Oh i am nervous about that. Maxy thinking about you and dh and little james hope you are all well and having a fab time. Still trying to put more pics on but taking for ever.
Nic big squeezy hug from me. nah nah nah nah nah told you so. [sorry guess who has been on the red wine tonigh] Geek i blame you with tempting me earlier. How bad is this 6.30pm Daniel ready for bed and olivia arrives home from having a fab time at grandads and i say lets nip over to the co-op for milk . In the co-op i buy milk, crisps, choc, Bottle of red wine. Leave the co-op and who do we bump into but Olivias nursery teacher. Teachers asks if she is having a late night because nursery finished for a fortnight and Olivia prompty told her no mum needed some wine then Olivia aske Mrs Willson who's hand she was holding? Is that your dad so i well and truly deserve my glass/bottle of wine. Dh on tripple time so not home till late.

I third the dettol mould remover. Works very well. The sell it and buy a new one
Evening everyone.
Been so busy today. Mostly housework and then concert at school. Whew!

StrictlyKatty · 21/04/2010 20:51

I'm trying milton cos the dettol bleaches really badly when I've used it before

maxybrown · 21/04/2010 21:03

small nail brush, vanish and sun SK - got it out of the Mutsy I had rather well and that hadn't been well cared for before I got it.

2nd option, charge the army

Evening all by the way

Thought you may all like to know that my son officially (As I already knew) is just a little bugger when it comes to not talking and has no hearing issues or anything at all wrong with his teeth, mouth or throat!! Had a nightmare time getting to it and took us 40 mins to walk to it from manchester city centre grrrrrrr, but all done now

nicolamumof3 · 21/04/2010 21:10

been meaning to text you maxy been non bloody stop today..so glad all ok so all ruled out now as you thought just time will tell. I truly believe nursery will bring him on so much like it did for luka.

carrielou2007 · 21/04/2010 21:12

Brill news Maxy about ds, he'll talk when he's ready

SK I have black fleece seat cover, blue leaves custom summer hood and miwheels black basket if no joy with spray?

5inthebed · 21/04/2010 21:26

Good news about your DS Maxy . DS2 had to have a hearing test, it was a flashing clown that lit up whenever a sound was played, and he kept looking at the clown before the sound went off. Not very effective.

StrictlyKatty · 21/04/2010 21:28

Thanks Carrie, might need to take you up on the offer if this Milton bath doesn't help Bloody mould!

Divatheshopaholic · 21/04/2010 21:44

Thats great Maxy, i bet you feel better, like Nicola said he will not stop chattering
when he starts nursery.

maxybrown · 21/04/2010 21:45

Thanks Nic, tis ok I am sure you are right

5in OMG they had a really scary flashing pig at James' - hideous! he really cried at that. Also I think the noise was far too loud for him - def nothing wrong!

nicolamumof3 · 21/04/2010 21:57

since luka had his grometts done he can obviously hear so much better as he frequently covers his ears 'too noisy mama' 'too much' 'cary (scary' he hates police car siren for example.

he had first swimming lesson for 6m today. hated it!! didnt like anyone looking at him. Said he was tired and needed to lie on steps!! So he's still v.shy.

BexieID · 21/04/2010 22:01

maxy, your DS sounds like Tom. Nursery has been really good for him.

maxybrown · 21/04/2010 22:14

orrrr bless him. I guess the swimming baths will be the same for him with noise?

James only ever been swiming once - must nag DH to start us all going!!

nicolamumof3 · 21/04/2010 22:20

maybe i was a bit concerned as he was holding his ear after? I have been adamant that all mine would be good swimmers early on. My mum couldn't swim and is still not confident in water now. I was petrified as a child and hated lessons. Tom and Tate both love it. And so did luka im sure he will get into it again. Tate swimming totally unaided now (underwater only..just like how Tom started!) but i think thats good going for a 4yo. As we have our own pool when we are away think it will only help him too.

nicolamumof3 · 21/04/2010 22:20

oh and bexie glad you are getting skate! will be perfect for erin..sell the rest!

Divatheshopaholic · 21/04/2010 22:24

ok, if ds is in uk 6 and eu 23,w hat size converse do i order? please wise people?

nicolamumof3 · 21/04/2010 22:38

i'd get a seven as luka is a size bigger and is wearing 8 cons which are eu 24 for some reason! fit him with plenty of growing room. Yellow cons had first wash today they are gleaming again!!

BexieID · 21/04/2010 23:57

I won't sell cdrive, as want to use it when shes bigger. I'm keeping Loola for hols now as well, seeing as it's a third of size folded than cdrive/skate. What I really need shot of is P&T, but have promised lady on pram board it, and she doesn't need it till sept. Graco is going and don't know what to do with broken Micralite, lol. Maybe sell for parts?

nicolamumof3 · 22/04/2010 07:41

yep i'd sell all three of those bexie.

more sun this morning its lovely! due to be 21degs on sunday and we are off to jamie oliver restaurant in Brighton..yum.

FlyMeToDunoon · 22/04/2010 08:20

I went to a Jamie Oliver restaurant in Teddington/Twickenham? It was very good. Great food and atmosphere. Hope you enjoy it.
I am hacked off as ebay have said my seller ratings are below standard due to negative feedback on p&P. I always charge recorded delivery as I figure it covers seller and buyer and hey if you don't want to pay that then don't buy my items!
Crap!
DP spent the night in the loo with a tummy complaint. Everyone else seems fine atm. Fingers crossed.

maxybrown · 22/04/2010 08:30

Morning, lovely here too, have been cleaning and polishing whislt DS still in bed, got washing about to finish too, yay!

James is ins size 8 cons and he is an 8 in startrite - but he has more room in the startrites than the cons - they fit fine though. I think there is bit more room in the lo's Diva than the boots, so you will prob find a 7 boot stays on better than 7 shoe............though who bloomin well knows!! Best to just try. I know that when James grows out of these 8's the 9's will be too big for a while - that has happened every time with them, I have to wait a little while. Hope that all makes some kind of sense

Nicol you have inspired me to list lots of 99p things on ebay at weekend too.

Dunoon - DH got marked down on something too. Really the stars are crap as people can just put whatever they like and unless they get things for free postage I don't think a lot of people are ever impressed. I do hate ebay at times...........maybe I should put all my 99p things on here first for 50p instead

nicolamumof3 · 22/04/2010 08:58

my things not doing so well on ebay atm. But i still have tons to list going to try tonight tho taking boys to toms football training and won't be home til nearly 8pm as Terry working.

Luka's started waking early again grrr..dh thinks we need to set heating to come on earlier so will try that (will try anything i like my 7.30am lie ins!)

off to toddler group in a minute then local shops looking for bright pink accessories for a wedding reception we are going to next month. Oh and have pedicure at 4pm...yummmmmmy!

maxybrown · 22/04/2010 09:20

we don't have heating on at all now - can't bear it. Mind you no heating in DS room so would't help

Ds just padding downsatirs now, but very late to bed yesterday!

have a good day all

sal1309 · 22/04/2010 11:06

morning all.

hope your all well. nice day here today going to do some planting in my mums garden with dd today.

had a nice day out yesterday at the blue planet aquarium then a quick look round cheshire oaks didnt buy much though.

Maxy great news about your ds.

we are thinking of selling our caravan but i know dd will be really upset but cant see us affording a new towbar for the car this year so seems a shame for it to be sat there

maxybrown · 22/04/2010 11:41
