Hiya, just sneaking on while DP washes the car.
Chloe & MrsSL - a Friday lunchtime cuppa down the Hard sounds good to me!
Thanks for letting me sound off & the advice. I feel a lot better than yesterday thanks to my parents. I'm currently bankrupt (will be released on Sept 11th, can't wait!), another legacy from xp. Joint accounts that were clear when we split, instead of signing the forms to take my name off, he beat me up, then proceeded to bleed them dry & rack up the charges, and so I had no choice last year but to declare myself bankrupt. 
The only plus is that next month I'm released from those debts, but he's still liable, ha bloody ha!
I think tbh it's the summer hols making it worse, I'm quite anal particular about our budget, but we somply don't have the leeway for extra food for 2 hungry boys, meaning that this is the 1st week of the hols that our food has come in on budget (but cupboards & fridge empty by Thurs). Funnily enough MrsSL, I did have a check in the cupboard last night for ingredients and found plenty for cherry shortbread and chocolate cake (and even a couple of packs of jelly lurking!). Plus they need more clothes (they get through the rest of the year with about 5 t-shirts!)
And how is it that parents just know when something's not right? Mine came round yesterday, we were in the kitchen & my dad forced £200 into my hand. I try to refuse it but he's saying it's 'commission' for helping him sell his car.
Strict instructions not to tell my mum. Then we're in the front room, my mum forces £200 into my hand. Again, I try to refuse it, and she tells me it's not for us but for the boys so that we can take them out (mustn't tell my dad!). I haven't even mentioned that we're finding it really tough atm. I just hate that I'm 30 & still relying on handouts from my parents.
On a positive, half of my things on ebay sold last week, making me just over £100 and sold a broken old tomtom yesterday on there for £26. We've also got enough to fill my dads car up for another car boot (made £76 at the one a few weeks ago, so will probably do another at the end of the summer).
Lavita - I think that's a perfectly reasonable request. I think Mothercare do some sort of gift fund (I overheard a member of staff talking to another couple) sort of like a honeymoon fund I think, but for baby bits. May be worth looking into? I use a pillow under my bump & then another between my legs. Does the job perfectly.
MrsSL - thank you, an ear to bend is a lot thank you. 
Hi Button, welcome along. Sorry to hear you've been getting bad pains, hope all is ok from now on.
C&G - how cute your puppy sounds. Good luck for dd's assessment tomorrow & your scan. The FB sale boards seem to be quite popular, lots of people selling here too.
GGG - Freecycle has been fab for getting rid of things I wouldn't be able to sell, but never seem to be able to get anything, for example, DP wanted a filing cabinet for the shed, so I put a request on for an old one, nothing, kept trying every few weeks, then after a few months someone was offering 3, sent an email asking for 1, but he'd already got someone collecting them. Always seems to happen to me on there.
Jobob - the left hand sleeping is because apparently it helps to get baby into the most comfortable position for labour. Also keeping upright or being on all 4s helps.
MrsSL - wow, my great grandma used to live in a caravan similar to yours in my grandparents garden. Make sure you keep adding pics as DH restores her.
We've got a busy week ahead, we have loads of converted Tesco vouchers so taking ds1 up to London tomorrow. ds2 is staying at my parents and using the money from my mum to get there and for dinner. Does anyone have any suggestions for parking in Wimbledon? Then PILs are down Weds & Thurs, they want to take us over to IOW, then it's the weekend again!
Hope you're all having a good weekend.
