Does anyone know where I can get a Rainbow's uniform from without paying full price? There is some on ebay but they seem to be going for ridiculous amounts!NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

Ask one of the adult leaders at your local Rainbows - when I did Brownies we always had a stock of 2nd hand uniform available - its probably still the same! Or try posting a message on your local Freecycle or netmums sites.

MoamAlthough no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

Think i might have the dreaded bug off DS. Trouble is i am so constipated from being pregnant, i am getting nasty stomach pains, but no relief. Sorry TMI. I have also had a good bit of time snoozing on the sofa while DS was asleep this afternoon, and still feel really shattered now. Will see how i feel tomorrow morning i think.
shell has chicken pox, so not around. Don't know about her interview though.

so a bit of a feeble attempt from me today from what i wanted to achieve, but DS was a pleasure to be with.
We had a fun time having a bath together, and he had us in stitches calling his daddy by his first name and refusing to call him daddy.He's turning into a parrot and picking up new words by the day, so brilliant to be around at the moment.
Michelle, x
that should do for now, plus whatever else the day throws at me. Right, computer off now so i can get the h/w marked, and then hang the wet clothes up.
Night.
