    Piggers, this reminded me when my DD was teething...

    They took forever, she had some toast crusts and was hacking at her gums, :eek: she looked like Draculas daughter with blood dribbling down her chin and she sat there giggling.

    She did have 4 teeth for that little trick tho...:p

    She has had toast and cheese and rice cakes and gingerbread men and nothing makes them appear. her bottom 2 look like they have blisters over them and her gums are really red.

    I know it's an ordinary shed toots but I am impressed all the same :) Looks like another 9 jobs off the list (if I counted correctly!)

    AnW'smum we have a porch awning for our 'van - it's super easy to put up, and we've used it more times than the full size awning tbh. Ours is big enough for a (small) table and chairs. Can't remember make/model atm :o

    I have ordered one of these which I hope Miss A and I can manage! It has to be easier than our 5 legged bradcot :eek:. If all goes well it will replace the bradcot, (which has been great but needs 2 adults (at least!) to put up as a certain flypal will attest to. We shall test it at Easter so if you hear screams of frustration from the Durham area you know who it is :rotfl:

    *sends forks to LL* ... and a spatula.... the forks for stabbing eyeballs of those who vex you and a spatula for smacking bottoms...

    I am cross!!!!

    My 2 youngest sisters and my stepdad nagged me to get my mother a kindle for christmas and I said no because I always end up paying for it.. they promised faithfully I'd get the money.. stepdad gave me £60 leaving £90 .. and my sisters paid nothing... Now one of them just asked me to go to pub tonight and I said I am too skint cos everyone and their dog owes me money.. she said how much has L paid and she'll sort the rest.. I said nothing.. so she went offline!!!!!!!!!!!

    I am livid.... Unless her lappy exploded ... She gets £91 a week and does nothing.. it wouldn't hurt her to give me the money she owes.

    Cheeky mare moaned about my mother moaning.. I said well she has forgotton I exist.. I have seen her once since the beginning of February (they live one street up from me so no excuse) rang her once to ask for some of the money she owes me and she messaged me on fb one day last week.. She will miraculously remember where I am when she wants money!
