  1. we have had 2 mercededes estates with extra seats in the boots. they have both been really good E300 D. They are quite old but have been safe family cars and had each for a least 10 years. I know the newer mercedes models have not reviewed so well but the older ones are really good ove 200,000 miles on the clock on the last one, 165,000 the current one.
  2. do you think you could substitute the cranberries with raisins- and the peanuts with another kind of nut- may be almonds?
  3. you have my complete sympathy. at least he keeps you fit- and for me i lost weight with such an active toddler. if you have a big garden that helps. i built little assault type courses ans we used to time ourselves how long it took. maybe a tramploine if you have space. lots of walking everywhere you can though.
  4. the sun on sunday will be coming pretty soon
  5. god that is cheap- i'm sure we bought one like this last year form john lewis for a lot more ???
  6. one of the advantages of ccf is that the cadets have to iron all their stuff for parades-when they are away at camp-so from then on they do all their own ironing ( and more for pocket money) :) at least thats what happened at our house.
  7. a and e kings on a fri or sat night is not a good place to be. BUT it makes you realise how lucky you are- some of the poeple there that need attention are rather sad cases- who you assume are regulars there and see it as a reception area- or refuge even.
  8. why cant teachers have their own private pensions that the emplyer and the employee put into?
  9. Update is :-a speed limiting course ( 2.5 hours)for ?97 or a ?60 fine and 3 points- or court. Just wanted everyone to know about the speed limit on the bridge as I did not see it- too busy avoiding Japanese tourists and cyclists.
  10. thanks- i stopped a bus driver last night and got the tel no of garage- but no keys/usb stick handed in- hope he backed his stuff on to the pc..... Teenagers!
  11. If you are a single parent can't you eat with your 4 year old? eating should be a social occasion where possible. This is the hardest bit though- I'm sorry you dont have anyone to help you though.
  12. My son managed to lose his bike and locker keys/usb stick and oystercard on the top of the 185 at about 5pm - heading from dulwich to victoria- any ideas where to go and try and find them?? iseem to remember a post about this some time ago.
  13. were train dealys victoria to herne hill line- and it was not pleasant!
  14. id try and leave london before 1030 but after 930 am. 6 hours is the quickest I would think. we would do A303, but it can get very heavy with traffic- especially if there are any festivals nearwhere you are going.
  15. so whats the advice if you are paid in euros???- but 80% of your expenditure is in the uk???
  16. Another one bites the dust- Queen
  17. im sure your builder can give you a good idea. things to think about are - a 5 bed house and 1 bath not a good idea-need another bath/ shower-you would need a bigger boiler etc to service it- it will cost more to heat- insure - council tax etc. on the other hand you could let out a room- maybe with ensuite- and get a good rent- say ?120 a week- which say ?6000 pa will pay the extra cost back..........
  18. loz, you are a very honest person. :))
  19. but why would you?
  20. can you put the pilow under the mattress just to lift that end of the cot?
  21. sorting out a pension-..................
  22. i think little treats like manicures and reflexology are nice- if you can go anddo it yourself that is even nicer.It all depends what the illness is- i have a friend who does reflexology to someone who is in an almost vegatative state, but the person paying here thinks it is doing some good.
  23. you could go through it and just rip the top off - wiht your address and account details- and recycle the rest one week- thats what I did. then i tore the top corner off which was my address and recycled the following week- and then i was left with 10% of what i started with and I burnt on the fire/ tore up into even smaller bits. i did try shredding with my work shredder buts its hopeless. alternatively there are companies that specialise in secure disposal - we sent 100 bags from work but i think thats expensive- the companies give you special bags to fill and take away. I cant remember the name sorry.
  24. of course teachers pensions are costing us all that pay tax. we are putting in for them.
