Re: How much do you spend on birthday gifts?

I spend between £10 and £15, sometimes slightly over if it's the very best friend. I think over £20 is too much. I also don't like when my kids get too big/expensive presents.

Re: bureau de change

Thanks all! I have just checked the travelmoney... website and I've found a very good rate close to my office, that's great!
I have also compared with the post office and it is actually not very good, only slightly better than my bank.

Re: Latchmere Rd Car crash 11/2/14: Appeal for witnesses

Hi, sorry I'm not a witness but I am a personal injury solicitor. I've just had a look at some case law and most of the time when a collision occurs with an emergency vehicle there is a split of liability, although sometimes it is held that the emergency driver is 100% liable. It would be better if ...

Re: 3 nights away w/out kids? UK or away?

Last year we had 4 days and we went to Florence. it was fantastic. Depending what you want really, resting in a luxury hotel in the sun, or if you like art, culture and gastronomy (and wine!), Florence is a good option.

Re: Kids Ski wear

Re: Hey new to the website

Welcome! From my experience (I have 3 children) the older child/children feel much more rewarded if THEY choose and give a present to the new baby, rather than receiving something themselves. My older children remember which one of the cuddly toy they gave the baby even after a few years. I doubt th...
