    Maybe because your so relaxed and easy going that's why she didn't invite you:D



    its because we don't earn as much money as they do, and unfortunately that's what it comes down to with them. My kids are better behaved and do very well at school, hers not so good. Karma comes and bites people in the !!!. I will wait patiently for that moment :rotfl


    Been out all morning as taken my little goalie to a goalkeeping academy. He loved it. Had to laugh as he said as its expensive do we have to eat pot noodle all week, had to laugh at that one we only do pot noodle on an afternoon if all school clubs and swimming has a half hour gap lol

  • Thanks bubbs for the help however I don't think I will be doing a shop,

    just tried printing my voucher out and the bar-code in the bottom right corner has printed on the top right corner and the part were it says 'coupon can be used by:' is blank along with "valid until:" part

    has this happened to anyone else? do you think they will still accept the voucher?

    on the bright side I'm LOVING the mother in law stories making me giggle ;)

    both my outlaws are gone now but all his life they favoured hubbys sister to him . when grandkids came along her kids were favoured over ours
    bdays and xmas our kids got 1 toy from the poundshop her kids starting 30 odd years ago got £20 and it went up each year
    when mil was in hospital i took the fil every day and picked him up every night..one evening i asked as sil is here why didnt you ask her to bring u home he said i didnt want to put her out...she died first he went 3 years later.. hubby and his sister went to the reading of the will...she was left the house all the contents and 32k in money
    hubby was left 6k in money ... note was left to be read to him
    it said......you are probably wondering why we left so much to your sister and so little to you...answer is simple we never wanted you to marry your wife...
    sister has been married 3 times divorced twice...we have been married for 37 years in november
    am i sorry theyre both gone ? lol no... is hubby ? nope :rotfl:
