Blimey, not read this lot yet - but 126 posts and this thread was only started yesterday?!

foxybrown · 29/03/2007 20:05

last night in fact, Bumper! How are you today?

You stick here with us, mummyjx. I wouldn't go public with my use of disposables. 4 children in 5.5 years, I've often had 2 in nappies at a time. Am definately not holding my hand up to that in the scary outer threads!

foxybrown · 29/03/2007 20:06

whats a 'jumpin' jax' holly?

I totally agree with you Mummyjx - I thought MN was full of support and kindness. Am so naive!

bumperlicious · 29/03/2007 20:08

People who I secretly fancy but know I shouldn't: Nick Knowles (from DIY SOS), Alan Rickman (that voice) and Angelina Jolie...

Daisybump · 29/03/2007 20:11

LOL foxy..have you got your own landfill site then????

hollyandtheeasterbunny · 29/03/2007 20:13

I think disposable nappies are one of "those" subjects! At the end of the day having a baby is hard enough without having to wash and dry 10 nappies a day!

Foxy Jumpin' Jaks is a really tacky Western themed bar. I used to work there. Us bar girlies used to pull pints and dance both on the bar and on stage. Not raunchy dancing, more along the lines of Steps, Coyote Ugly, hot pants and short tops type thing. Was very fun at the time, but not something I'd repeat!

hollyandtheeasterbunny · 29/03/2007 20:14

I served Nick Knowles champagne once bumper! He was a right twunt!

Daisybump · 29/03/2007 20:14

Oooh Bumper, I'm with you on Nick Knowles...there's something about that five o'clcok shadow that gets me every time....
I must also admit that I'm a bit mad keen on Gordon Ramsay...had to watch the re-run of the F-word last night cos he takes his shirt off at the beginning (drooling emoticon)!!

hollyandtheeasterbunny · 29/03/2007 20:15

I get Alan Rickman though! Esp in Sense and Sensibility! Mmmm that voice! Even as Professor Snape he's quite yummy!

Thanks for asking Foxy, I'm alright. Just been to see the osteopath again. Apparently I have a week left hip/bum muscle so no amount of bone clicking is going to help unless I strengthen it, so have exercises to do. Still sleeping terribly due to back pain which osteo can't explain, and limited as to what he can do as I am pregnant and bub is in the way (plus I am a big wuss and cower everytime he comes near me!)

Cried AGAIN at work today. I have so much that I have to wrap up before I go and work in a big bureacratic organisation and no one person can tell all the things I need to sort out before I leave. It's one person for leave, one for pay, one for redeployment (I will get a different job when I go back) another for IT (what happens to my email while I'm off for 10 months?!) and all the woman could say to me today was "you're worrying too much, you need to stop worrying" Argghhh - not helpful! So I went to welfare and cried to a welfare officer "I'm not coping very well and no-one at work seems to notice ", she was very nice and understanding, but not much she can do. Problem is I work with a bunch of young people who all they want to do is go out and get hammered etc. Not one of them has said "So you have this major life-changing thing going on at the moment - how's that going?". Urgghhh. Sorry, bit of a long rant. I'm just fed up of not being me, of being in pain, feeling miserable and tired and crying at the slightest thing. I just want to be the real me again!

Daisybump · 29/03/2007 20:17

Holly...you've shattered my illusion (and probably Bumper's as well)
I once served Christopher Eccleston in the pub where I worked as a student, and he propositioned me...sort of. Instead of coming back at him with some wotty repartee, I just stood there and simpered and giggled like a twunt! Regrets, I've had a few...

foxybrown · 29/03/2007 20:19

Oh yes to Alan Rickman - he can be so sinister! (always love a bad boy!) Er, I think everyone goes for Angelina Jolie, don't they?!?

Gordon Ramsey was one of my 2nd Trimester dreams ... saucy but I don't fancy him.

foxybrown · 29/03/2007 20:22

ooh, I lurrvve Christoper Eccleston!

He was hot in Dr Who - in his leather coat ...mmmmmm....

Daisybump · 29/03/2007 20:24

Crossed posts Bumper...you poor thing...I felt a bit of what you're going through with my first pg so know how you feel....this one, although the hormones have been horrendous, and I've done a LOT of crying, I'll be swinging out of that office tomorrow not caring what happens to my e-mails (someone else will deal with them), or what I'll do when I get back (if I even go back). Also got lots to get through tomorrow, but I'll do my best to finish up with no loose ends, and if I don't...well someone else will deal with it!! Not v conscientious I know, but I've sweated blood and tears over that job for two years and have had very little thanks for it...so, I'm a bit de-mob happy this evening!!

hollyandtheeasterbunny · 29/03/2007 20:25

Poor bumper! It's horrible when things get on top of you! You'll feel so much better once you go on maternity leave, you'll be able to relax and get some rest. Not long to go now!

Daisybump · 29/03/2007 20:27

Ooh...the new Doctor who is pretty special...love the eyebrows, and in a strange can't put my finger on it way.....your man from Hotel Babylon who was in Bodies....can't remember his name, which is irritating in the extreme.
god, my list is endless.......got a thing about doctors...when I met DH he was looking very much like Doctor Green from ER....now he looks like Doctor Green form ER after too many pies and pints of beer

derlor · 29/03/2007 20:28

holy moly 142 posts since last night!! - i'm off to catch up probably take me 1/2 hour os so......

foxybrown · 29/03/2007 20:28

Bumper, why isn't your HR department dealing with all that? As a former HR bod, they should be doing all that, and there should be systems in place for it.

You do feel shitty, huh? Soon you can be on here eating buns and chatting to us all day! How much longer with those grown-ups?

doggus · 29/03/2007 20:29

OMG you were a Jumpin Jaxie, holly! Yes I have been to the one in Bournemouth, I was 36, and about 18 years older than everyone. I ended up dancing on stage, utterly pissed, to dh's delight. It's a complete tourist trap nowadays. I now have an image of you holly - I reckon you're a Victoria Silvstedt-alike. Tall, blonde, big boobs...God I am not bringing dh if I meet you in John Lewis!

Bumper - have a virtual hug. Your work sounds a bit of a nightmare and being in constant pain is always a huge downer.

foxybrown · 29/03/2007 20:32

Max Beardsely/beadsley something??? Scary Spice's ex?

New doctor seems a bit skinny (and short). Though I think he is fab, just doesn't float my boat.

Derlor, hows DD? Did you get any sleep last night?

Did you dream about Big Cook Ben, or Little Cook Small? (the temptation of the deliberate typo...)

Daisybump · 29/03/2007 20:33

Hey I'm short....

hollyandtheeasterbunny · 29/03/2007 20:33

Lol doggus!! If you go to Jaks you have to dance on stage, I think it's the law! Blimey, I'm not thin (anymore), or blonde! I have a fat arse and saggy boobs!

Daisybump · 29/03/2007 20:35

Keep seeing things on the "Am I being unreasonable" threads and have my response typed....then think better of it and retire gracefully before anyone even knows I have an opinion.....is this normal...i just find it hard to scroll past them. MN should put them at the end with the CHAT topics

hollyandtheeasterbunny · 29/03/2007 20:36

I really fancy Louis Theroux! That's a confession!
