**miss mopple** · 15-08-2008, 07:51 AM

Haven't been in 5yrs since I moved too far away from one

I'm off to Kent to visit family this weekend and am wondering if I should take a detour via Thurrock on the way home and spend some of the extra dosh 'm working so hard for this Summer hols

Well its that or give it to the tax man so I may as well eh

Sooooo, whats good in there for minding at the minute? What have you bought lately, practical or just fun

Five years

you are well in need of a trip!!!!!!!

You're sure to find something you didn't know you needed and you might even get a bargain - when I went a couple of weeks ago I got a spider (for incey wincey) for £0.49 couldn't bring myself to buy the bat for the same price though

Go on............ you know you want to go

I have spent tooooo much in ikea recently. Best buy was my igloo for about £4.50 with some pale blue and polar white fleece blankets about £1.50 each and pale blue cushions about 60p each. Turned it into a lovely soft, quiet area. Great success especially as Will has fell asleep twice in there.
