to think spending a hundred pound on a rocking horse is a waste of money, kids hate them anyway.

[iamjigsaw]

you do not need to wastespend that much on one.

Not necessarily.
I had a £100 rocking horse, it lasted through DD who is now 7, and DS1 who is 4.
I freecycled it last month because I have nowhere to put it, but had I not it would have lasted DS2 also.

heck you are a bore about money, aren't you

oh oh.

how fucking dare you start a thread about me.
you bastard.

lol at

you bastard

Bodybag, ignore, ignore, ignore.

I'm with tutter though.

YABU. I loved my rocking horse and my rocking lamb, which was my very first rocking toy.

I loved my rocking horse when I was little, why do you care what other people spend on there dcs???

You are all unreasonable.

So there.

I lolled at 'how fucking dare you' Tutter.

Does smack of Catherine Tate a little
How very dare you

Dd had a 2nd hand one of these given to her. It was gorgeous and dd loved it.

People are entitled to spend their hard earned cash on whatever they please.

Go get a life as you clearly havn't got much of an interesting one.

Well how much did you spend on your buggy travel system? It is none of my business of course, but I won't let that get in the way of a good old judge.......

I agree £100 seems silly. I had one as a child that cost more than that in the 1980s

And then your fatty-boom-boom SIL squishes it! (see other thread from today)

ios - how can you tell anybody to get a life when your posting on mumsnet? admit it your a zombie like the rest of us

and iamjigsaw - thats pathetic, just cause your kids dont like it doesnt mean hers wont...

no need to call me a bastard, bb.

why am I a bore about money?

don't you think cries of get a life and bastard are a bit harsh?

I thought I could start a thread about whatever I liked? is that not the case?

I had a travel system free, hand me down.

No jigsaw, not the case, it is pretty twatty to start a thread about someone else.

Which is what you did.

i dont think bastard is the right word
bitch is much better

Firstly it is bad manners to start a thread about another thread. Secondly I was just trying to point out that some people spend relatively large amounts of cash on stuff that others feels are unnecessary(I don't get the point of travel systems). Essentially is isn't any of your business so no matter what you think there is not much point in starting a thread about it because it is only going to rile people.

don't think she needs to be called a bitch actually

Ohhhhhhh. Gets it now. It WAS about the SIL squashing the horse. (very slowly catching the penny there)

I don't care how people spend their money. Although I do find rocking horses in homes where people have never had kids quite creepy. And they are always in bay windows.

out of order bodybag.

ffs.

covering ears

lalalalalalalalalalala

That's the ONLY word I don't use.
