I'll get used to it Cinds, but last night was just weird!  I love lying on my Mums bed when I visit her.....hers is nice and firm too but actually trying to have a whole nights sleep on my new one was a bit awkward.  On the plus side tho my OH didn't snore as much last night so hopefully that continues!

Ells - I want to tell you that you'll get used to it but .............you might not.

We had the same mattress for years (a wedding present from my Nan and Grandad) - when after a long time we came to change we tried out all different mattresses and settled on a really firm/hard one. When it arrived I couldn't wait to go to bed that night. I almost cried ........................I kept saying - it's not like getting into bed - it was like getting 'on the bed'.

We have had a few changes since - now have a lovely memory foam. TBH - our house is like a mattress factory. A 'Man with a Van' goes into Mr Woo's shop every so often with 'unbeatable offers' - he's always coming home with a new mattress - he just can't say no. I have a brand new one on my landing as we speak - waiting to do out the small bedroom.

Soozy....you just ruined my day! 

Sorry

Seriously though, I bloody better get used to it!  I had planned to get a cheaper one but because there was a good deal on I went for the more expensive one and my eldest got the cheaper one in a single.  Made his bed up last night and OH kept saying the cheaper mattress felt much more comfy.

Jen your being giddy last night reminded me of this video. Theres a few giddy people in it - watching it makes me giddy  

Roger!! I've just finished painting the the bathroom.. (the corner shop sold a cheap naff roller so it needs another coat tomorrow) while i was up there the kids have been on youtube and that song is playing right now through my speakers as i've taken the pc back for minute

Wow how spooooooky Jen

Great video isn't it? 

A five-year-old boy has been praised by Microsoft after he found a flaw in the Xbox security system.

Kristoffer Von Hassel, from San Diego, managed to hack into his father's Xbox Live account without having to put in the correct password.

When the login screen appeared, all Kristoffer had to do was press the space button several times.

By doing so, he managed to get in by the back door without needing to use the password.

The child's father, Robert Davies, who works in computer security, was so proud he recorded a video of the process which he sent to Microsoft.

Xbox has listed the child on its website as a "security researcher"

The security team at Microsoft quickly fixed the bug and put Kristoffer's name on the Xbox website, listing him as a "security researcher".

When he saw his name online, Kristoffer said: "I'm gonna be famous!"

It is not the first time he has outwitted technology.

When he was a one-year-old, he figured out how to unlock his father's phone by holding down the 'Home' button.

I don't see the big deal tbh.... That's how i walk down the street every day

Watching the Grand Prix qualifiers with his Daddeh!

Ooooooooooooooooh Fifteen to One is back NOW!!!!!

Hahahahahahaha

Just seen this ... Gran Canaria, getting up at 2.30 am For a 7 am flight!!

Oooooooooooh lucky you ...........have a fabulous time!!

So long as the sun is shining

Which it is ... 

Aww Rexi you lucky duck!!!

I am really going to miss going away this year but with being pregnant and the house needing so much done it's just not possible .  I love going on holiday but then again I get into such a tizzy and get stressed out and usually cry a bit before we go so maybe a break from the stress will be good 

BOSE

Anyone got said sound system?   I'm watching QVC at the minute (OK yes, it fascinates me)  

I have absolutely no intention of buying but I'm wondering what sets it apart from other sound systems 

What's the difference between a Senheiser or, say a Sony? 

Then you should have one!!  Some great deals to be had Aimee.  My OH and I went to Portugal for 5 days in October for less than £300 for flights, transfers and hotels.....and it could have been even cheaper if we had been more flexible on flights.  

We usually book a holiday then realise we can't actually afford it but still go ahead with it anyway which means all spare money goes towards it so we needed to give it a miss this year to get the house done and thankfully I've been able to give it a good start already.....but still loads more to do yet!

We are already thinking about where we're going next year

Seriously? How can you manage on that Aimee 

The spelling

crickey Aimee. Call that living?

Oooooh!    you could be right there! 

 Get yourself over to me for Sunday lunch sometime

I spend far too much on food ..................there is an art to surviving on less - I take my hat off to you.

 I don't know how you manage on that, Aims.

Aimee that's terrible.  Sorry for suggesting the holiday then 

just watched the monkey king...i imagine thats how you would see life if you smoked weed

A weekend in Newcastle is dead cheap you know, it's only your train fare, just Divven touch my white goods :wink: But if you fancy it, you're welcome.

now white goods is either

A-your white stilletoes

B-your stash

C-your washing machine

Aimee, I actually came in to blame you for my boiler breaking this morning. I had to go and shower at my neighbours house, don't worry people I didn't scuttle up and down the street in my towel. But Aimee, I was going to say it was your fault for tinkering with my post yesterday, implying that your tinkering caused a virus that extended to all of my appliances.
