Come hither all those who haven't found their place on mumsnet, have scrapped in Aibu or crossed words in chat. The buddy bench shalt not judge.

Welcome to the buddy bench, we look forward to meeting you all

Oh and don't forget, last one to leave polishes bench and locks up!

Valium would you like some after being on that thread

It has just been brought back to life , not by me though lol

Can I have a cuppa instead elmo ?

Only if i can drink the

Here ya go

You are blessed to have such a happy & contented baby tiredmum
Is your wound healing better now ? x

Elmo, our clocks went back three weeks ago, but I could have used the reminder then! Sadly, I am envious of your spring cleaning. I do a kind of Flylady-ish thing so never really have spring cleaning anymore. Used to love it though!

@ "valley girl" Cheerful. Soccer sounds absolutely adorable! Worthy of taking video. What a cute thing to be able to look back on someday!

Hard to imagine a picnic right now Valium, but sounds like fun! We are picnic obsessed in this family!

Pleased for you that he is a contented little chap Tiredmum. Especially with three to manage! How are you recovering?

Oh yes, my sister said her clocks went back a while ago and I was worried I had forgotten gomummy

I quite like valley girl - I might name change!

We LOVE picnics even in the winter we have been know to pack up the car and head off for one! :)

I can JUST imagine stopping to do karate in the middle of a footie match - how funny!

Wow, that was a wild thread Valium! Am often surprised at how some threads on MN can descend into that kind of thing, yet other threads are so amazing and supportive. Am so glad we have a no-bunfighting bench! :) Can I just say how lovely all of you buddy benchers are?

See Tiredmum I think I'll get a lie in, I'll go to bed early and enjoy my clock reading 6.30am when DS wakes instead of 5.30am Psychologically it'll feel good to me after weeks of early risings and if he can keep it up it'll all be dandy

I am lurking and reading. Might have a look at Valium's thread too

gomummy We all get on so well here its lovely isn't it .
Sounds like a good plan tea

I do love our Bench. So calm. :)

Wow valley, that thread was crazy! I remember once on a thread someone was being really derogatory to me for being "so bloody nice" and I finally said "yes, I am nice, I can teach you how if you like." Some people!

Glad the little one is doing well tiredmum ! How are the big boys feeling about him?

I like the clocks going forward - it's when they go back that first day is soooooooooooooooo long!!!!!

Sunny here again, homework done and ds is out on his bike with his mate later.

yanky 'that' thread is STILL going on, she determined to keep coming back for one last pop and to 'defend herself against the bullies. Most bizarre I'll leave her to it now. Can't bear it when people dish it out but can't take it when someone disagrees!

I'm washing uniform AGAIN, it's never ending..................

I wish my DS got to wear a uniform. I can barely get us out of the door as it is, I can't imagine when/if I have more children and they're all in school. It would be nice if outfit choices didn't factor in.

i want some

Allo cheeky

Cheerful the boys love having him around

Thats a good way of looking at it tea, i just dont like losing an hour, i need all the sleep i can get

I like a good cuddle

Here cheeky Is it one of those days ?

I know what you mean valium i have just finished ironing dd & ds's uniforms

cheerful uniforms can be a bit of a PITA tbh , i have to change dc's as soon as they get in from school out of their uniforms so as they stay clean for school the next day .

tiredmum ahh its great the boys love their little brother

Hope you are all enjoying the weekend

tiredmum

We are just chilling out at home today & enjoying the lovely weather , in between me chasing the evil dog pup around the garden to get socks back that he has stolen off the washing line ...

Cheers

no its not one of those days i just want wine lol. plus iv got period pain today :(

We're skint and i could do with a glass but have to wait until Wednesday.

Ahh well in that case here have another

I might even have one myself - Cheers

Cheer

elmo that sounds like fun, what a cheeky sounding pup you have

Sorry you got a bit of pain cheeky, hope it dont last

I better just have a as i am still bfing

im going to make a next :)

Thank gawd cheeky, me mouth was getting dry

He is cheeky Tiredmum , He robs anything he can get his chops around & lies down on them to hide them from me grrrrrrrrr

Is that you in your FB photo elmo ? I've just liked it. :)

I really need to come see you all. I'm going to need to figure out a plan and then put it into action. :) I have a friend who went to school in London and has been desperate to pop over for a visit...maybe the two of us will figure something out.

While I'm there I'm going to wear a shirt that says "CheerfulYank" all the time to see if anyone recognizes me :O

Oooooooooo I am so excited! Ds has just given me a newsletter from school and we will have a summer uniform for the boys - shorts and polo shirt and NO ties!!!!!!

Up until the old headmaster retired the children had to wait to be told when to take off their jumpers - even in 30 degree heat!! So this is good news.

Hello cheekysox nice to meet you :)
