Morning!

New thread for the new day. Temperature is starting to drop again and it's going to be rather chilly for the weekend and the start of December!

Let's see if we need thread 9 or not! Xmas Grin

Sounds like an odd thing to delete as it doesn't sound like it broke talk guidelines. Weird. Xmas Confused

You're definitely protected from MMR, Neros!

Firefly, the Meningitis jab was meant to start before DS was born, but they delayed it, so we ended up paying for both of them. We waited until he was 2 though so we only had to pay for 2 courses each (almost £400 for both!).

Ff she loved her stew. She was demanding more! I've kept a bit over for her lunch tomorrow. She takes after me in that she loves savoury and not that fussed in sweet things. Except for Haribo. That's like catnip to her.

Fluffy knowing my luck is still get it.

firefly my DC will be wondering why the door on the airing cupboard always breaks so they can’t open itGrin

flouncy I love the battle of the sproutsXmas Grin!. Our tradition is to go for a walk on Christmas Day and we have to guess what everyone we pass has had for Christmas, so if they’re riding a scooter they got a scooter, or if they’re wearing a hat they got a hat. It can get quite silly, the kids love it.

fluffy I think the poster had been posting a lot of weird stuff so they’re seeing if it isn’t a troll, but I’m not sure. It wasn’t very believable.

mrs I truly hate jabs. I’m okay now DD1 is older as she understands what’s happening, but hate the jabs they have as babies because they don’t get why they’re in pain and you can’t explain it to them.

ThatsMySantaHisBeardIsSoFluffy · 18/12/2019 21:26

Most trolls are easily spotted. Like the one that frequents this thread! Xmas Confused

Flouncy, that deleted post sounds, ummmm, illuminating! Xmas Blush

There was a full-on punch up in our Asda over sprouts last year. They were too busy fighting to listen to the staff tell them that there were more in the store room!

JoGose · 18/12/2019 21:30

fluffy there’s a troll on this thread? Lol at your sprouts story😂

Depends how hard you were twatted with the sprouts, flouncy!

Yes, there's a regular troll with a distinctive style. We recognise them and talk amongst ourselves to make sure they've been spotted. We don't breach guidelines and troll hunt though. They're SO easy to spot; it's amusingly bad.

flouncy My mil owns a small holding with loads of space. She used to breed dogs and has some kennels which is where we thought our dogs stayed. Found out 2 years ago that she's always moved into her granny annex with them when they came to stay 😂 So yes, he'll be spoiled rotten!

Fluffy food plan is to buy some food which will move with us (cheese, crackers, chutney and biscuits mainly) then eat out. We're staying at b&bs, have tables booked for Christmas Eve, day and Boxing Day.

Well done Jo!
Santa delivered everything when we were younger but dsis now does some Santa presents and some from parents. Santa always brings something parents have absolutely sworn the dc are not allowed though, because Santa has a sense of humour Xmas Wink

Wreck 🤞🏼 for you.
I also started feeling a bit under the weather after my flu jab

Thank you MrsMad, would have been awful to fall out with a local 😂

Firefly 💐

I'm on my way home now. Will be another hour though 😴
MIL brought ddog2 a Fluffy bed and a pigs ear for the drive home so the spoiling had begun!
