Are there any other sales I should look at btw? Have so far ordered from Boots (only a couple of bits) and lakeland, and been to John Lewis.

mustrunmore · 28/12/2009 19:20

Bloody Lakeland had sold out of 4litre cereal clip-its..reduced to 2.99, and the 3.4 litre was reduced to only 3.99

I havent found anythoer good sales, no. Except Asda online, but I got there too late and everything I wanted was sold out of course! Went there today but tis only a small one and was mainly sold out. Altho got pjs for boys half price, and a long top/short dress thing for me. Tried on a cardy and ds1 said it lookded like a dressing gown

So, WEdnesday csws?...

  1. I will just turn up to the station and hope there's a train. They're every half hour I thnik.
  2. Will you pick us up? City or North? Do I need a booster seat with me?
  3. What time?
  4. Warning: ds1 is being obnoxious lately!

argh - mate had ds for tea... he had diarrhoea in pants, on floor etc

mustrunmore · 28/12/2009 19:27

Lol

CantSleepWontSleep · 28/12/2009 20:45

Oops flame!

mrm :-

1 - yes, but give us a vague idea of what sort of time you're aiming for.

2 - yes, one of us will. north preferably. yes to booster, as dd will obv want to come to pick up too. Can ds2 still fit in my ds' seat? If yes then you just need 1 booster, otherwise 2.

3 - sometime in the morning - anything after about 10 arrival I suppose.

4 - what's new .

Any weird food aversions I should know about, or just anything veggie?

mustrunmore · 28/12/2009 20:57
  1. I guess I'm aiming to leave home about 9.30, so maybe get a 10am train. So arrive 10.30. Ish. I think for North i havr to change at city? Or is it the other way round? Ok, I'm gonna look at a timetable!!
  1. Booster/seat... no idea! Will work on the basis that yes ds2 wil fit, else I'll have to carry two! We'll squeeze him in somehow...
mustrunmore · 28/12/2009 20:59

Oh yeah,

  1. Food. I'm easy, but if you have fresh fid I'll eat the lot, no mattr how many you have. ds2 will eat pretty much anything, ds1 will eat pretty much nothing. If you want clean plates I'd just go for plain pasta
CantSleepWontSleep · 28/12/2009 21:01

fresh fid?

Phoenix · 28/12/2009 21:18

Maybe fish

for ds Flame. How's your little lady doing?

I can't believe Noah is very nearly 6mths old how did that happen?

Can't believe how organised you are mrm. I normally buy cards but haven't even done that this year. We went into town for about half an hour yesterday to spend Lewis' christmas money on some more Dsi games but apart from that haven't looked at any sales.

mustrunmore · 29/12/2009 09:25

figs

Phoenix, thats cos you've got a baby! You're not supposed to be organised!
Do you let him spend his xmas money then? Mean mother here puts all the money they get in the bank a)cos otherwise they'll have no savings when they grow up b) cos thats what I did when I was a child, hence I got thru uni without a loan c)they got so much for xmas, they dont need anything else!

ds1 just woke up & 1st thing he asked was it is tomo we're going to csws house, and if there will be cornin the field

Flame · 29/12/2009 09:49

christmas money tends to go into bank for extras through the year

mustrunmore · 29/12/2009 10:02

csws, how about getting into North at 10.34am? I love how I spend 10 mins changing for a 3 min journey on the second trtain
Thrn home, can I aim to leave on the 5.17pm train? There's a 4.47, so maybe we should aim for that so I actually get the 5.17!

CantSleepWontSleep · 29/12/2009 14:46

All sounds good to me mrm!

Phoenix · 29/12/2009 17:23

Yes we spend christmas/birthday money if there's something we want. I always did as a kid. Money they both got when they were born went in the bank and we put money in their accounts every month, well i say their accounts but it's really only Lewis' cos we haven't got round to opening one for Noah yet. I've been carrying his money in my bag since he was born .

mustrunmore · 29/12/2009 17:53

hurray got this for 15.99 including the three free baskets to go in the boys room. As they're growing,I'm finding they need shelves rather than big boxes to just shovel all the crap into! They have more display/preciuos things now.
Had to go to bloody Edmonton Green to get it tho; all sold out locally!

Lol at poor Noah's money!

CantSleepWontSleep · 29/12/2009 18:36

I need to get more taller storage for the playroom, as the trofast stuff is great, but not enough to hold all of their stuff now, and it's only going to get worse when number 3 arrives! Upwards is the only way to expand what's in there already really!

mustrunmore · 29/12/2009 18:38

I know what you mean; I had my eyes on something tall on ebay, but I'm still a bit about ds2 and tall things, both in a falling onhim way, and a climbing up them way! You can get the tall Trofast you know

CantSleepWontSleep · 29/12/2009 18:44

Oh yeah - I was forgetting that they do a really tall one too. Will have a ponder/browse later.
Will make a change from surfing for new cars!

mustrunmore · 29/12/2009 19:14

Glad to be of help

Dont suppose you want to swap a small tv of yours for a huge one? Friend gave us one, but back too wide to fit in fireplace. If it was smaller it would, or if it was small and crappy I'd break my rules and have it in our room!

CantSleepWontSleep · 29/12/2009 19:40

Sadly not on the TV front. Since ds smashed the sony bravia we have no spares.

mustrunmore · 30/12/2009 09:09

Right, am leaving in 5 mins

CantSleepWontSleep · 30/12/2009 20:33

mrm - can you keep an eye out for something like this at Ikea please, with the big draw at the bottom, and make a note of the details if you see anything like it please?

Phoenix · 30/12/2009 20:44

Would that be a drawer csws?

CantSleepWontSleep · 30/12/2009 21:06

Oops .

mustrunmore · 30/12/2009 21:10

Lol, at least mine is trying errors all the time, not errible spelling . Yes, certaily will look out, I love a challenge
