I'm trying on the palm oil front too duchess, it's in so much though when you start looking. I agree that in reality, it means a lot of home cooked food. I think fluffy is hot on this topic too?
I think laska puts it well girlie, that's a celebration of a life well lived at 103, I bet she had some amazing tales to tell!
Does the self settling to sleep hopefully enable self settling in the night too then seacow hopefully? You mention it being a different issue?
I'm glad your DN is at least safe cag.
Hello clare, great reduction on the shopping. I found going through my direct debits and culling them or switching to better deals saves a lot too.
Good news on the pay snuggly it all helps.
maz we have a horse box whose MOT is due in December, usually costs circa £500-1k at the most expensive time of year, I feel your pain.
Happy Birthday to your DH adora, hope your colds improved.
3 jobs life? Promotions?
Thank you for your birthday messages. It ended up being a lovely day. We went out for tea and DBIL drove up from Peterborough with a massive bouquet of flowers, champers and many stories to entertain DF with. He stayed over last night, he's still asleep though!
Lastly, me and the DC went to make up his bed at about 10.30pm and we all did a bit of it, pillows, sheets, duvet. We were having such a giggle chucking it at each other. DS, who rarely expresses emotion spontaneously (says he loves me as he leaves the house but that's it) said 'we are such a secure family aren't we, makes me happy'. Think that was the best present as I worry about DS, he's such a quiet, slightly anxious soul.
