    I saw the old fashioned toys in Home Bargains, really lovely! I got my eldest a wooden cup and ball for 79p and youngest a drum. I also bought a wooden click clack track for £4.99. Looks quite like this one from the ELC for £17.50...

    I love Home Bargains :D
    You got a bargain with that ... however be prepared to have it in the house for years to come! I bought the old style wooden ELC one for my son was around £10 (bought it 5 years ago!!! and he still has it now and he is 6!!!)

    earthmother - lovely hamper!

    Rusty - lovely as always. Hope things are picking up for you.

    Thankyou :) Things are still bad, although I don't feel as bad ... we are in court on 24th of this month. I have however found out from the CSA that he has threatened one of the women there and refuses to co operate and has demanded that there is no correspondence by phone it all has to be done in writing so the CSA have now sent forms which is has 7 days to comply .... this gives me more ammunition in court (sounds awful as he is claiming he has never missed a payment but I now have proof to say he hasn't paid since feb) Fingers crossed it all goes well and hopefully he will realise what he is doing to our son.

    Thankyou bun bun :D

    Don't you go worrying about him, you just think about your family and what's best for all of you ;)

    Rusty - he's history so push him right to the back of your mind and concentrate and the many positive things you've got in your life.
