Ah, my sister probably won't know her, then - she's in year 11, but wisely fleeing to KE Stourbridge for SF. She only has 25 days of school left (almost down to 24 now!), not that she's counting

Juwesm · 16/03/2009 14:37

Whilst at college, we tried to have a drink in every pub on the number 9 bus route from Stourbridge to Birmingham (not all in one day, I hasten to add). Failed miserably. Plus, that bus goes through some pretty dodgy areas!

SpringySunshine · 16/03/2009 14:37

How depressing is this?

It's finally got a little bit sunny here, so I decided to open the windows to make the most of it. The sound of traffic going past is a summer sound for me. I actually associate TRAFFIC NOISE through an open window with summer. Not birds singing, or children playing. Traffic.

Stupid Birmingham / Black Country

surprisenumber3 · 16/03/2009 14:38

small, small world!

SpringySunshine · 16/03/2009 14:38

The number 9 is my bus From the Hagley Road - Colmore Row

Juwesm · 16/03/2009 14:39

No, I'm with you on that. Well, birds plus traffic anyway, but we're right by a main road here. Perhaps it is the sound of lots of jolly families off to enjoy springtime picnics, days at the beach etc.

LuLuBai · 16/03/2009 14:39

Isn't the Hagley Road the red light district?

BabyBolat · 16/03/2009 14:40

Ok I have no hope on catching up today - having a grr day working and the bloomers, hobnobs and yam yams are confusing my poor pregnant brain!!

Bleu - i am with the others - you need to politely decline the offer - write down everything you need to do and want to do, prioritise and allocate tasks between you and your DH and you will be fine! I am with you, having IL's round IS entertaining so you will have to do more work to get ready for them and while they are there. Lovely lovely thought by your DH but no thank you very much lovely husband I think is the way to go!!!

surprisenumber3 · 16/03/2009 14:40

lol springy, it's quite quiet where I live. Definitely more birds singing and children playing than traffic anyway but I know what you mean, from where I used to live.

Number 9 - HA! And the night service from Birmingham 9N, terminated at Halesowen..why oh why!

Got to dash to pick DS's up. Back in a short while...

Juwesm · 16/03/2009 14:41

Hurrah for the number 9! Hmmmm, now, what about Snobs? And Edwards? Is Edwards still open? Where does a girl go for grungy rock in Brum these days?

I went to the Arcadian when visiting a friend a couple of years ago - it was like hell on Earth!

Juwesm · 16/03/2009 14:43

Ah the 9N! Luckily my other two college buddies lived in Quinton and Halesowen, so we could stop there!

Think much of the Hagley Road is red light, yes. That's why it's probably best to stay on the bus, and not get off to sample local taverns!

SpringySunshine · 16/03/2009 14:44

LuLu! How dare you!

Yes, part of it. Not my part, though. It's a very long road. Although I did once have to walk the super-long way home from the bus stop because there was a man on the corner of my road having a wank & I didn't want to walk past him. That wasn't so good.

At least the traffic noise here also includes trams. It's good to have a bit of variety

& the 9N - you take your life into your hands travelling on that service! I can't think of anywhere else in the world where you're guaranteed to find quite such a mix of undesirables.

Quick question before I go back to work

Having really bad pelvis pains today (sorry if TMI) but it really aches (if you put your hands in between your legs at the front and those pelvis bones there hurt a lot and seem to be having a bit more discharge than normal - no BHs or anything so not getting excited but nay idea what it could be.

Also have started (over the past week or so) to be sick again when I have a big meal - will that hurt LO? - am managing to keep some stuff down each day but normally my evening / lunchtime main meal comes straight back up! grrr

Have drs tomorrow so can check with them too

SmuttyNuttyTaff · 16/03/2009 14:46

i quite like the arcadian and the canals (was v drunk though) love the custard factory too!!

Springy - no offence but when DH found his usual hotel in West Bromwich fully booked he ended up staying on the Hagley Road. They asked him if he wanted the room for the whole night or just by the hour.

Juwesm · 16/03/2009 14:48

BB - any urinary symptoms - burning etc? Wonder if it could be a UTI. Although it could be 'the beginnings' and a show!!!

I have had morning sickness return with a vengeance in the last couple of weeks, but I find I can keep everything down as long as I eat little and often.

For example, I'll just have a HobNob now.....oh, packet seems to be empty, I'm sure there were more left than that.....

SpringySunshine · 16/03/2009 14:48

Edwards was the first club I went to! Underage, naturally. It burnt down a couple of years ago! My friend was actually there, with his huge goth friend - the goth lost a very expensive leather coat in the cloakroom because it just totally fried & the club wasn't even insured.

Snobs is fantastic & definitely still open. In fact even this time last year I was spending at least one night a week there, drinking £1 shots of watered down vodka & that sticky mess that they claim is Pepsi. I'll always have a very soft spot for that club & its strange walls with faces stuck to them (always good after you've had a few & feel like talking to them ) & floors so sticky you can barely lift your feet to dance

Then there's Subside opposite - open until 6, so when Snobs kicks you out at 3, you stagger across there & get chatted up by giant goth men who all seem to enjoy pulling their hairy scrotums out of their flies in order to woo you in some primitive mating ritual.

LuLuBai · 16/03/2009 14:50

BB - I wouldn't worry about being sick and hurting the baby.

It's quite normal to not be able to eat big meals late in pregnancy. Try to eat little and often. The truth is you are more likely to get a bit run down from being sick than the baby. They are enormously effective leaches on our systems. Are you taking multi-vits or anything?

Juwesm · 16/03/2009 14:50

Nutty - the Arcadian was just too full of trendies for me. And there were hundreds of hen parties out. And the music was just too loud, and the young ladies were hardly wearing any clothes and....is it just me or are policemen getting younger?

Lulu, you manage to make West Brom sound upmarket!! Good work!

BoffinMum · 16/03/2009 14:50

BB, that will probably be the head moving down.

Had a great outing just now!! Went to Burwash for lunch with a friend and sat outside!! Hobbled around some really lovely yummy mummy style shops, and managed to buy loads of top notch pseudo-home cooked meals (eg Venison bake) and cakes (eg tea loaf) for the freezer, as a substitute for me filling it up personally (cooking is not really an option for me right now). The sunshine was gorgeous.

I am just recovering a bit and off to chiro in a minute. Head has popped out of my groin a little bit giving some relief.

SpringySunshine · 16/03/2009 14:51

LuLu, none taken. Birmingham is actually quite rough, I'm coming to realise. I mean I always knew, but I thought that that's just what places were like. Having lived in Sheffield for a few months I'm beginning to be aware that it's not. I'm always surprised at how much (small town) DH has never experienced, though - like people telling you lies about why they need to raise train fare unexpectedly because their dad's got 3 hours to live, or whatever. It's perfectly normal to me, but unheard of where he comes from - & less common than Birmingham pretty much everywhere, I think!

BoffinMum · 16/03/2009 14:52

Also if having problems eating just make yourself a bit of porridge with full fat milk, a teensy bit of salt and some sugar or honey on top, and have that instead of meals. You will get a lot of nutrients from that and it will help with the sickness.

Juwesm · 16/03/2009 14:53

There was also a fabulous kebab shop just round the corner from Snobs. Doner kebab in the back of a taxi - bliss.

I once fell asleep in the toilets at Snobs. I think I was missing for about an hour, my friends were going mental. And, annoyingly, Gorgeous Pete was out with us, and I had ideas, but I went and got so smashed I fell asleep in the loo. Not the way to woo a man.
