    We had that here! My son, 2 boys and 1 girl, all aged about 17!!! I had to go in as the dog was also in there and wanted to get out for a pee. They were all just sprawled across the bed asleep. Though son was cuddling in to the girl, he swears they're just friends. :cool: Why some kids wont just admit thay have a girlfriend is beyond me sometimes!!!

    I did see the picture and I can't say what made me laugh the most as if DD2 reads this I would be not be flavour of the month. But what one of the boys was doing did make me giggle. And these are future doctors. :eek:

    I'm pretty sure they are all just friends as she did ring me up for relationship advice about another boy the other week.

    I actually think that it is very healthy for both sexes to get along very well as friends I think it looks towards a brighter future for humanity. :)

    Evening all, thoughht I might pose a shopping question for a change..
    Okay, someone after my own heart, Mr. J. Daniels
    1L in Sainsburgs is £26.00, therefore it would make it £23.40 if I bought it in Adsa...right?
    700ml is £17 in Tecso, therefore £15.30 ins Adsa...right?
    So, the 700ml works out at £21.86 a litre, and is the best buy, and should compare okay?

    Discuss please :D

    Totally agree and it was always a decision for me and the wifey that we wouldnt buy phones until they are much older but unfortunately technology / kids didnt keep pace with our decision and decided to move on at a faster pace.

    I once got a call from my sister to say my eldest had text her...at 9:30pm :eek:...baring in mind she had been in bed since 8:30...the phone was taken off her at 6pm and returned the next day after school...sentence served for one month strict...never happened since. A lot of our family say Im too strict on my girls but I see it more as strong foundations. They dont swear, they use their Ps and Qs, they always have their homework done (with more set by me which they actually love), eat as a family nearly every night and are in bed on time every night. Yet my neices stay up until they fall asleep, refuse to eat dinner, slap their mums etc...yet still Im the over baring parent...Ya know what, Im proud of who my kids are...

    Dont know why Im baring my soul so much tonight but there ya go lol....

    :T:T well done Bradley, you are totally doing the right thing and the ones who are saying you are too strict are just giving in to their own kids for a quiet life but it is a quick fix for them, they are making a rod for their own back as is already being shown, my kids had strict ground rules too thought the 3rd was a later child and is thoroughly spoiled by all the family and now we are all paying the price for it, he is never happy and always wants more.
    Still wouldn't change him though, would only change my parenting, but i have to say his siblings spoiled him even more than me so i blame them:rotfl:

    1 litre bottles - and mine had none :mad::mad: They will get a delivery in the morning - no good for those at work :mad::mad:

    Ah now Morribobs is one shop I can do - is only 4 miles away ....:)

    Yes Baileys

    1litre bottles on sale for £9 instead of £19 something,

    Limit of 2 per customer.

    There is also a "hint of orange truffle flavour" which was the only other one on offer in addition to the original irish cream.

    As appears in the Baileys thread on grabbit....
    - you also get a til spit for Bailey's chocolate luxe 50cl (save £3) but doesn't begin until 4th Nov. Not sure if til spit is on all purchases of Baileys or just if you buy 2 bottles. The chocolate one is a good price at Morribobs at present but offer ends on the 3rd Nov before you can use til spit. I also got a save £2 of wys £40 til spit.

    There were some earlier reports of free coffee packs attached to some bottles on bailey's thread but non in my store.

    Hope this helps someone.

    Both of these will be xmas presents as I can't stand the stuff.

    Edit - Ahh - see you beat me to it Truly ......

    After Bradley posting kids presents I have a picture of something to upload that was quite a challenge to receive one as a youngster you really thought you had arrived when you had one of these .... Please tell me how to post a picture and I will show you what it is ....in the mean time guesses would be good and put a bit of fun back in here tonight

    My big sister had me guessing for ages what my "big " Christmas present was.
    Four letters beginning with the letter L

    I'd wanted Lego for years and she really had me believing that this would be the year I got my dream present.:T


























    It was a ...............

    I do like the skin to be crispy!
    Wash your taters, and dry off.
    Wipe with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
    Sling in the oven on 220 for an hour.
    Test with a skewer that your spud is cooked, then remove, cut in half, scoop out the flesh and mash in a bowl, crack in a raw egg, a grind of pepper, couple of grinds of salt, half a handful of grated cheddar, a tablespoon of lightly fried chopped onion, and mix well.
    Pop the mixture back into the shells, sprinkle with more cheese and pop under the grill.
    I have been known to add butter, and /or chopped cooked bacon too.

    Oven if you have the time
    Microwave if you don't
    Microwave then oven if you have some time!

    Then fill with butter!


    Other than butter, what other filling would you suggest?
    Please and thankyou!! :):)
