Hey ladies!
Ive managed to get in here before the thread has finished!!! Yayh!
Ive tried to catch up as much as poss, but im such a slow coach at reading so have forgotten tge half of it abi is bad Martian 
Mummy - Sorry to hear about buying cycling incident, hope your dp is feeling a little less shaken today.
Grey- in primary we had school colour drawstring bags,and high school I had carrier bags (normally from newlook or somewhere! ) most of our school did! Ahhhh I put all the guesses I could do the other week when peeps starting talking about 20week scans, dont worry im feeling lazy too with stuff like that, but lest we not forget we are actually growing humans (Martians) so we have every right to be lazy!
ive got my scan on 11th Nov so im thinking in the last one to get scanned? :0/ seems ages away, and im hoping im sporting a pink been bump but it will probably end up being blue!!
Re: homemade gifts, I think they can be great, ive done a few paintings for christening gifts, but only to the people I know who will appreciate them, same with birthday presents. But I would love to be able to have the time to do it more, I will get vouchers for a place I know they'd shop in, but would never take a chance on a voucher. And xmas the kids get 5quid spent on each at stuff bought from local bargains galore, because kids break things so easily!! And last year I made xmas tree shaped cookies with either a warmed spice flavouring, vanilla or chocolate. I then used tge clear cellophane card bags and tied them up with gift string and made the string spiral. I was actually quite proud ofthem. I also do the same with cchocolate rum balls orwhite choc vodka balls, but would live to try my hand at hhomemade fudge, as most people like it! Eeeeeek im getting excited for Xmas now!
Feeling very tired, and still suffering from nausea here and there and have the MOT due on car tomorrow which Im praying it passes as what the hell would I do with the school run?!?
Sorry, I seemed to gave produced an essay! !
