Hi everyone - now I understood what you meant Dunoon! I hadn't looked at the amount of messages!!

Basl - I can count on one hand how many dresses I have owned/worn in my lifetime, so doubtful Though I do still have one!! Maybe I should make it my aim to get in it? I must look for a picture of myself in it as it was bought for my friends wedding.

Anyway, you were going jogging!! Much more impressive than me - I dod it in my front room - which, if you could have seen me was fair enogh - my tummy was boinging up and down and my knickers falling down - attractive and then i needed a wee

ill wait to see what others think?

Hope Tate picks up soon.

Hello all. Just read through about 4 pages of posts. Yikes you are all very chatty.
Hope all those with ailments are recovering, bruises going down etc.
As part of my new regime I am going out with some mums tonight for a meal! I am also checking out prices to take DDs up to Edinburgh during easter holidays to see granny.
DP goes very quiet when I get the bit between my teeth. heh heh

BexieID · 20/03/2010 15:17

FMTD, you had a Jane Energy.

I was going to get a Sonic, there are s'posed to be really good, but I got a Callisto instead. Shame it arrived at mums broke, really hoping it'll be fixed by next sunday! Otherwise, i'll have to use this

GOTW, now I recognise you. You've got to remind me every so often about name changes. I'm useless!

I think I'm going to buy the butchers quest on the boards, need a little lightweight for school run as BJCE a bit of a beast to lift up and down.

Been to the mothership today, Ikea . Always cheers me up, having such a frustrating time with my mam at the moment, won't bore you with detials, but I'm sick of her buying my neice loads and nothing for my boys. Anyway, bought DS3 a cot duvet and pillow in lovely candystripes. DS1+2 want to share a room, and I figure that DS2 sleeps more than DS3 does, so can' be that bad. Bought some bunkbeds for them, getting delivered tomorrow!

Really wanted a hot dog, but can't as dieting, gutted! Its the the ending of my Ikea adventure, having a hot dog. Oh wel, there is always next time

nicolamumof3 · 20/03/2010 17:38

i think diva has her butchers stripe for sale 5in?

5inthebed · 20/03/2010 17:45

The one on the boards is only £60 posted Nicola

Hiya just back from my day out. Nic sorry no yellow converse every other colour under the sun infact i got daniel a dark denim pair that have furry lining. They are so cute but don't know if they will fit him?
My sister suggested she just drop me off at home so i could have a nice night in to myself and not have to get up early. She is giving them dinner now as my dh and hers forgot about that minor detail and they are now on train to Edinburgh.
I bought nothing!! for myself and i really did try but no luck. I did however buy two bags of stuff from the next outlet and really pleased with my bargins. Nic i saw a pair of jeans kind of skinny fit with turnups and blue stars on bottom, they were just up your street but only had in 9/12mths. Serious problems when i go shopping for me and browse for the ladies on mn.
So i am home alone and i have my pj's on and i am going to do some ebaying as i have nobody to annoy.
Flyme you did have the energy because i remember you where desperate to sell it and i nearly did but i read on a thread how much you did not care for it.
Geek i was only kidding about the whole bottle i did leave enough for a glass tonight. Had a lovley day today and bliss shopping without kids although talked about them all day.

nicolamumof3 · 20/03/2010 19:53

sounds like you had a nice day! denim cons are lovely thanks so much for looking. i know the jeans you mean with stars on yep i would have had them..i need to get to next outlet. You generally need to size up with cons. See luka is a 7 so i get 8 cons.

5in £60 posted good price i can't remember what i paid for my butchers stripe about £50 something i think? Yeah £54 i think...

How can you find out where Next outlets are? I am sure there is one over near my Mums but wanted to check.

OP posts:
basl · 20/03/2010 20:13

Nic i don't think these are going to fit daniel then. He is just over a 6 and i bought the 6 but i will see tomorrow. It was the next outlet i got the cons really suprised them selling all sorts now.

have you checked yell.com maxy? They usually are in retail parks. I wish i could have spent longer but my sister was nagging me about this day is for me not the kids but i could not resist. Got lots of stuff for summer hols, roll up jeans at £3.00 and two peice set for £4.00 it really was a good day for daniel but nothing for Olivia or me. Oh and i saw a lady pushing your quest today nic and i really love that.

nicolamumof3 · 20/03/2010 20:25

oh what the apples yes i love it!! but i do love my volo really really like the bigger hood for summer and lurve the yellow looks fabby with liner.

Am really liking the star plimmy's now. Doubt they will fit daniel the cons thats a shame basl i had luka in 7's last year and he was just a six could be even smaller with the fleece lining. Should go a profit on ebay tho if you bought them in sale?

i reall want the star jeans now...

like this were they?

nicolamumof3 · 20/03/2010 20:28

Cons are funny, James is an 8 now in Clarks and the size 8 cons fit him with plenty of room. I can't work it out!! I think his feet may have slimmed down though and that makes a diff? They fit the same as his kickers anyway lol!

OP posts:
nicolamumof3 · 20/03/2010 20:37

i would say Tate does have plenty of room in his cons and he is wearing 10's (9 in everything else inc.kickers which are always huge on him?!) but they are good as he still finds them comfy and hes not tripping over them!

couldn't get pic of luka in star shoes today.

basl · 20/03/2010 20:44

Yes nic those are the jeans but they looked much nicer in rl. They just kind of jumped out at me and then i started frantically? searching for them with no luck. The next store was funny they where selling merrell stuff and all different brand names. I got daniel this lovely short sleeved shirt sort of beig cream colour with blue and purple tiny stars on and a pair of dark denim jeans with the same colour lining. Lots of shorts and could have spent a fortune.

nicolamumof3 · 20/03/2010 20:47

oooh that sounds nice. i think im after purple now as may go for purple cons. next do all branded stuff now in directory so thats why. Going to have to beg dh to take me to outlet at lakeside!! will have to call in some favours me thinks!!

basl · 20/03/2010 20:53

The shirt is lovley and i think he could wear it now as we have a purple long sleeved top from vertbaudet and it would look just great underneath. Now i feel more like myself regarding clothes shopping for daniel. I really could not get into it the same as i did with olivia. I am obsessed with things matching and looking just so with my kids and i used to go to some extent with olivia. I used to order clothes from america as i wanted a certain thing. I used to have budles sent with all the lovley brands they sell. Honestly you have no idea just how bad i used to be. A bit like i am now with co-ordinating pushchairs. I just don't give up till it is what i want. Shame really i don't do the same for myself but i will as i got a really good feeling when looking at all the summer clothes.

just weird! But then his Kicker boots fit him yet the t bar shoes are same size and still quite big on him. tried them on him the other day and they were huge in comparison! I used my inside shoe measurer though and the shoes were quite a few mm longer than the boots. Just measured and the cons are actually 4mm shorter internally than the size 26 Kickers lol.

sizing drives you mental eh?

i do totally understand where you are coming from. I am starting to look much more stuff for me these days which is nice. just wish i had some more pennies!
