ss- have you been able to post on bingoport?

i think they must have removed my posting privileges for posting too similar posts. its the only thing i can think of and they still havent responded to my emails to say why i cant post. also saying my mobile hasnt been verified when it has. i just want to redeem my points now and leave it.

That's probably the same for me Jillie I was at 9000 points too *hmph* I'll try to play for a £5 voucher and if I manage it then I'll redeem it and leave it. Shame, I was doing well.

@MV - ((Hugs)) Is today your first day without OH? I hope it goes well for you. Personally I'm a little worried at the thought of having OH home for 5 weeks

@SusanC - thanks for your response. I checked with work and I was indeed underpaid by 1 day (for the new year bank holiday). So that's that sorted. Thanks.

I'm just playing the points anyway Jillie, I won 400 just now so am still at 9000 and it'll only take another couple of wins to pop me over the top for the Amazon voucher.

Hi all,

Sorry to just jump in but I have a question I was wondering if any of you could help me with. I've got an 18mth old and another due in 7 weeks! I'm still undecided about getting a double buggy or just a hook on seat for the back of a normal buggy as at the moment my 18mth old refuses point blank to get in her buggy as she wants to walk everywhere, so I'm worried I'm going to end up with a double that's never used. Or is it going to be a case of when she see's the new baby in the buggy she's going to want to go in?

We're looking at the Obaby zoom as ideally I wasn't keen on the stack them high ones, but would this be a better option if my eldest isn't going to use it?

Any help would be great

A double buggy was the biggest waste of money for me with the older two. There was a 15 month age gap and I used it probably for 3 months if that and once DD could walk well she refused to get in. Personally I'd just get a buggy board type thing. I'd have been better of keeping DD in the buggy and carrying DS in a sling the first few months till she walked better.

MV I'm glad you're feeling more positive

SS I'm really jealous. I want to go somewhere. Anywhere but here. Somewhere where the housework is someone else's job

Re Double buggies, I had one for my twins, if I found out I was having another one now, (after I'd finished bashing my head into a rock in protest at my contraceptive stupidity) I'd be buying a phil & ted. But there would only be a 14mth gap and I also have an 8 year old and twin 6 year olds, contending with a massive double buggy as well would kill me. lol.

I had my meeting with the local school today The new acting head is brilliant. With her the school are now clamping down on discipline, which was highlighted in the ofsted report last summer (when they got an overall grade of 4 :eek:) but that was before they had the new head.

They've also rearranged their classes into a much more sensible system and will seperate the twins if I want to which the old haid had said no. It used to be mixed years based on ability now they still have mixed year classes but based on age. Which I like, especially in the lower school as poor squeak will only just be 4 when she starts school.

I asked if the girls could come and have a look around because DD1 mentioned it, and she said that's fine just call the office to arrange when

Just had to share this one! Josh having a right old grizzle!

Aww bless him.

I was looking at your thumb compared with his head in the picture, and it seems like such a long time ago since mine were that tiny

I'm off to work this afternoon in the Durham area, then going straight to Josh's school for parents night. He's picking his options so it's important we make the right choices based on guidance from his teachers. I've already been warned not to embarrass him. What a cheek
