    Why is it that the rubbish games, such as this potential 0-0 match, go into extra time rather than the exciting ones with 7-1 scorelines? (No need to answer this: I know really.)

    Watch there be a goal now I've posted this:rotfl:.

    Do you think they delegated the decision as it is too difficult for them to make!

    Dependent on the child, it could be anything from a teddy bear, to lego or a fast car.

    What does he like?

    minecraft? :)

    No idea, it's for charity. The only thing I know the charity is for 12-18 year olds with learning difficulties.

    FC I thought of going the minecraft route, but not sure I would have the time to bake enough layers to make a cube cake.

    Your not the only one who couldnt find them either, looked all over the shop, even by the sandwiches, in the little fridges nowhere to be seen.

    I must have looked like a mad woman with an empty trolley. :rotfl:

    I checked those little fridges too, the nearest I got to coke in glass bottles was a 6 pack in the big store. :( And nothing Brazilian about those.

    I noticed in M earlier that the packs of Pink Lady Apples, that I bought one at £1.24 as part of one of my £5s, were now 99p:(. So, they got more out of me there, the beggars. (And, yes, I mean beggars.)

    My youngest (who is 19) loves teddy cakes…

    He still takes his teddy to bed with him (even when he is working away!!)

    Sometimes I wonder how he has got a girlfriend!!!

    :D:D:D

    :think::think::think: what's in the teddy?

    That is lovely of you PD.

    As it is for charity I would avoid the mcdonalds etc.

    Maybe do a football cake (you could do a world cup)

    or a car, bus, plane? This issue is what level to pitch it at, as many people with LD have high levels of intelligence.

    It is a little forever friends teddy, he has loads of them.. I've been trying to get him to throw them away since he was 12, no luck. He often drives around with a big soft dog looking out of the car window!

    scary!!

    Is this for your bar bill?

    Also what about excursions - do you bother with them, organise your own, wait until you get onboard to decide ...
    Yes, well towards my on-board spend, so bar, and other things. I usually try to book independent trips ashore, or just do my own thing. There are some excellent companies out there, but you have to do your research. This time I am just going to decide when I get there. All a bit too last minute for my liking :o
    With all the O2 offers going do I need an o2 contract? or just the app?

    tia
    Just the app and a free PAYG O2 sim.
