Mumsnet Talk

well, I will do for the next six weeks

Have you read it?

Who is Conchita's husband? He looks so familiar.

Oh, I've missed this so far- I shall turn over now. I'm excited about Sherlock too: I'll miss that next week

Me too

Enema!

Nope- enemas and afterbirths, I can't do that. I'm trying to eat my tea.

Minty!

I'm really disappointed.....don't rate the acting at all.

ha dp is moaning at how bbc sunday night this programme is

Dh just said that. He's glad he's at work.

Interesting test for pre eclampsia

The whole thing is trying a bit too hard...why are the midwives all so posh?? Hope it gets better.

I've sloped off to bed to watch this n sherlock in comfy peace (I'm 35 weeks) I have matchmakers and soft nougat (m&s no less)

<smug> uniform out and packed lunch done

you get the feeling no 25 isn't going to go too well?

It's like a vv grim OBEM from the olden days.

Clawdy, maybe because only the 'posher' classes had access to education and training back then to become skilled workers??? Just a guess

I was just about to suggest that

Oh no no25 isn't, a thread on pg board said old fashioned advice about not raising arms re pegging washing out had some truth in it re blood pressure I think, dizziness. Hmm did she trip though

Yes, the not so posh would be having all the babies!

Oh bother! Meant to watch this-which channel is it on?

where loads of the miswives irish? Or was that later than 1957?

My MIL was a miswife in london 1960 and from what she says tons of them were

I'm trying to watch it but can't concentrate. Was looking forward to it as I've now successfully given DD2 her marching orders but I'm still a bit distracted and hyper. Will have to see it on iPlayer.

In t'olden days you had to pay to train as a nurse, hence the "posher" voices.
It's shaping up well

I see your point,bigeyes,but they are not just posh,they're almost Downton!

mind you my mil is irish herself so maybe it's just her friend she went over with that she talks about lol
