Morning ladies, hope you're all doing well,

Clairey your little one is the same age as mine and we are going to tackle toilet training soon, when my assignment is over and we have reduced the amount of toys in the living room, and we need to start making note of her usual routine so we can ask her if she needs to go when she normally would need to etc. Not looking forward to it but it has to be done.

Nevermind Chel, they update the BHS site everyday so keep an eye on it, they had lovely tins of jazzies (buttons with sprinkley balls lol) at £1.25 frm £6.50 but I was too slow. My sis and her boyfriend are having a movie hamper this year so that would have been perfect. Theres always tomorrow.

It’s a challenge michelle. I think the last time I redeemed was a similar time to you.

Good luck with the night time training legendmum. My eldest was really good but he hardly ever had a wet nappy in the night. As for my youngest his is always wet through!

Hollie that’s awful hope the woman is ok. It was awful here last night took me ages to get to sleep.

Savvybunny good luck when you start they say girls are usually easier.

My son has managed to do a wee on his potty :j, yeah! I think I was more excited than he was!

I've not noticed it is better at any particular time. Just try and get some mates to sign up if you can, then you will get points when they spin the wheel too.

Claire are we aiming for month end then to cash out? Should be able to do that if we do all surveys on offer, etc. Yay to your DS using the potty. I hate potty training. We waited till DS2 was 2 years 9 months. Every time I tried before that he just messed. We found he was far too big for the potty by then, so pretty much straight on to the loo, and he is still not great now even though it is nearly a year later. He's mostly dry in the night now, but we are quite strict with last drink at tea time, and then we lift him still when we go to bed. He was wet this morning, but only his bottom sheet and PJs were thankfully, and it is only once or twice a week maximum that happens.

opps cornish, hope you are feeling better soon.

Just popped on onep*ll and there are a couple of 15p ones.

Also postcode is up to £70 so make sure you check it's not you!!!

Hi all

I'm back from the inlaws and trying to catch up on housework.

Dad was told on tues his tumour hasn't grown, so no more chemo at the moment. I went about my knee yesterday, and I don't need surgery at the mo, but will be reviewed in 3 months :D

I'm sorry but I can't catch up on the 36 pages I've missed :eek:, so will join in again from here if thats ok ?

I haven't got back into surveys etc yet, but am full of good intentions ! xx

Hollie OMG that's my local too, hope all are OK. Knew it was a bit blowy here but that is scary.

Nickybo, fingers crossed for tomorrow, bet you're all packed & ready now:)

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:at all the potty training stories. Twins start free nursery next week & thankfully have grasped it all over Xmas. However have discovered YT thinks that wiping for no.2's is front only, makes for some lovely discoveries after he takes himself upstairs .

Nickybo - best of luck for tomorrow,so excited for you

Has anyone on here tried the skycig (electronic cigarette)? I am on day 5 of my no smoking and its getting harder not easier!!! Had an email offering me the started kit for £10 instead of £40, very tempted but just wanted to know if anyone had any experience?

Thanks x

Ooh also, havent been getting many surveys and am yet to start on the review sites but i did have an email to say i won somthing on the lottery last night, unfortunately the national lottery site is down so Im not sure how much yet but even £10 would be good!
