    ok another elite list:rotfl::rotfl:
    another who never went to uni , my parents did not allow me to,
    or go to college even though all my siblings did, I went to work in the family pet shop when I left school, at 15 even though i had applied to carry on my education, am I bitter, do I feel I missed out
    damn right I am I could have had an important job some where making a difference with lots of money, posh house,
    instead of stuck here in the middle of no where with a hoard of needy kids and grandkids, mucking out, growing vegetables, and making jam, :( dont you all feel sorry for me :rotfl::rotfl:

    A resounding 'no' there :rotfl: I love reading your stories about fish freezers and veg swaps etc

    I might have thought twice about going to uni if it was going to cost me that much as I'd done pretty badly at school and spent the entire time thinking I was going to fail. On the other side of the coin, there are plenty of people who go to uni to doss about so maybe they'll be more encouraged to find something that they fancy working at instead

    HAs anyone seen a gd offer on bio oil or something similar. My sis is likely to get pregnancies stretch marks, she has them from growing in her teenage yrs on her shoulders and hips so she would like to try and prevent more if possible. She is going to me tight for money when she has the baby so I'm thinking of stockpiling stuff for her like nappies and baby food
    I have dyslexia, so get used to my spelling and grammar :)

    I'm sure I've seen it near the tills in primark....

    I used olive oil from Wilkos... I went to bed like a chip;) but not one single stretch mark :)

    Nivea Q10 firming on offer in b00ts is meant to be very good too:)

    Excellent thanks Dippydoo. I can use some vouchers for some as well :)

    I've given her my half tub of bio oil. I forgot to use it most of the time but I was lucky. Put almost 5 stone on couldn't sit in the van because the steering wheel got in the way and not one stretch mark

    Yes Moordown not the best of places to get to from here though, it's annoying as there are so many Co-Ops locally.

    Yes step away from the garlic bread and onion rings. ;)

    Very exciting they are both expecting. :T


    We have lots of little co-ops too dotted around, they get everywhere :D

    Yes, both due on the same date in early October. DD1 met with her HR yesterday and she's given them her last day as 2 days before her due date :eek:. I said you may want to re think that nearer the time as she works in town and nobody ever wants to give up their seat on the underground :(

    DD2 also wants to work as long as she can, she only has a short car journey to work so not as bad.

    However, they both want to return to work relatively quickly. DD1 is fortunate in that she can WFH too and plans to return to work early January but DD2 will be returning the beginning of December. Both part time to begin with. I'm having both babies on a Thursday - gonna be like looking after twinlets :rotfl: Gawd I hope they're good :rotfl:
