    We're going to Forest Holidays in Cropton

    http://www.forestholidays.co.uk/cabins/locations/north_yorkshire/cropton.aspx

    Staying in a silver lodge so we get a hot tub :D

    Loving how the cabins are named gold/silver/bronze in this Olympic season :rotfl::rotfl:

    I've entered the Cadbury Olympic comp loads but none of my athletes have won anything, haven't heard of 99% of them :rotfl::rotfl:

    Wingo, I saw Asda do a box for £1.67 so will just get some of those then not wasting too many pennies. No point having a dishwasher in my luxury accommodation if I'm not going to use it, I'm used to slumming it on a cheapo holiday ;) but Mr M worked months of overtime to pay for this one so I'm going to make use of everything :rotfl::rotfl:

    On a more down to earth note - can anyone advise about product testing please? I saw an advert through the freepostcode lottery.It is producttesting.uk.com

    Thanks

    In my opinion, it's a load of spam and a way for the company to get your details. ;) It seems my opinion is backed up by others here if you search the company/website in the MSE search. :p

    Hi LM, we were wondering about you, hope you're okay :)

    Had some lovely news today, our friend who cuts our hair only found out she was expecting 4 months ago, she had been having her 'monthlies' as usual but after visiting the doctor about something unrelated he told her she was 5 months pregnant. Well, she had a little boy yesterday, 3 weeks early but he's perfect :D No name as yet, but can't wait to meet him.

    Have a lovely time, Melvis. :) I'd like to go on a Forest Holiday but not sure how wheelchair friendly it would be! I don't need my wheelchair in the house so the cabin wouldn't be the problem. It would be more the "walks" (or wheelchair ride in my case lol) and activities.
