So Ms Brass Neck started speaking to me again today, purely to tell me she'd just purchased a £400 high chair for her yet-to-be-born child. I said "oh really?" and she asked me what I did when DD was weaned. I told her I spent a tenner on a second-hand chair from Gumtree, to which her response was to wrinkle her nose and say "Second-hand? Well I only want the best for my child" and walked off! She's the gift that keeps on giving, isn't she?
I guess I'm still being "punished" for refusing to bring back almost the entire contents of a French parapharmacie for her next month. Oh well, I'm sure I'll survive, although since when did buying second-hand mean you weren't "wanting the best" for your child?

AIBU?
To think that "wanting the best" for your child doesn't necessarily mean spending the most money? (aka CallaLilli's brass-necked colleague rides again!)
