    I still have masses of the little red bags and quite a good stack of the baby wipes, some cotton wool but things like the nappy packs all went into the food bank not long ago.
    a long while ago a very minimal spend on baby stuff resulted in a lot of mr !!!!!! CC points when the baby club was at its best so I've still got a little left. Baby bath is very good to go into handwash bottles and into adult baths - I think it was something like 39p at one stage

    Today I must sort out IKEA storage thingy as I bought drawers to fit in it when away.
    Sorted :D
    Also try on my holiday vests & see if I can get away with my aging arms on show :o:o
    Sorted :D
    And locate a set of those digital travel scales I got loads of a few years back when they were 50p in Ts. I can find heavy manual ones but not the lightweight ones.
    Sorted :D but need a new battery :o

    :D:D:D Well proud. I have got so much done :o

    Hope I've caught you mhoc......this is the wrong squash for sloppy.....you need the Fruit and Barley Summer fruits:o

    yes you did, generally we do Sada on Sundays for free parking

    OH found a Sada receipt on the Home Bargain car park today :D sadly no APG and again the wrong version of Robinson's :(
    And now I really do need some Robinsons - visitors for dinner tomorrow unless they get a better offer and possibly next weekend as well - so I need to hide my expensive cordials as they drink squash by the bucket load :)

    Ds3 unhappy. After all the struggle to get a college to do the a levels he wanted and the stress with exam results. He found out yesterday the college has dropped computer science .:mad: no other college in area is doing all that he wants to do, and the a levels he is left doing he could have done in the nearest college. But is now going to one an hour journey away for no reason.

    Why does he not just change colleges then? They will have only just started so he probably has not missed anything.

    congrats - so is this a surprise baby? was this the reasoning behind the urgent need for the first flat together?

    everything in life seems to happen all at once doesn't it

    At least with the Resources of the Elite it will be a very cheaply well equipped baby by the time it arrives :)

    We have 3 family birthdays in March so its a very popular month for babies

    Guess what............













    I'm going to be a nan:j

    So I've got a travel cot, lots of baby grows and blankets from vertbaudet and nappies from superdrug so any baby related offers please give me a nudge :D
