Due in June - big tum, spreading bum

[derlor]

hello

i'm sure if we all try hard enough we could make diet coke one of your 5 a day.....right lets get a list of ingredients

Coke is flavoured with vegetable extracts! Bring on 5 a day!

Seansgirl you are so lovely ! Which phone did you get?

How about: 'Due in June - am I unreasonable to expect the nanny to give birth for me?'

ROFL!

Bugger - now I'm really craving a dc. DH is out tonight I wonder if pizza shop will deliver just a can?? Ah well, looks like it's pizza for dinner

Ooh, pizza... Love the stuff.

Actually, when I was a student I worked at Pizza Express. Mainly because if you worked the right shift you got two free pizzas - one for lunch, one for supper. And I still went back there the week after I left...

Right, got to get ready for my weekly pregnancy pilates. ALthough if LO keeps kicking me in the bladder I might not be terribly attentive during class...

marylou - love the thread title. After all she's probably been providing relief for the DH in that sort of situation. I base all my knowledge on what I see on TV, the nearest I've ever been to a nanny was a goat...
What's wrong with diet coke? I probably shouldn't have asked that. Surely it's better than gin and tonic?
My children keep asking when I am going to feed them, so I suppose I should. Very anti-Ria meal tonight - chicken veg & noodles (some would call it stirfry but they won't go for that.) Pizza for me later. Shouldn't have too much fruit and veg and there will be onions on it...

I'm sure a little bit of cafeine in the coke won't hurt. I still drink a bit of coffee, was told it's ok.

Right, I'm off to order the maid to iron my size 8 maternity hotpants, or I'll have nothing to go with the crop top as I grace the sofa this evening.

Nice one Marylou!

Oh go on, let's use Marylou's title next thread.

I used to work in the City (still do but from home iyswim) and went to a very swish Goldman's party one evening. The wives were discussing what to buy the teacher as an end of term present. As I come from a family of teachers and wanted to be helpful, I suggested not to get chocolates, but 'something nice from Boots, The Sanctuary toiletries perhaps'. They looked at me as if I was completely mad - they were talking in terms of £200 gift baskets from Jo Malone and gift vouchers for a 2 night break at Champney's. Kept my mouth zipped after that.

Oh how the other half live... (MY BIL is in the Masons - let's not go there - and that makes me feel like the poor relation).

Up here in the grim bit of the north - "presents for teachers? they bloody get paid don't they?"

As a personal treat I LOVE sancutary toiletries and feel very special because I have some (that I bought for myself I mught add).

The original point of my post:-
TEATIME CHEZ RIA

DS2 "Is this homemade mummy?"
DS1 (worried) "Why is he saying this is homemeade mummy?"
FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fishfingers & oven chips & beans tomorrow...

oh doggus - they must have thought you were "terribly middle class Darling"!!!!!
i know a girl who teaches at private school and one of her Christmas presents from a pupil was a DIAMOND NECKLACE!!!!! FFS
Marylou - FAB title thread
Sputnik you'll be looking GOOD on the sofa tonight though surely you should be off out clubbing after making such a effort??????

You lot are too funny: I keep burning the Risotto. Back in a while...

Re presents for teachers - Sorry to all those teachers I offended! (DS1 sewed a lavendar bag with xmas lace for his teacher for Xmas. I'm not completely tightfisted, just if I'm spending £200 on vouchers they will be for me - I WISH)

may I vent please?

Right, just got back from lunch with kids and friend, had a lovely time. Found someone had put a ladder up on my shed roof to climb in over my conservatory roof into the flat upstairs (we are gf/basement they are 1st /2nd). Called woman next door, but she hadn't seen anything, but was v concerned. Ring doorbell, no answer. Then I hear movement. On verge of calling police. Hear someone coming down the stairs so I go to my window expecting to see burly blokes lifting tvs and computers out!

Turns out the new girl got locked in the bathroom, had to climb out of the window, shimmy down the drainpipe, climb back in. Now, I have no problem with what she did - none at all, would hate it to happen to me so would have been glad that she got back in ok - must've been an ordeal.

I have a huge problem with the fact she didn't leave a note, didn't bother to knock as she dashed out "I'm late for a premier" and didn't come and move the fucking ladder. How rude/inconsiderate and stupid is she?

right, thanks for listening. Am now going to catch up with the arvos goss!

Quite right to be mad Foxy.

if i were you i'd smear a substantial amount of poo from your LO's nappy onto her farking ladder so when she DOES move it she gets a little more than she bargained for off to a premier indeed!!! who is your neighbour Gweneth farkin Paltrow??????

have i taken that too far??????????????

no, she's a nanny. but given thats her day job she won't be up for babysitting in the evenings so she's no use to me anyway. no bridges burnt there.

fucking arse

nanny what kind of car does she drive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Foxy - what a daft bint, she should have left you a note of course. AND moved the ladder.

Derlor - I diagnosed myself as middle class this weekend when I read the papers on Kate n William's split - you are middle class if you say 'toilet' or 'dinner' for 'lunch'. Now, as a northerner we had breakfast, dinner and tea. It has taken me years to get out of this habit here down south....and a few misunderstandings along the way.

Ria - my mum would have been delighted with a lavender bag. It was just that she literally got 32 boxes of Roses at Christmas (partic after they ran that 'thank you very much' campaign). Of course my dad and I rejoiced...

doggus i would say breakfast, lunch and dinner or tea
however i have NEVER had or called toilet for lunch - hillarious typo error

my DS corrects my MIL "its not dinner, nana, its lunch".

He's also picked her up on her pronounciation of "book"

if I cried do you think my kids would stop fighting and eat their tea, or should I just stick to begging?

little farkers

derlor - what are you talking about? I always make packed toilets

foxy just stay on here and ignore them - thats what i do!!!

you are right derlor. when we were driving back from my parents at the weekend and they were fighting in the back I told them I wasn't interested unless they drew blood.

They thought I'd set them a challenge!

gits.

and yet you're just about to have no. 4 why oh why oh why??????
though maybe it'll even it up they say 3 is the worst. oh dear please don't tell me i'll have to have another one......... what have i done?????????????
