    chill I got mine yesterday and it was £875 for 3 months!!!!!!!!!!!

    :o ok mine isn't that big - I just wasn't expecting it to be bigger than the nov-jan bill... but then it has been colder in the past 3 months than nov-jan :confused: At least when DD2 starts nursery FT in August I can stay at home and chill :rotfl: The thing is apart from putting the kids in snowsuits when they get back from school I can't think of much else we can do to reduce usage :rotfl: although might be worth fitting more TRV's - will ponder while I work...

    Fabby! Thanks ChasingButterflies!!! I am no longer a hull virgin! :)

    bargainbird - EFT = Emotional Freedom Technique. It is similar to accupuncture however there are no needles involved - you just tap on certain energy points in the body. Have a look at www.emofree.com It is truely amazing. My OH had it done a few weeks ago for a fear of cotton (I know it's weird) he has had all of his life. The session took 20 minutes and now, he can do anything with cotton. Before, I couldn't have it anywhere in the house and even the word cotton made him feel sick. But now, he's completely cured!

    Sharon - hugs to you and your dd. Well done for making a stand....the more I hear about what's happening in schools the angrier i'm getting.

    Pink fairy - hugs to you and your son too. I've found at our school the children who cause the problems are the ones who know the system well and know how to play it. it's unbelievable the police turned up with no communcation with the school. i'm glad the year head saw sense with it all.

    lil_me - we have one child with aspergers in dd's class. whilst he can be disruptive lots of systems have been put in place to help him. with us the main problem is 3 children who have no respect for anyone or anything. it appears the school's current policy is to support these children and keep them in class. i've found something on the internet talking about the rights of children to have an education without disruption in class so i'm going to bring that up. thanks for the information.

    i've had another teacher come and thank me for complaining and offering her 100% support in the behaviour at school. apparently an emergency staff meeting has been called for next tuesday.

    i've voted, put on a wash and had my lunch (I was hungry:rotfl: ) is it time for dinner yet :rotfl: xx

    Yup! I've had it since February, although strictly speaking it's called allergic rhinitis (according to my doc) as it has nothing to do with hay at this time of year.:o I've just ordered repeat prescriptions of eye drops, nasal spray and tablets. I take no chances as I'm asthmatic as well.

    Do you wake up in the morning with it? I wake up with it, it clears about lunchtime and starts back around dinner time.

    Michelle, any luck the moving about will get things moving. You seem to know what you need to do so it should happen nice and quick. I'm excited for you (seeing as I don't feel any discomfort) :T

    Nicki That is great news! Well done! You must be feeling awesome now!

    Right, no more excuses, time to go do some stuff!

    don't suppose he'll be picking up a needle along with that cotton......
