:) but they keep slipping down. Im thinking of getting under the bump M&P ones, maybe these ones

http://www.mamasandpapas.com/product-boyfriend-jeans-denim/s0004975/type-s/?item1=S723B07M6&item2=Please+select...&quantity=1&h_item=S723B07M6&id=s0004975&type=s&add=

but im not sure what their sizes are like. should I just get my usual size, or go bigger?
So far any tops I have bought are all just my normal size, but I dont hink ive had anything from M&P before. Newlook only seem to have 32 and 34 leg online.

I have some M+P jeans (cheapy new ones on ebay ). I probably could've done with a size smaller, but they do have elastic in the waist that can be adjusted, so they now fit.

I think I must be a bit rehydrated as I finally went for a wee Now trying some crisps as I'm strving, but don't fancy anything much that we have in the house. Fingers crossed they stay put....
