    Oh and CiN of course, he will need a pound and no uniform.

    Ooh, thanks for reminding me. I have a horrible feeling that DS2 is supposed to take some things into school for the shoebox appeal tomorrow. He told me earlier in the week and I have forgotten. Need to look on the website and see what we can cobble together that is suitable. Or I could text OH who is on his way home and see if he can stop at the shop and find something.

    Hope all goes well Pigpen.

    I am under orders to rest a bit while I get rid of this infection but I feel fidgety. I could try and stir up enough enthusiasm to wrap a few Xmas presents up I suppose!

    Safe arrival vibes for the Junior PigPenlet/Penlette.


    Have not done much and don't feel much better for it, but hopefully I'll feel bright-eyed and bushy tailed tomorrow.
    Better is good enough.
  • I have a red sweatshirt:T age 8-9 (child is 7) but no leggings. She has had a fit at the idea of wearing a red skirt with black leggings as elastigirl can't be a super in a skirt :mad: going to pop to sainsbos in the car in a bit.... :mad::mad::mad:

    Why are they starving sfter they've eaten tea at the childminders?? And the cm bought littlest a coat from the cs after spilling Ribena all down her on a trip to the library and museum. It's beyond hideous.
    And she's crying and a bit feverish so I'm getting her asleep now hope she's not coming down with anything. And I'm on the rota to run play group tomorrow :eek::eek:

    update

    (p5)

    teacher has been off so I have been covering *kerching*

    anyhoo...

    this *new* motor was bought by my B-i-L for some reason I have not yet got to the bottom of as a spare(!). Then he heard the old jalopy 'clunking' so it was decided I needed a new car. Now it may be that my parnets have stumped up for it, or the major part of it, I am not sure.

    What I DO now know is this was to have been my Christmas present but then my sisters developed the idea of a family secret santa (see last week's thread) so it appears I can have the car ASAP.

    Shame I JUST taxed the jalopy! However I can get it back if I SORN it.

    I have ironed, and washed up and done a Christmas errand for a pal while helping on a trip to the museum today (with the kiddies, but I was brought back at lunchtime to work with other kiddies).
