    Great photos there. Is he really 3? Wow. Love all the curls. My boys would look like that but I shave their heads. :rotfl:They get curly as it gets longer. The decorations were fabulous. Are they vista print? He will remember that one for a long time. Well done. Fab mummy :beer:Now have that drink.

    Elysia - i have not done the photo yet either. Now, before anything else.

    Wow, lovely party Legend, it looks like everyone had a great time! Your DS is such a cutie :)
    My DS has already asked if he can have a party for his 4th birthday in November. He had a mini party at his nursery for his 3rd but he wants one at home this year. He already has quite a list of friends he wants to invite!

    My 5 things on Ebay finished tonight. They did so much better than the usual 99p I get, I made just over £25 so I'm really pleased :D
    Making money for Christmas 2012!

    Your DS is like mine then legend, he was 3 in May, and I have had to buy 4-5 school trousers for nursery, and he could easily wear some of Ds1s T shirts. He is so solid. A little chubby round the edges, but not really fat. I'm hoping he doesn't get too big for the trousers I bought before September.

    Someone shout at me. I have still not done my shop and scan photo. I am doing it NOW. Fish for brains tonight.

    Hi all, hope everyone is wel :wave:

    Just a quick message to say our internet is down so money making not currently happening :mad:

    Goodness knows what is hapening as our provider can't find a problem and there isn't a problem our end we have to wait until later today to hear any news so 'm very unhappy.

    Bought a 3 dongle which actually has great reception but eats the usage so quickly. Have a piney to be done before sunday and if you miss just one you get thrown off the panel, and s&s wont be happy if I miss a week either. Sigh, it never rains but pours eh lol would have gone spare without a dongle. Very mse though, used an argos voucher and it was reduced so cost £5.99 :)

    On the bright side it's my brothers brthday so me and dd are going up there whilst hubby has quiet time to watch the grand prix qualifying.

    Hopefully we will have internet when I get back :(

    Hope to catch up with you all later x

    If your going to be without your main broadband for a while, I would suggest getting TMobile pay and go, - I have one for when we go away, top up, either goes £2.00 per day, £10 for a week, or £15 for a month, and the useage is unlimited on them. Minimum you can top up is £5, def worth looking into, think its on offer for £10 at Argos, when I got mine I pd £20, use to have a contract one with them, and then it ended up cheaper for me to go pay + go with them. xx

    Glad thr party went off ok, it sounded great, love the pic, very jealous of the ringlets, I had ringlests till I was about 6. Hope you don't me being cheeky, but Avon do a kids detangling spray, last batch we got were 5 for £5, there an absolute godsend on Miss Hoodies hair, may be worth a try xx

    hope everyone had a good day, and the weather held, we had a couple of showers, but had a good weekend, did a stall at Miss Hoodies school yesterday, and then another school today, and between the two made £82, should have been £10 extra, but taking Miss Hoodie is not a good idea, I'm hungry... I'm bored, ... can I go for a walk around.... but bless her she used some of her money yesterday, as bless her heart, her class had a stall, and one of the items was a book of stories the kids had done, she brought two, one for us, and one for her Irish grandparents. She has an absolute heart of gold.

    Just not looking forward to 2mor, we've got the cafcass meeting, and court on Thurs, hoping we can get a final answer this week. xx
