    My Hounsing Ben is a complete mystery to me hun. I tell them what they need to know and hope for the best! Their letters always say different to what I get. Whereas TC are always on the nail except when I get those little random payments.

    Just so you know, this was my first month of the tax year so the payments were a little different to how they will be usually (similar to the way council tax is slightly bigger the first month) but it will settle and it is on the paperwork :) just not the random little bit. Does my head in that bit :D

    Glad you had such a lovely day with LL. No wonder it tired him out. Don't rule out naps all the time hun. Sometimes routines can be stretched by allowing a nap when you need a late one with him. And other times, he will just need some extra sleep but still go to bed on time. It isn't set in stone, but as long as everyone knows the general rule it gives you both something to work to :)

    Amazed by the fried chicken!! Very clever. :D xxx

  • Hey, it's your thread, you're allowed to plan/waffle as much as you like!

    You are doing great things with LL you know. As he grows up, it'll be these afternoons that he remembers, cooking with you in the kitchen, learning about food, playing in the park. :D great stuff xx

    i had a little random payment last week which seemed totally out of the blue.. but was told in my last letter that on the 27th and every 4 weeks thereafter i'd get XX amount.. and then it came in ready for the 27th at a totally different amount :p and uhm.. well i'm just glad it's more and not less but it may be due to me sending them my altered figures and this will be the amount i will get every month.. but just haven't had the confirmation letter yet. all in all, not really worried at all because it's money coming inward :cool:... as long as i don't end up in that horrific "now pay it all back" scenario :rotfl::p xx

    stacey dooley - I came across her documentaries a few years ago when she did one about ireland and the poverty line, I do enjoy watching her programs she did a good one about adoption the other year, i see her current ones are about drugs, she is very brave with what she does, she fits in well for BBC3... wonder is she is related to Shaun Dooley???

    Glad to hear you had a busy day outside in the fresh air, I have been doing housework today so haven't even got out of my PJ's naughty Westie....

    My fingers are crossed for PPI hitting your account soon hopefully before the DD are due on the CC....

    also i forgot to tell you, I traditionally go on the London--->Brighton Mini Run every year (I have a Cooper).. and this year I missed out on tickets but my 2 lovely friends I used to work with and always go to the Mini Run with have managed to get me a ticket :D it is on May 17th.. LL can go too and will love that.. (he's not been with me before).. and our car will just have to go with his lil war wounds on.. something to brag about to the other minis "think this is bad, you should see the state of the bus" :)

    See you there, Levi I go too as my parents own green mini - the last made of the old coopers :-) although it adorned with stickers as they did the Italian Job mini run a few years back in it, and that Im only 40mins from Brighton

    Amazing Westie! Cu there! Its the big anniversary this year (30years I think?) so is a very popular one.. tickets sold out almost straight away but my friends are diehards and kept checking back every day to see when more released and struck gold... we all have the "new" (mines 2004) BMW coopers which i'm sure your parents would pour scorn on but we love them all the same :D xx
