    Not getting a large family present this year, asked ds (7) what he wanted & he said electric toothbrush! So if anyone sees a rechargable one for a reasonable price please post it here.

    Hugs to all having bad times or looking after those who are unwell.

    My local tesco's always seem to have some reduced, to make way for more stock. but they are not on the website, just in store. always on an 'end' near the pharmacy type stuff, never with the toothbrushes ha!

    theres an Braun Oral-B Vitality Precision Clean Rechargeable Toothbrush on spamazon for £17.45 with FREE Delivery in the UK. looks like its a 2pin unit so youd need an adaptor with it.

    I'm seriously considering either a caravan but we only have a little punto or selling car and getting a little camper or motor home that would be our car too. I've no idea.

    Love and hugs to all x

    I keep dreaming of having my own wee caravan , but i have no where to keep it (live on a dodgy bend so wouldnt wantto park it on the street) plus i would need to upgrade my car with no money , that isnt easy haha)

    Haha thanks it is now. The smell finally vanished around Monday evening, but I was so scared there was gonna be a fire, but also because my OH owns the house (I moved in 5 years after he bought it) and didn't want him to come home to no house :rotfl:]

    He was a bit mad but thinks it's funny now

    LULU aww hope you feel better soon honey

    Thanks chick, I'm really drained and the pain is driving me mental.

    A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.
