It's raining again and I insist it stops for Sunday when my son is throwing a barbecue for my 65th birthday.

Oh and my great niece, 3 in August, is wonderful and we adore each other!

UrsulaPandress · 08/06/2017 12:41

It can't rain tomorrow either as it is Brass Band Contest Day and it is pants if wet.

x2boys · 08/06/2017 12:41

1 more day!

How long until Mumsnet is Mumsnet again afterwards do you think?

Angelicinnocent · 08/06/2017 18:22

Against all MN tradition, my mil can be very nice. She has just popped round (20 min drive) with a carrot cake, a chocolate pie and a quiche. She didn't even stay for a cuppa!

Bringmewineandcake · 08/06/2017 18:37

nugget 2 or 3 depending on your hair style.

I have properly broken my diet by eating 12 Jaffa cakes after 3 weeks of 800 cals a day Sad

ClementineWardrobe · 08/06/2017 18:38

TheColonel number 3 is my favourite, best wishes for the day and the future.

Asmoto · 08/06/2017 18:40

x2boys Any chance you can post a pic of your new pup - it would be lovely and cheering on this rainy evening!

Hulababy · 08/06/2017 18:53

thecolonelbumminganugget - 2 or 3 depending on how you re wearing your hair

thecolonelbumminganugget · 08/06/2017 18:54

Thanks, number 3 was my favourite!

Can I get some motivation to get packing from this thread too, please? I'm moving out on Saturday, and still have the kitchen and some other bits to do, and I m getting nowhere as I've had D+V the last two days Sad I need a big kick in the (waterproof Grin) pants as the movers are supposed to be coming tomorrow afternoon, and I'm nowhere near ready...

MrsPringles · 08/06/2017 19:02

I got home from our Mexico honeymoon this morning. I haven't slept since Tuesday night, because of a crappy flight time plus delays - I'm actually bordering on hysteria from the lack of sleep ConfusedGrin

But DH has just put 2yr old DS to bed and gone to get a curry then it's STRAIGHT to sleep!

And look, just look at how gorgeous it was....

Bringme I wouldn't worry about a little blow out like that-it's around 550kcal and if you stick to your 800 the rest of the day you'll still be in a deficit Smile

Code42 · 08/06/2017 19:06

Gorgeous pics, Mrs!

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 08/06/2017 19:08

Yeah whatev's pringles, looks boring cries in to wine glass in jealousy Grin

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 08/06/2017 19:10

Oooh just remembered, I am surrounded by puppies right now. One friend has got a gorgeous slinky black lab puppy, another has a Bichon pup and a third has a lovely girl Cavapoo that's just had a litter, they're still all pink and smooth! Sorry none of them mine though so prob not ok to post the pics....I'm going to sit and stare at them for a bit though.....

MrsPringles · 08/06/2017 19:19

Judas
I'm whispering this so the bad mum police don't hear but the mentioned 2yr old, he didn't come with us Blush
He thinks we went to work on an aeroplane and stayed at home and had a lovely time being spoilt rotten by DM and MIL

We spent 10 days in 5 star all inclusive CHILD FREE paradise Grin

TheSecondOfHerName · 08/06/2017 19:25

I hope I don't break the thread but I'm going to use a banned word....

DS1 is sad because his Government & Politics AS exam went badly. The silver lining is that he came home and comfort-baked, so we had warm homemade chocolate brownies with vanilla ice-cream.
