Apparently you can order gifts and get them 'crap wrapped' (ie wrapped badly) - I found out about it because my son bought a friend an inappropriate present and didn't want my delicate eyes to see it....
I'm rarely in contact with my sister and I haven't seen her for years but today I feel awful for her. Her 12/13 year old daughter was diagnosed with type one diabetes about six months ago and she...
I've bought quite a lot of stuff over the weekend paying through PayPal - three of these payments are pending. Does my PayPal available balance include these pending payments (ie have the payments...
I have decided to try to make a dent in the Christmas shopping but none of the kids particularly wants anything, they're too old for toys and most of them are too young to have just a few bits and...
We moved house in May - it's the end house down a short cut-de-sac just 15 houses away from where we used to live. This morning I received a text from a current neighbour to say that my ex-neighbour...
Would it be wrong to equip my daughter with some sort of self defence to use against another child? Thing 1 is tiny compared to her peers and a big lump of a girl (the same age) is picking her up and...
Just checking before I buy one, but I reckon it's ok to use a garden Christmas tree inside - am I right? (Have a cat now, so reckon one of those spiral light-up trees will stand more chance than a...
My eldest daughter (12) is finding secondary school really hard - she is horribly clever (it does her no favours) and since leaving primary she has been praised a lot (at primary school they played it...
I have been using frontline on our kitten (coming up to six months old) but it's not exactly effective. Can anyone recommend a good one I can buy online?
I bought something off someone on FB at about 8pm and the the seller has just sent me proof of postage! I am so impressed, I had no idea post offices (wether proper branches on in local shops) stayed...
I'm going to make (well that's a stretch as its out of a jar) beef in black bean sauce for myself over the weekend but the jar of sauce is huge and I reckon I won't manage all the beef I bought. Can I...
My son just finished a bottle of Pepsi Max (a person sized one not a huge one) and something touched his lips - there's a big lump of something that looks like chewing gum in the actual bottle! I'm...
I've just found out about Sky VIP - it appears I'm entitled to free Sky Q set up, access to new programmes and I get priority if I phone them. Didn't know if it was use to anyone else -...
Cat now well and truly rules the roost! He can magically get any seat he wants regardless of who is sitting in it, he's given up pretending not to be in our bedroom and last night had the cheek to run...
I got bitten on my neck about 10 - 12 days ago. I have honestly not scratched or poked and prodded it but there's an angry deep red patch on my neck (about the size of a 10p) and a hard lump in the...
Well, the kitten has well and truly settled in and is now master of the house. He's just woken up and is working up to his mad hour of running and climbing anywhere he likes. The kids are smitten...
