    HI JAKES-MUM

    Hope you had a great time at Miss Lily's party :rotfl::rotfl:

    x LC2

    Helloooooooooooooo LC2 :wave:

    ooooo the party went great, a few mums said it was such a good idea and the kids loved the games. They were a bit shy to begin with but then a couple got glitter tattoos and face painted and there was no stopping them! They raced through the games so fast that after tea we had to shut the games down as we were short on prizes, and play musical statues and musical bumps :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Miss Lily has loooooooooads of prezzies to open tomorrow, but burst into tears when we sang happy birthday to her :( think shes too shy to be able to handle that kind of attention :(

    But shes now happily sat reading a book she got and is eagerly awaiting tomorrow when she can open the rest (shes only opened 2 :o) on her actual birthday :)

  • NEW JOINER ALERT

    Hello... I've had a little look around and I am ready to join. At the end of 2011 I was fed up of being so wasteful and not having anything to show for working soooo hard. I had some change around the house so I've not lost too much ground despite being a late joiner.

    I've potted what I found.

    I can't wait to snatch me some roadkill... the Mr UBH has been fully briefed. The poor man, I've chewed his ear off today.

    Wish me luck!

    Hi UBH

    Welcome to the thread Sue our boss will be along soon to give you a number and ask you to read the first post as these explain everything and are very helpful in fact you cannot manage without reading them . They are very important. If you have any questions just ask but perhaps not me or Jakes-mum :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Sparky the official counter upper will be along soon unless he is at work or searching the streets for road kill (money found in the street)

    Jakes -mum and myself are your role models we are trying to recruit more people like us there are a few like us on here already we help Sue and Sparky lots.


    We hope you enjoy saving on here

    XLC2


    There you are JAKES-MUM that's got to be worth a couple of points perhaps we could have one of those star charts when we get to 20 we get a real gold star what do you think!!
