On a Cold and Frosty Morning , Welcome to the STAFF ROOM

what has upset me is that what it says might not even be true - but that that could happen if you see what i mean? I think i'm just oversensitive @ the moment i'm usually a real tough cookie but i look @ my boy and those things terrify me and i know how extremely rare cases like that are but it makes me shudder . . . his poor mother

i read that maxi its not nice
i live in Preston and thats where the court case was held i remember the riots at the time
didnt know some of the facts that it said which were upseting to read

Thanks for the warning - I can't handle stuff like that at the best of times but with added hormones, I'm grateful for the warning!

Off to bed now xx

looney - i don't want to tell you but i feel you will find it if you go looking so i'll tell you

it was about the abduction of james bulger and gave graphic details of his murder PLEASE dont read it - just delete it if you get it

my son has just been 3yrs old so this has really hit a raw nerve

Looney - you go careful, we tell the children not to climb on chairs.

Well after another long day with mindees and then sorting out DD's school xmas cards and DH birthday cards, I have just had a nice long soak in the bath now ready for an early night (just check on here first) but wessex water have just started to dig up the pavement outside nextdoors house!! I hope it doesn't go on to long.
Have a nice sleep and see you all in the morning .

I've just been checking my funwall (haven't for ages) and may have had it but not sure as so many different things. How do i know what your one was about?

yeah it was fun wall and really don't read it if someone sends it - what makes it worse in a way is it wasn't even on my wall but a friends - i was just being nosey

Thanks Maxi. Oh god, I'm wondering if I've had the chain thing now? Was it via funwall or something? Sorry you are

I know Fine now thanks

looney - it was me that was upset over facebook - it wasn't to do with children's photo's - but it was a chain letter thing and it's really upset me and i feel real depressed and have been in tears and feeling sick about it - i shouldn't have read it but i did

god i hope you're ok after the chair incident - i fell flat on my tum when preg with dd she was fine - babies are very well protected in there safe&snug - congrats by the way

How are you Looney you bloody Loon

shosh - don't worry, you've not worried me And don't worry, anything major and I'll be right down the hospital!

Mo - sorry you're having a bad time

I'm here

I know, I know, why am I suprised? mindee mum just phoned to say sorry 'I missed my train' She said 'I just didnt realise the time! Its her sons birthday ffs, would you forget what's important!

In aboiut 5 mins i will be starting a screaming tread to let off steam about something, but i cant until baby gone home!

I'll be ok after a cuppa and a sneaky mars bar - kettle just boiled. I have a little wall area for the kids glittery Christmas pictures/cut outs etc. and I was taping tinsel round the edges of the area to make it look nicer. Poor ds was a little upset but I said '....and THAT'S why we don't stand on chairs!' LMG's recommended I phoned midwife and I'm glad I did. Midwife agrees the twinges are probably because I've twisted myself but I can go to local hospital (not main one) on Friday between 9-1 and she'll check baby is ok to reassure me. Obviously if I get worried due to pain/bleeding then I can go down to EPU.

What an idiot!!!

I'm such a f'ing idiot!!!! I've just fallen off a chair, should never have been stood on one in the first place. Hope Buba is ok, poor ds said 'no, mummy, you've hurt the baby' Off to make a cuppa and calm down!

EM - thanks, just read your input. That's what I was thinking, best of both worlds as you can wash a rug a lot easier

Cheers for the link Mo - I've posted

As for wooden floor - going to have difficulty in getting dh to change his mind as he's set on wooden. Reason for doing the lounge is because it's all connected downstairs so it's either yes to wooden or no, can't split it. We'll have a nice big rug in lounge which will be non slip so that will make more cosey. I'm just sick of disgusting unhygenic carpet YUCK!

we too have wooden floor in lounge/diner/playroom. got foam mats too makes it softer to sit on! would agree about new walkers but they do get it eventually! also got large cushions too. i do have a pure wool rug by sofas but every stain has come straight out! love my floors to be honest! best of both worlds.

looney i'll have a look and see, thanks!

plus toys are better on wooden floors such as cars etc
got myself form mats from ELC set of 4 = £10 they are bright colours and the toys look good on them

Here you go!

I've got wooden flooring in the hall and kitchen. Personally, I'd not put it in the lounge, it just doesn't feel warm and snuggly to me. Also, it may be more hygenic, but only because you'll have to clean it more often!

Another thing, babies definately take longer to learn to walk on hard floor than on carpet.

School time.....! Laters!

i have wooden floors to the whole downstairs so much better when wheeling prams in and muddy feet
