I went shopping and didn’t buy squashies....I actually didn’t feel like eating them 😲🤣 and when I say eat, I mean the whole pack. That’s why I don’t buy them much...

We have some of them here. They are pretty nice

That’s just cruel! I did buy a large amount of cherries. They’re my favourite fruit 🤤 and some donut nectarines. Grapes aren’t bad but I find them a little sweet, especially the red ones. Weird me 🙄
 
I found my highway code book out. I finally posted my provisional application form a couple of weeks ago. I know it will be stuck in the dvla backlog so could take a while to come back & I'm not getting too excited as I still expect something to go wrong but I can sort of be prepared right?

Be positive. Whatever goes wrong can be sorted. When are you starting your lessons?

I don't want to book any until it comes back but have been researching local instructors. Looking at the dvla page on facebook the backlog could take months to clear as obviously they now have limited staff in due to social distancing. I posted a paper form though with a photo & my biometric passport number on so they can use that as ID, many of the comments on the dvla page said with the online form they sent a paper copy out to be filled in also, so hoping mine will be straight forward.

I'm sort of expecting something eye related to come back but we will see. I'm so wishing I'd have done this years ago though!

@SkyPipDotBernie my fave tangfastics are the cherries

@Siikibam I finally had squashies! They were drumstick ones are they the right ones? My best organised virtual bingo and put sweets as prizes and bingo cards through the letterbox. When I won I went straight for squashies after seeing so many comments on here.

After a tough afternoon/evening last night with Jessica constantly feeding or screaming (I mean seriously when I say my baby is tired and needs to sleep it's a great big hint to stop playing and overstimulating her!) The little lady slept for 7.5 hours last night, I got around 7 hours sleep myself. Then today she almost did her first roll, top leg came right over - knee to ground and then rolled back. Top half needs to learn how to get over but it won't be long. I was cheering her on :))

Yes they’re the right ones. What did you think? Now you make me want some but who closed 😭

Go Jessica. Just a few more practises and you’ll be a pro 😁 the little milestones are fab! Hopefully the constant feeding and not sleeping will soon pass. You’re doing very well.

Loved them but then I haven't found a sweet I don't like yet :))

Well done little Jessica! When you have mastered this rolling over on your tummy Jessica Mummy will be constantly rolling you back onto your back because you haven't learned how to do it yet and you get all frustrated! Not putting a dampener on your joy of watching your baby develop just letting you know how it is so you're prepared!

Oh I am ready for this as well as the panic of not having a baby proofed house when she is starting to move around :yikes:

Have you ever tried tootsie rolls? They are American sweets and they can also keep them 🤢

I don't think I have though I have been to America several times as a child and then a couple of times as an adult so I could have just forgotten.

I'm not overly bothered about any haribos to be honest, but Parma Violets eeew yukky! We used to get given them at school as a reward for doing well in spelling tests, etc. Seriously it was no incentive, I'm surprised I can spell at all! Lol! It's like chewing perfume 🤢😱

If you've ever tried 'toxic waste' sweets too, then yes they are very appropriately named 🤢

I had a Sunday roast at my parents sat in their garden last night, it was lovely 😍 mmm. Just a shame it was a bit breezy & cold. Mum & I went for a little walk with the dog afterwards though :)

:agr: Parma Violets who ever thought of that as a sweet?!?:vom:

they make Parma violet gin now too, I had to try a sip when my colleague had some at a do... It was vile, I don't like gin either, but wondered if 2 wrongs made a right! Lol 😂 x
 
Parma violets I'm on the fence with. Would never chose them over another sweet but don't dislike them either. I brought the hubby some Parma violet liqueur a couple of years back as he loves them, it went down well. I've not had toxic waste but as I love all the sour sweets I would probably like it. My current faves are the supermarket own brand rainbow belts, they are so much more sour than tangfastics
 
I went through no end of tangfastics when I was pregnant with my son, I had them everywhere, work pigeon hole, hand bag, locker, and everyone knew if they finished them they had to replace them! Can still eat a whole packet given a chance!
