No, we just wanted to talk about you behind your back, so we needed to make sure you weren't here!

Good Morning, how is everybody, I am off to Soft Play today.

Ahh were you all worried about me, (just been talking to London )

MamaG · 12/02/2008 09:06

lol!
No, post won't arrive until 9.30ish but I'm at work (DH will no doubt let me know though)

MaureenMLove · 12/02/2008 09:02

I'm sure no-one minds MamaG. You are after all a minder of your own children and its useful to see it from the other side sometimes! Got your post yet? I hope it travelled OK, it may be a complete disaster! I sent little pots of food paste! Kinda made the pots myself, so it could be carnage in that envelope! It is a padded one and the paste is individually wrapped in cling film and then all together in tinfoil. Oh well, we'll see. If its a mess, I'll just send the instructions again, without the paste!

Morning all

Kay - your neighbours sound awful!

Mindee and DS's are eating their toast, then two little ones are going down for morning nap whilst I get on with housework for an hour, then we are having a trip into town today to do DS's trust fund, because he is turning 1 on saturday and I still havnt done it.

Hope everyone has a good day

MamaG · 12/02/2008 08:35

Hi all

Thought I'd better check: does anybody (apart from Mo and Shoshe!) mind me sneaking in here, on a regular basis? [worried]

KaySamuels · 12/02/2008 08:17

There have been a few threads on here lately rose about the LIDL antiwrinkle lotion - is meant to be fabby! Do you have one near you? Worth giving it a go for the price!

KaySamuels · 12/02/2008 08:15

I could but I like her to have her run of the yard as she is a huge rabbit! We put food and toys out and she potters about. Hutch is right size but she can't excercise in it IYSWIM. Will have to get DP to look at fence and gate when he gets home from work.

MaureenMLove · 12/02/2008 08:07

Kay! That's really bad about the neighbours, if it is them. Could you put a lock on the rabbit hutch door, if you can't secure the yard?

KaySamuels · 12/02/2008 07:59

Morning, I have a late start today so got a lovely lie in and me and ds have just had crumpets for brekkie. Have a late finish on a Tuesday so quite relieved I didn't have to be up at the crack of dawn. I am staying home today and chilling out with ds and mindees, may go in garden if it goes sunny.

My rabbit Pinky keeps getting out of our yard, at first we thought she was doing it herself but now I am pretty sure my crazy neighbour is letting her out. If I can't find her DS will be heartbroken. Said neighbour feeds mindee's dog through the gate, and also feeds the wild mice, rabbits and seaguls daily. I am going to have to secure the yard somehow but god knows how! Aarghh!

crace · 12/02/2008 07:57

Morning! Word is meant to be lovely again, and then back to being cold again soon

Busy day today, it's the day everyone comes and goes. Have a good day!

MaureenMLove · 12/02/2008 07:56

Morning. I've got myself a late start this morning. One mum switched to a late shift at last minute and another taking ds to school herself, because she's got a late start. I've got one to take to school then. He arrives 2 minutes before we need to leave, then don't start til 10! Won't be finished til 6 though instead of 5 tonight!

Going to a Beetle Drive at Guides tonight, to raise funds for a couple of Guides going on International Camp to Switzerland. Much fun, but exhausting, so I may need to have a quite afternoon at least, to prepare myself!
