    :/ can you take them back to the shop and swap them, if you know where they came from? It might be worth calling them and asking or popping in when you are passing. Or try selling them on eBay, bit of a hassle but new with tags stuff does go for much more money so might be worth the effort.

    Those of you that have found out what team you are, who have you told? We have told anyone who has asked, but my mum doesn't want to know. I was okay with this until I started buying things and realised I can't show her, I want to share my excitment with her.
    I have had many Light Bulb Moments. The trouble is someone keeps turning the bulb off :o

    People have bought us a few bits for the baby, mostly in 3 - 6 months which is great as all our stuff is newborn or 0 - 3. However, most of them have failed to realise it will be winter by then. Not sure what I'm going to do with loads of summer romper suits come December :(
    Holiday to the southern hemisphere? :p
    Ebay is probably your friend - although with the way the weather has been lately you'll likely have freezing days in midsummer and boiling days in midwinter so some variety will be handy!

    One of my closest friend bought us loads of winter baby clothes from Next in 6-9 month for our DD. She was born at the end of December, so obviously it would be Summer when they fit her. We returned them to next and they put the value on a gift card and we bought her something a few months down the line.

    Anyone who's got the Medela Swing 2nd hand care to share how much they paid? There's one on Gumtree near me at the moment for £85 (claiming still in warranty, but as that's only 6 months by the time I use it it will be outside warranty, even if it's transferrable!) and it seems a bit steep for me (I think it failed to sell on ebay at the same price).


    £41.05 on bids on ebay :) inc postage. not in original box but with manuals x

    Sexymouse Only downside to this weekend - daft tabby cat is poorly. Vets had put him on a biscuits only diet cos he was a bit overweight and I was worried about this leading to him getting cystitus but they told me that the risks outweighed the benefits. We were really pleased with him cos he has lost the weight he needed to and he seemed so much happier

    Our cat was over weight when we got him, still needs to lose some but the vet is happy that he can now walk etc. We have him on dry food only which is placed in a ball so he has to work for it. Although I can't bend any more so place it on the table for him.

    I do home the wee is a one off and that tabby cat gets better.

    I'm sure you can take them back to swap?
