Not much chance of that now with P&O for me, they have started to make people adhere to the boarding time they send you.

My pregnant six was admitted to hospital yesterday with sky high blood pressure. She's just over 7 months.

Baby is very small and if delivered now, he is predicted to weigh 1-1.5kg :eek: :eek: they won't let her go past 37 weeks, so he will be here in the next 3 weeks.

They had a bit of a meltdown today so I went to the hospital to sort them out. Turns out that they don't have anything ready at all we sat down and made a list of what they need and prioritised it. Me and my brother went out tonight for some bits so they've got the very basic stuff now.

I remembered from ages ago about the little angels newborn packs that were £4 with a £10 voucher inside - I got him to get one of those and told him how to recycle the vouchers

I actually feel so sorry for them. They've clearly gone through this pregnancy with their heads buried in the sand and living in a fantasy land where everything baby related happens by magic. They've got a hell of a reality check headed their way:(

The really sad thing is how little they've got so far. I've brought home the clothes they've got so far so I can wash them and take one job off their hands. It won't even make up a full load of washing

If there are any newborn related glitches out there, please shout very loudly!

There is the vouchers from Emma Diary, free samples & moc etc

Had read it on a few forums late last year, then when I went away in Feb I had to wait about an hour and a half with turning up early. Still got on earlier, but they definitely gave the ones turning up well before their time a different lettered/coloured card.

There was a ongoing glitch on baby food, something like buy 11/12 jars as long as 10 were the same. Can anyone remember? The food bank need baby food, thanks

i e got very little internet service. Could you tell me the olive glitch please

It's chilled olives with feta cheese (50p) that I got zippy. As have gone on to reduce lots of chiller cabinet stuff, meat uncooked and cooked, pies/sausage rolls, ready meals, Indian and Chinese snacks, dips, fresh pastas and sauces, yoghurts, juices/smoothies etc. All long dated too. :cool:

Some of it is 50% off and some right down to 75%. Both stores I went to had put almost everything reduced on an end of aisle but there were still other bits I spotted. It is worth looking round all the fridges to be honest. I went yesterday and SA said there would be more reductions over next couple of days.

I know they have not been mentioned for ages as the free £5 vouchers dried up, but can anyone remember how long after changing from ClubC vouchers to redspottedhanky vouchers they take to appear? TIA

As I said earlier a member of staff reminded me and I got them after I put it all on the conveyer belt:cool::j
