What did you buy Up?
I spent a shocking amount on junk for DD birthday party in Tesco. Have a cunning plan to make blue jellies with Haribo jelly hearts inside (Frozen theme) if I can get it together.

Ps I've been in our local 136 suite thanks to DS, it was actually fine but deadly boring in there and they can keep you for up to 72 hours while they wait for the AMHP, which would be an excruciatingly dull 72 hours so I wouldn't recommend :)

DavidTennantsBeard · 13/02/2015 18:27

Yum Snickers. Reminds me must buy almond butter!

Ennn · 13/02/2015 18:30

Does anyone remember almond Snickers or did I imagine it?

Ennn · 13/02/2015 18:33

I'm glad you're safe at home Up, was a bit worried about you earlier (hope that doesn't feel like pressure to check in, it's just that you're usually around)

Ennn · 13/02/2015 18:34

How old is DD, David? I'm sure you already said but I don't remember Blush

Millie2013 · 13/02/2015 18:34

Millie2013 · 13/02/2015 19:16

That sounds fab, Ennn

Ennn · 13/02/2015 19:22

Oh it was. Dead posh Grin

Millie2013 · 13/02/2015 19:29

It did sound a bit...Ocado

Ennn · 13/02/2015 19:33

Grin I know, that's why I want to gloat have never shopped at ocado in my life

DavidTennantsBeard · 13/02/2015 19:34

Ooh almond snickers!

DS is 15. The 136 suite where he was taken is part of an adult psychiatric hospital, iirc under s136 you can be taken to a "place of safety" which can be a police station, or other secure places. So we were lucky (bitter laugh) that he ended up there but in fairness I have to say that IMHO DS has received absolutely amazing care ever since he was picked up by the police in December.

Thanks for sharing David I realise that today could have been much worse for me. Omelette sounds very swish Ennn
