    I am so hoping DD1s baby does not arrive early I have my lists organised for next 3 days and hope I can fit it all in. :o

    I should really be trying to get ahead of myself. But old habits die hard. I only give the impression of being organised behind the scenes everything is chaos. :rotfl:

    As we all know TS. Babies have their own timetable. Everything will go out of the window when the little one makes an appearance. It will be wonderful for you all:T

    91& Think I can live with that! :D ,



    Can someone please help and explain where my answer is incorrect? I believe my answers are right, however it marked me as incorrect?


    Apostrophe? (answers)


    1.I will be 30 in two years’ time.


    2.I will be 29 in one year’s time.




    Explanation

    Expressions of time are also known as ‘temporal expressions’. When used in temporal expressions, the apostrophe is placed before the ‘s’ for single units and after for multiple units.


    Thanks

    Sarahdol have you tried the range? They are the cheapest non-charity shops I've found for baskets.

    Failing that- you could try a pretty plant holder- like a little metal bucket looking one not a brown plant pot?

    I called about the telly job and have official confirmation that I have it. Way below the accepted rate for what I do but something to be doing whilst I look for further work! :beer:

    And I'm now a signed up volunteer for the Red Cross. Got a bunch of training to do in the New Year before I get cracking but :T

    Was going to make some hampers up with all the goodies from M & S, but can't find any cheap baskets, have searched about 6 charity shops today, they had loads, but stuff in them and wouldn't sell them to me. I have also tried, poundland, home bargains, wilkos, asda. Anywhere else I can try?????

    Hi, if you have no luck in finding baskets, you could try a gold, silver or red charger plate from Poundland/99p shop/Home bargains etc. Place the items on the plate and wrap with Cellophane and a bow.
