Just got back from the cinema I must be crackers.
Had to get the bus into the city, then a taxi from there to cinema, sit through fuck knows how long of Alvin and the Chipmunks whilst trying not to vomit at the smell of popcorn, in the taxi back to the city I'm sure I was getting contractions, but they calmed down when we went to McD's, I had about eight, roughly every ten minutes for about 30 seconds, was weird, thoguht I was going into labour in the middle of oxford city centre
Now I am soooo tired, I don't know how some of you ladies still work at this stage, you must be crazy.
