Four years! It might be that long again before I recover from this one and his hourly feedings

Is it really, Blimey, just shows how long we have been keeping this up then lol. Good luck with the feeds, I fed my last one until she was 19 months lol, said I would feed her until she got teeth and didnt get any until 19 months.

Massive congratulations sugarspun and that was a great reason for being MIA.

Hope you and the smally are doing well. I fed mine for 10 hours then they went to special baby care and found they were allergic to milk. My fault use to drink 8 pints a day lol

Well done on your christmas planning as well

Well I had some good news . Sort of OH said I could have his old car to eBay ...it's an older run about Woop woop , he went out his morning and someone put a big dent in the bonnet :-( so don't know what to do with it now

rufusdog52

Oh Susan, what a flipping shame. May be someone will still buy it?

Rufus- I don't know whether to get it fixed or just sell it.. It it an older one but oh suggested getting a bonnet from the scappers. Think he's going to pop it to garage see what they think

Susan a friend of mine refused to scrap her old car complete instead she ebayed/local free papered the parts /lights/seats/winders/wheels (taking off only the small bits before selling) etc then scrapped the remainder she madefar more money that way. Look on ebay at your cars parts you never know you might be better off trying that than fixing it or selling with the dent.

Going to town later, I have decided I need to look in the works after al your posts! I will take a bag of books to the book exchange as isorted someout yesterday.

Hi all

Sugarspun - all the best to you and your family :T

That's a brilliant idea with the identical stockings.

Rufus, I agree it doesn't seem like four years at all.

You never guess where I bought those envelopes I was after? Tescos lol Couldn't believe it, 25 for £1. Just to be picky they weren't exactly what I was after eg they had double sided sticky flap and I wanted gummed but I grabbed two packs in case they ran out. Never noticed them before. Right on the bottom shelf hidden away.

Susan hope you sell the car ok.

mum2one - Miss Hoodies is a very lucky girl, sounds like you've all had a good weekend and more interesting things to do this week.

You'll laugh but as I'm so out of touch with youngsters when I read her main present was a notebook I was imagining a nice journal lol until I finally realised you must have meant one of the small laptops.

congratulations on the new arrival sugarspun

susan hope you still manage to get the car sorted and make some money from it

angela glad you found the envelopes you were after.

hope all are well and plans are on track
