Have just replied- just seen the boots... i like them but dont think they'd go with most of DD1's clothes... plus DH hates kickers boots!! I wanted to buy DD2 some stunning white crib shoe's of them and he refused point blank to allow me- says he hates the style!!

I do think i'm gonna go for the full set, it's a third of the price too- which is a massive bonus!!

Your dh needs Kicker's aversion therapy . Having said that, I do understand if he is around my age as there's a generation of children who were forced to wear them (me and my sister in matching pink kickers lace ups with our burgundy cords ). My dd3 is currently in her 'funky' phases, so though they'd look cool with her skinny jeans . Talking of Gap, do you fancy a return visit when we're up in York??

Diege · 27/08/2009 12:51

Oh meant to say those boots you linked to are to die for . You must persuade dh!!

just been looking in the kickers sale Diege- and they have the same boots at only £25... though as they are sale boots they only have a few sizes...

I'm up for a return visit if i have time!! Think me and my sister will be going for the 3.08pm train home...

Hello
Thanks for the new thread Glask! Enjoy your solo shopping, what a treat.

I haven't started a farmville as i see everyone else has been bitten by the bug- if i had anything more than MN i'd never get a thing done around the house!!

Have got my sister (the middle one) coming shopping with me tomorrow- that'll be quite nice as she's off to uni in a few weeks. Not had a proper day with her in ages!!

Since coming off here earlier i have cleaned the kitchen, put a load of washing on, sorted out washing DD2 a bottle for tomorrow, and got her milk out of the freezer and have also just expressed another 2oz for her.

Hello (was going to write morning then, shows how far my head is in the clouds!)

OK, let's see what I can remember...

Welcome back STT, hols sound good Hope you manage to get sorted re. the bedrooms.

Think I have forgotten everything except the shopping (was there even anything else?!!)! Am very have ££££'s in the bank and can't touch any of it, payday tomorrow, can't touch any of it, have less than £2 in my purse hate being so bloody sensible (And I am fantasising about a horrible greasy donner kebab with a limp warm salad and crappy chips, I can smell it, and almost taste it, y'know it's bad when you fancy one of those, especially when you've not had so much as a drop of alcohol!)

Nearly lost our buyers this morning, or at least the EA made it sound like we had EA rang up saying the buyers had gone into the EA's this morning to pick up a fresh copy of the details to take to their bank with them, apparently he asked if the house was ex-council, she said yes, he asked if the council still owned any of the houses, she said she thinks it's about 50/50 (she was right) and then warned me not to expect them to turn up this afternoon (they'd arranged to come by and measure up) so I'm on pins, clearing up wondering if I was just wasting my time, they turn up right on time with big grins saying how excited they are and that their bank has given them the mortgage, surveyors coming next week, should be 6-8 weeks with the paper work! The very least I was expecting was that they'd say they don't want to pay over the asking price, or they'd just pull out altogether. So I think as long as the survey comes back OK, we're on the move.

And you know what that means?

Packing.

Where do you start?

Thats the plan Kooky!!

Diege- it was- god help me if she'd got all the way up and then tried bringing it down!!

i think it's fish finger butties for tea when Dh gets home later!! kids had fish fingers and hash browns (my latest food love) and i so wanted some!!

Lightening- that is very fast work on selling- if only it was so easy everywhere to sell like that!!

Woohoo!!! Driving lesson went really well! I loved it, still making mistakes obviously but I really enjoy it now. Drove home from the town where I'll do my test. Only about 8/9 miles but a huge roundabout and a main 60mph road. It was great, roll on next week.

Lightning, fabulous about the house!!! Hope it all goes smoothly.

Now off to chippy for my driving lesson treat.
