Morning all

The bears are safely with me. I managed to get them after work turns out our new argos has later opening times than the ones in town.
I must get dressed Harper's dog food is meant to arrive between 9.13 and 10.13 then I am finally at the doctors at 11.10.

Love and hugs to all xxx

Smile moment for today: I just got a pm saying I've won the Paris travel guide and should receive it in 2-3 weeks!! :j

Hopefully it's 2 not 3, or I could end up getting back from my trip and finding it on my doorstep!

Thanks for all the crossed fingers ladies, I'm sure good vibes made all the difference

Good afternoon. Quick question it's DD's 4th birthday next month and she's having a Doc McStuffins party. I am going to get some cheap plasters and bandages and ask the children to bring a toy each to "Make Better". Can anyone think of anything else I could get? Was thinking maybe a cheap toy doctors bag and they can share the tools out of it.

Congratulations on your win Arthien.

My thoughts are with you for this afternoon mrs-moneypenny.

what about some little note books for making books of boo boo's?
or mini clip boards with a check list on?
worth checking the £shops for doctor kits

Could you maybe get the kids some cheap white 'doctor coats' (aka a bloke's old work shirt)? Even if it's one or two to share while they're being the doctor, that might be fun. You could paint a big red cross or something on the back to show that it's the doctor's special coat, and they can then use the tools (stethoscope etc) to make teddy better.

ETA: just spotted these on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Childs-Doctors-Medical-Great-Role/dp/B005PX2G6S/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1391005295&sr=8-2&keywords=toy+doctor for the cheap option, or http://www.amazon.co.uk/Peterkin-4407-Medical-Carrycase/dp/B000RPDPSC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391005404&sr=8-1&keywords=toy+doctor+set because it's got a cool case and still way under a tenner

ETA 2: The first link was £3.22 when I found it a minute ago, now it's suddenly £4.20, no doubt because some computer somewhere saw me looking at it! What a cheek!

Well, I haven't found much inspiration for bessies 40th birthday but have found a fab idea for another friend's 40th gift.

This bag: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Chocoholic-Since-1974-Birthday-Shoulder/dp/B00CD2VDZO/ref=sr_1_52?ie=UTF8&qid=1390927656&sr=8-52&keywords=40th+birthday

filled with choccie goodies and choccie smellies. Well not too filled, I want to send it in the post as we won't get to see her until after her birthday.
